The less the mind understands and the more things it perceives$$$ the greater its power of feigning is; and the more things it understands$$$ the more that power is diminished.
Not to laugh$$$ not to lament$$$ not to detest$$$ but to understand.
In time you will know this well: For time$$$ and time alone$$$ will show the just man$$$ though scoundrels are discovered in a day.
Tomorrow is tomorrow.<br>Future cares have future cures$$$<br>And we must mind today.
Samuel Beckett once said$$$ "Every word is like an unnecessary stain on silence and nothingness."...On the other hand$$$ he SAID it.
One should never do wrong in return$$$ nor mistreat any man$$$ no matter how one has been mistreated by him.
The secret of happiness$$$ you see$$$ is not found in seeking more$$$ but in developing the capacity to enjoy less.
Know thyself.
Nowadays I know the true reason I read is to feel less alone$$$ to make a connection with a consciousness other than my own.
When I write I am trying to express my way of being in the world. This is primarily a process of elimination: once you have removed all the dead language$$$ the second-hand dogma$$$ the truths that are not your own but other people's$$$ the mottos$$$ the slogans$$$ the out-and-out lies of your nation$$$ the myths of your historical moment - once you have removed all that warps experience into a shape you do not recognise and do not believe in - what you are left with is something approximating the truth of your own conception.
