“People’s affections can be as thin as paper; life is like a game of chess, changing with each move.”
—Chinese proverb.
“My advice to people today is as follows: If you take the game of life seriously, if you take your nervous system seriously, if you take your sense organs seriously, if you take the energy process seriously, you must turn on, tune in, and drop out.”
