“When you ride in a boat and watch the shore, you might assume that the shore is moving. But when you keep your eyes closely on the boat, you can see that the boat moves.

But when you practice intimately and return to where you are, it will be clear that there is nothing that has unchanging self.”
― Dogen

― Ken Kesey, Kesey's Garage Sale

“People who deny the existence of dragons are often eaten by dragons. From within.”
