Mark Greif Quotes

Build Peaks, And Former Highlands Become Flatlands--ordinary Topography Loses Its Allure. The Attempt To Make Our Lives Not A Waste, By Seeking A Few Most Remarkable Incidents, Will Make The Rest Of Our Lives A Waste. The Concept Of Experience Turns Us Into Dwellers In A Plateau Village Who Hold On To A Myth Of The Happier Race Of People Who Live On The Peaks. We Climb Up Occasionally, But Only With Preparation, For Short Expeditions. We Can't Stay There, And Everyone Is Restless And Unsatisfied At Home.
