Always remember this:
Small problems from mighty problems grow.

Once upon a time a man heard the statement "if you do not comment on intangibles,
they cease to exist," and said to himself, "That is foolish -- intangibles, by their very definition,
do not exist." Then he thought on the matter a bit more and said, "Except for such matters
as love, anger, approval, rejection, and such as that." He then pondered what he'd just said a mite further,
and suddenly the true meaning of the statement struck him.
If you do not comment on intangibles, they do not exist.

Everyone in the world can have fun (or at least they know what it would
take for them to have some) except for those wanting to awaken.

(What d'ya make of that, Serious Britches?
But, you know, really! the problem's not simply in "being serious" itself,
but rather in knowing precisely what to be serious about.
No it's the hell not! -- the damn problem's in simply being the frig
serious, period. ...When you gonna get that straight?)

 

A mystic asked his audience, "What is it that you picture will be gained
even if you do unravel a puzzle that is purely imaginary?"
(And the name of that sermon is "How Come They Ain't No Answer
To 'Dat Question?")

If the unabating annotating is the individual illness,
then common knowledge is the public plague.

Just because everyone's sure that they're "conscious of themselves"
doesn't prove that what they're conscious of is themselves.
