“If you say that getting the money is the most important thing, you will spend your life completely wasting your time. You’ll be doing things you don’t like doing in order to go on living; that is, to go on doing things you don’t like doing—which is stupid. Better to have a short life that is full of what you like doing, than a long life spent in a miserable way.” – Alan Watts

"There are states of consciousness in which you can listen to sound and realize that is the whole point of being alive, just to go with this particular energy manifestation that is happening right at this moment—to be it. The whole world is the energy playing, doing all this, like a kaleidoscope jazzing." – Alan Watts
