Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a
state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.

They are not long, the weeping and the laughter,
Love and desire and hate:
I think they have no portion in us after
We pass the gate.
They are not long, the days of wine and roses;
Out of a misty dream
Our path emerges for a while, then closes
Within a dream.

However mean your life is, meet it and live it: do not shun it and call it hard names. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb,
like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Things do not change, we change. Sell
your clothes and keep your thoughts.

Deliver me from writers who say the way they live doesn't matter. I'm not sure a bad person can write a good book. If art
doesn't make us better, then what on earth is it for.

Life is a train of moods like a string of beads; and as we pass through them they prove to be many colored lenses, which
paint the world their own hue, and each shows us only what lies in its own focus.

Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a
succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed.

Love—is anterior to Life—
Posterior—to Death—
Initial of Creation, and
The Exponent of Earth—

I think that taking life seriously means something such as this: that whatever man does on this planet has to be done in the
lived truth of the terror of creation, of the grotesque, of the rumble of panic underneath everything. Otherwise it is false.
Whatever is achieved must be achieved with the full exercise of passion, of vision, of pain, of fear, and of sorrow. How do
we know ... that our part of the meaning of the universe might not be a rhythm in sorrow?

There are two ways to slide easily through life: to believe everything or to doubt everything; both ways save us from
thinking.
