How beautiful life is and how sad! How fleeting, with no past and no future, only a limitless <em>now</em>. - James Clavell

Patience means holding back your inclination to the seven emotions: hate, adoration, joy, anxiety, anger, grief, fear. If you don’t give way to the seven, you’re patient, then you’ll soon understand all manner of things and be in harmony with Eternity.’

Only by living at the edge of death can you understand the indescribable joy of life.

All gods bear witness! The Jade Gate and the One-Eyed Monk are truly yin and yang, truly everlasting, truly godlike, both insatiable however much one consumes the other.
