If Quality were dropped, only rationality would remain unchanged. - Robert M. Pirsig

We keep passing unseen through little moments of other people’s lives.

Bouncing on beds, I remember from childhood, is a great depression reliever.

Mountains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and without desire. The reality of your own nature should determine the speed. If you become restless, speed up. If you become winded, slow down. You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between restlessness and exhaustion. Then, when you're no longer thinking ahead, each footstep isn't just a means to an end but a unique event in itself....To live only for some future goal is shallow. It's the sides of the mountains which sustain life, not the top.
