The truth is, part of me is every age. I delight in being a child when itโs appropriate to be a child. I delight in being a wise old man when itโs appropriate to be a wise old man. Think of all I can be! I am every age, up to my own.
Morrie SchwartzWe've got a form of brainwashing going on in our countryโฆ. Do you know how they brainwash people? They repeat something over and over. And that's what we do in this country. Owning things is good. More money is good. More property is good. More commercialism is good. MORE IS GOOD. MORE IS GOOD. We repeat it--and have it repeated to us--over and over until nobody bothers to even think otherwise. The average person is so fogged up by all this, he has no perspective on what's really important anymore.
Morrie SchwartzWell, the truth is, if you really listen to that bird on your shoulder, if you accept that you can die at any timeโthen you might not be as ambitious as you are.
