“Without deep reflection one knows from daily life that one exist for other people”

“How strange is the lot of us mortals! Each of us is here for a brief sojourn; for what purpose he knows not, though he senses it. But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people.”

“But without deeper reflection one knows from daily life that one exists for other people--first of all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness is wholly dependent, and then for the many, unknown to us, to whose destinies we are bound by the ties of sympathy.”

“We know from daily life that we exist for other people first of all, for whose smiles and well-being our own happiness depends.”

“There is one class to whom reflection is a fault; is not only a fault, is a sin; is not only a sin, is an atrocity - who cannot bear to exist without their own existence dis-existencing somebody else's existence.”

“You know, feeling and action are always linked, one can't exist without the other. It's sort of a hippie thing.-Wes”
