"It Is Extremely Difficult To Stay Alert And Attentive, Instead Of Getting Hypnotized By The Constant

"It is extremely difficult to stay alert and attentive, instead of getting hypnotized by the constant monologue inside your own head."

- David Foster Wallace

The art of observing without allowing the compulsion of analysis and judgement take over immediately is the highest form of human intellect.

Loving the earth, seeing what has been done to it, I grow sharp, I grow cold. Where will the trilliums go, and the coltsfoot? Where will the pond lilies go to continue living their simple, penniless lives, lifting their faces of gold? Impossible to believe we need so much as the world wants us to buy. I have more clothes, lamps, dishes, paper clips than I could possibly use before I die. Oh, I would like to live in an empty house, with vines for walls, and a carpet of grass. No planks, no plastic, no fiberglass. And I suppose sometime I will. Old and cold I will lie apart from all this buying and selling, with only the beautiful earth in my heart.
