You don’t know what you’ve got within you. A person either creates or he destroys. There is no neutrality … - Saul Bellow

Bringing people into the here-and-now. The real universe. That's the present moment. The past is no good to us. The future is full of anxiety. Only the present is real — the here-and-now. Seize the day.

Death is the dark backing that a mirror needs if we are to see anything.

I wish my dead days would quit bothering me and leave me alone. The bad stuff keeps coming back, and it's the worst rhythm there is. The repetition of a man's bad self, that's the worst suffering that's ever been known.
