“[Man] sacrifices his health in order to make money.
Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health.
And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present;
the result being that he does not live in the present or the future;
he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.” —Dalai Lama XIV (when asked what surprised him most about humanity)

Never Again
I asked my brother for a free notebook he’d just got along with other gratis - he simply said, “you want it, but I don’t want to give it to you”.
I looked back at him, “okay, babe, you will never get anything from me”.

“When your legs get weaker time starts running faster”
—Mikhail Turovsky (b. 1933)
“The stars drew light across the night sky in that little mountain village, and the silence and the cold made the darkness vanish away. It was - I don’t know how to explain it - as if everything solid melted away into the ether, eliminating all individualtiy and absorbing us, rigid, into the immense darkness. Not a single cloud to lend perspective to the space blocked any portion of the starry sky.”
—Ernesto Che Guevara (from The Motorcycle Diaries)
