Nature doesn’t sustain that which only lives for a day. It pours the whole of itself into each moment. Life’s bounty is in its flow.

Attention is the beginning of devotion…distraction and care are incompatible…you [can only] truly love…or savor the moment only to the extent of which you could hold your attention.

…because for us it is even more necessary not to have leisure to stop and think. Haste is universal, because everyone is in flight from himself… or we plan, compulsively, because the alternative is to confront how little control over the future we really have…our cultures ideas is that you alone control your schedule… [because is scary that most of what we want depends on cooperation with others].
