The fundamental desire of life is the desire to exist.

In our desire for eternal life we pray for an eternity of our habit and comfort, forgetting that immortality is in repeatedly transcending the definite forms of life in order to pursue the infinite truth of life.

That I exist is a perpetual surprise which is life.

We believe that mere movement is life, and that the more velocity it has, the more it expresses vitality.

I have spent my days stringing and unstringing my instrument while the song I came to sing remains unsung.

Even he whose near ones have all died, one by one, is not alone-companionship comes for him from behind the screen of death.
