“All beings tremble before violence.
All fear death.
All love life.
See yourself in others.
Then whom can you hurt?
What harm can you do?”

“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”

“How beautiful they are,
The lordly ones
Who dwell in the hills,
In the hollow hills.
They have faces like flowers, And their breath is wind
That blows over grass
Filled with dewy clover.
Their limbs are more white . .
Than shafts of moonshine :
They are more fleet Than the March wind.
They laugh and are glad And are terrible :
When their lances shake
Every green reed quivers.
How beautiful they are,
How beautiful
The lordly ones
In the hollow hills.”
