Plants are more courageous than almost all human beings. An orange tree would rather die than produce lemons, whereas instead of dying the average person would rather be someone they are not.

He was sad, truly deeply sad. His sadness was not the sadness of florid youth, nor simply the sadness of lovers. It was a more profound and greater sadness, a sadness inherent in the innermost reaches of human life. The flowing of moving waters, the withering of blossoming flowers-when encountering that irresistible force which is deep within nature, there is nothing as wretched nor as transient as man.
Tayama Katai, Futon
Man is a strange, inauthentic creature who has very little contact with real Existence. Intellectuals cut themselves off from reality by trapping themselves in a world of concepts; ordinary men are cut off from reality because they are so self-absorbed, so involved in the pettiness of everyday existence. They live in a meaningless world because they find it so difficult to mean anything. [ . . . ] We are all trapped in a world of dreams inside our own skulls, and nothing short of the threat of immediate death will wake us up to the intense appreciation of our lives. We have forgotten that the world out there really exists. For most of us, it is a shadow world.
