The interest
in life does not lie in what people do, nor even in their
relations to each other, but largely in the power to
communicate with a third party, antagonistic, enigmatic, yet
perhaps persuadable, which one may call life in general.
-- Virginia Woolf
1882-1941, British Novelist,
Essayist
Life is not a
series of gig lamps symmetrically arranged; life is a
luminous halo, a semi-transparent envelope surrounding us
from the beginning of consciousness to the end.
-- Virginia Woolf
1882-1941, British Novelist,

The longer I
live the more beautiful life becomes. If you foolishly
ignore beauty, you will soon find yourself without it. Your
life will be impoverished. But if you invest in beauty, it
will remain with you all the days of your life.
-- Frank Lloyd Wright
1869-1959, American Architect
I have an
existential map; it has you are here written all over it.

Two babies
were born on the same day at the same hospital. They lay
there and looked at each other. Their families came and took
them away. Eighty years later, by a bizarre coincidence,
they lay in the same hospital, on their deathbeds, next to
each other. One of them looked at the other and said, so.
What did you think?

The purpose of

-- Maharishi Mahesh Yogi
Indian Spiritual Teacher,

The continuous
invention of new ways of observing is man's special secret
of living.
