“The meaning of ichigo ichie is something like this: What we are experiencing right now will never happen again. and therefore, we must value each moment like a beautiful treasure.
Anger is almost always a destructive emotion, as the Buddha taught: "Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else:you are the one who gets burned."
Anger keeps us tied to the past, preventing us from enjoying the here and now.
Learning to see the beauty of things also allows us to make them beautiful.
Chanoyu is a call for us to pay attention to all five senses and to be anchored in the present, making the ceremony an art that goes far beyond drinking tea.
Having problems is part of being alive. It is our difficulties and how we face them, more than our periods of contentment, that shape us throughout the course of our lives.
The moment is a jealous lover that demands we give it our all. Every unrepeatable moment is a small oasis of happiness. And many oases together make an ocean of happiness.
Journeys into the past and the future are often painful and nearly always useless. You can't change what happened. You can't know what will happen. But here in this moment, all the possibilities in the world are alive.
The simple fact of stepping away from the daily whirlwind of hurry and obligations will open the doors to well-being.”

“De zondagsneurose, bijvoorbeeld, doet haar opwachting wanneer de doordeweekse verplichtingen en drukte wegvallen en de persoon zijn innerlijke leegte gewaarwordt. Daar moeten dan oplossingen voor worden gezocht. En bovenal een doel, een reden om het bed uit te komen.”

“ഞങ്ങൾ ദീർഘായുസ്സിന്റെ ഗ്രാമമായ ഒഗീമി സന്ദർശിച്ചപ്പോൾ, എൺപതിനും തൊണ്ണൂറിനും മീതെയുള്ളവർ പോലും വളരെ കർമോൽസുകരാണ്. അവർ ജനാലയിലൂടെ പുറത്തേക്കു നോക്കി വീട്ടിൽ നിൽക്കുന്നവരല്ല, വെറുതെ പത്രം വായിച്ച് ചടഞ്ഞിരിക്കുന്നവരല്ല. ഒഗീമിയിലെ ജനങ്ങൾ ധാരാളം നടക്കുന്നവരാണ്, അയൽക്കാർക്കൊപ്പം കരോക്കെ ചെയ്യുന്നവരാണ്, രാവിലെ നേരത്തെ എഴുന്നേൽക്കുന്നവരാണ്, പ്രഭാതഭക്ഷണം കഴിഞ്ഞാൽ, അല്ലെങ്കിൽ അതിനുമുമ്പേ സ്വന്തം തോട്ടങ്ങളിലേക്ക് പോകുന്നവരാണ്. അവർ വ്യായാമത്തിന് ജിംനേഷ്യങ്ങളിലേക്ക് പോകുന്നവരല്ല, അമിതമായ വ്യായാമം ചെയ്യുന്നവരല്ല, പകരം, തങ്ങളുടെ ദൈനംദിന ജോലികൾ കൃത്യമായി ചെയ്യുന്നവരാണ്.”
