“There is no greater joke than this: that being the Reality ourselves, we seek to gain Reality. A day will dawn when you will yourself laugh at your effort. That which is on the day of laughter is also now.”
-Ramana Maharshi
“Have no fear. Everything exists, everything is true, and the earth is only a little dust under our feet.”
-W.B. Yeats
“We shall not cease from exploration
and the end of all our exploring
will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.”
-T.S. Eliot
“I aspire to be as little as possible; that precisely is the core of my melancholy.”
-Kierkegaard
“My hut lies in the middle of a dense forest;
Every year the green ivy grows longer.
No news of the affairs of men,
Only the occasional song of a woodcutter.
The sun shines and I mend my robe;
When the moon comes out I read Buddhist poems.
I have nothing to report, my friends.
If you want to find the meaning, stop chasing after so many things.”
-Ryokan
