“ | Mind is like the void in which there is no confusion or evil, as when the sun wheels through it shining upon the four corners of the world. For, when the sun rises and illuminates the whole earth, the void gains not in brilliance; and, when the sun sets, the void does not darken. The phenomena of light and dark alternate with each other, but the nature of the void remains unchanged. | ” |

“ | Most people of this world are always longing for something - always, in a word, seeking. But the wise wake up. They choose reason over custom. They fix their minds on the sublime and let their bodies change with the seasons. All phenomena are empty. They contain nothing worth desiring. Calamity forever alternates with Prosperity! To dwell in the three realms is to dwell in a burning house. To have a body is to suffer. Does anyone with a body know peace? Those who understand this detach themselves from all that exists and stop Imagining or Seeking anything. So the saying goes: "to seek is to suffer." | ” |

“ | ...And the victim is you and me, it's sick, but it's true indeed
The good die, mostly over bullshit, repeatedly Deep in me there's a part that wants nothing but love But the rest of me know, war is what's waitin' for us So I stays ready, keep my pay heavy and boss up Stack my funds and my guns, never rely on luck... |
