Talk about it only enough to do it. Dream about it only enough to feel it. Think about it only enough to understand it. Contemplate it only enough to be it.
Men try to run life according to their wishes; life runs itself according to necessity.
The realization of ignorance is the first act of knowing.
I am not less poet; I am more conscious of all that I am, am not, and might become.
