The only Zen you can find on the tops of mountains is the Zen you bring up there.
From Robert M. Pirsig
The only Zen you find on the tops of mountains is the Zen you bring up there.
Boredom always precedes a period of great creativity.
The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands, and then work outward from there.
The solutions all are simple - after you have arrived at them. But they're simple only when you know already what they are.
The place to improve the world is first in one's own heart and head and hands.
The truth knocks on the door and you say, go away, I'm looking for the truth, and it goes away. Puzzling.
To live for some future goal is shallow. It's the sides of the mountain that sustain life, not the top.
It is not good to talk about Zen, because Zen is nothingness... If you talk about it, you are always lying, and if you don't talk about it, no one knows it is there.
For me, a writer should be more like a lighthouse keeper, just out there by himself. He shouldn't get his ideas from other people all around him.
