Any systems approaching perfect self-control also approaches perfect self-frustration.

Parts exist only for purposes of figuring and describing, and as we figure the world out we become confused if we do not remember this all the time.

The reason we want to go on and on is because we live in an impoverished present.

The myths underlying our culture and underlying our common sense have not taught us to feel identical with the universe, but only parts of it, only in it, only confronting it - aliens... within I don't know how many years, but in not too long a time, it's going to become basic common sense that you are not some alien being who confronts an external world that is not you, but that almost every intelligent person will have the feeling of being an activity of the entire universe.

But we must not suffer over the suffering.

We identify in our exerience a differentiation between what we do and what happens to us.

The past and the future are abstractions without any concrete reality.
