George Saunders Quotes
The Mind Is A Machine That Is Constantly Asking: What Would I Prefer? Close Your Eyes, Refuse To Move, And Watch What Your Mind Does. What It Does Is Become Discontent With That Which Is. A Desire Arises, You Satisfy That Desire, And Another Arises In Its Place. This Wanting And Rewanting Is An Endless Cycle For Which, Turns Out, There Is Already A Name: Samsara. Samsara Is At The Heart Of The Vast Human Carnival: Greed, Neurosis, Mad Ambition, Adultery, Crimes Of Passion, The Hacking To Death Of A Terrified Man On A Hillside In The Name Of A More Pure And Thus Perfect Nation
and All Of This Takes Place Because We Believe We Will Be Made Happy Once Our Desires Have Been Satisfied.
I Know This. But Still I'm Full Of Desire ...
Buddha Boy
