Stop measuring days by degree of productivity and start experiencing them by degree of presence.
Alan WattsYou and I are all as much continuous with the physical universe as a wave is continuous with the ocean.
Alan WattsNo work or love will flourish out of guilt, fear, or hollowness of heart, just as no valid plans for the future can be made by those who have no capacity for living now.
Alan WattsI would suggest that today, we know about as much concerning the human mind as we knew about the galaxy in 1300.
Alan WattsTime is a social institution and not a physical reality. There is no such thing as time in the natural world - the world of stars and waters, clouds, mountains and living organisms. There is such a thing as rhythm - rhythm of tides, rhythm of biological processes... There is rhythm and there is motion. Time is a way of measuring motion.
Alan Watts
