“We have seen the best minds of our generation destroyed by boredom at poetry readings.”
“I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness, starving...”
“I’ve seen excitement, and I’ve seen boredom. And boredom was best.”
“Mindful consumption is the object of this precept. We are what we consume. If we look deeply into the items that we consume every day, we will come to know our own nature very well. We have to eat, drink, consume, but if we do it unmindfully, we may destroy our bodies and our consciousness, showing ingratitude toward our ancestors, our parents, and future generations (66).”
“We destroy things with our curiosity. We shatter with our best intentions”
“Poetry is the record of the best and happiest moments of the happiest and best minds”
