“هل لاحظت معى ان أكثر الناس فراغاً هم أكثرهم ضيقاً بالحياة وافتقاداً للسعادة ؟.. هل تعرف السبب ؟ .. أنا أعرفه .. لأن من أكثر أسباب شقاء الإنسان ضيق أفقه وكثرة انشغاله بنفسه وتفكيره فيها باستمرار كما لو كانت محور الكون .. ومن يشكون الفراغ لا يجدون ماينشغلون به سوى أنفسهم , وكلما ازداد انشغال أحدهم بنفسه رآها جديرة بحياة غير حياته”
