It is with the soul that we grasp the essence of another human being, not with the mind, nor even with the heart.

Giving and receiving are at bottom one thing, dependent on whether one lives open or closed. Living openly one becomes a medium, a transmitter; living thus, as a river, one experiences life to the full, flows along with the current of life, and dies in order to live again as an ocean.

Until we lose ourselves there is no hope of finding ourselves.

The goal of life is not to possess power but to radiate it.

The art of living is based on rhythm - on give & take, ebb & flow, light & dark, life & death. By acceptance of all aspects of life, good & bad, right & wrong, yours & mine, the static, defensive life, which is what most people are cursed with, is converted into a dance, 'the dance of life,' metamorphosis.

Even the idiot may have a message for us

I'd rather sit down and write a letter than call someone up. I hate the telephone.
