When we attempt to exercise power or control over someone else, we cannot avoid giving that person the very same power or control over us.

The wake doesn't drive the ship

Life is like music for its own sake. We are living in an eternal now, and when we listen to music we are not listening to the past, we are not listening to the future, we are listening to an expanded present.

Everything is perpetually becoming new.

Man suffers only because he takes seriously what the gods made for fun.

Everyone is the fabric and structure of existence.
