"I don't believe one grows older. I think that what happens early on in life is that at a certain age one stands still and stagnates."

T. S. Eliot

The community stagnates without the impulse of the individual. The impulse dies away without the sympathy of the community.

William James

Coco Chanel

"I think that their flight from and hatred of technology is self-defeating. The Buddha rests quite as comfortably in the circuits of a digital computer of the gears of a cycle transmission as he does at the top of a mountain or in the petals of a flower. To think otherwise is to demean the Buddha--which is to demean oneself."
