Oh, there’s Kyoshi, taking in the flowers. There she goes now, pondering the new calligraphy from the Air Temple.

“The happiest people are not the ones who achieve the most. They are the ones who spend more time than others in a state of flow.”
Hector Garcia Puigcerver, Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life

Michael  Harris
“Our best thinkers may also crave solitude because, as Storr notes, “ideas are sensitive plants which wilt if exposed to premature scrutiny.”25”
Michael Harris, Solitude: In Pursuit of a Singular Life in a Crowded World

Michael  Harris
“Perhaps future generations will hack the system, move at will between storytelling technologies. As for me, I was retreating from the social option. I began taking myself to the water’s edge in order to read—away from the phone and the terrible Cyclops eye of my modem. On the seawall, bundled against wind and propped up with a sweater for a seat, I rediscovered a frame of mind that I was in danger of forgetting—real, trance-like reading that obliterated my anxieties, my fussing daily life.”
Michael Harris, Solitude: In Pursuit of a Singular Life in a Crowded World

Michael  Harris
“The daydreamer is like the tree in which she crouches, oblivious to the red-faced plans of industry. It’s understood that if someone were to come along and put her mind “to use,” she would gain little from the interruption.”
Michael Harris, Solitude: In Pursuit of a Singular Life in a Crowded World

Michael  Harris
“Switching our allegiance from one Big Brother to the next cannot purchase independent thought.”
Michael Harris, Solitude: In Pursuit of a Singular Life in a Crowded World
