Listen without prejudice, without interpreting any conclusions, either your own or those of another; listen to understand and not merely to refute or accept.

J. Krishnamurti (via thebuddhistmind)

Whatever you describe to another person is also a revelation of who you are and who you think you are. You cannot describe anything without betraying your point of view, your aspirations, your fears, your hopes. Everything.

“To feel the pressures of consciousness, to be informed, to understand anything, one must be alone. Being with people, being alone—like breathing in and breathing out, systole and diastole. As long as I’m so afraid of being alone, I’ll never be real. I’m in hiding from myself.”

— Susan Sontag, As Consciousness is Harnessed to Flesh: Journals and Notebooks, 1964-1980

“I don’t know where to stop, or how to go on. I stop when I shouldn’t. I go on when I should stop. There is weariness. But there is also defiance. Together they define me these days. Together they steal my sleep, and together they restore my soul.”

— Arundhati Roy, The Ministry of Utmost Happiness
