A human being is a part of the whole, called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.

Our task must be to free from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty.

Love, love, love -- all the wretched cant of it, masking egotism, lust, masochism, fantasy under a mythology of sentimental postures, a welter of self-induced miseries and joys, blinding and masking the essential personalities in the frozen gestures of courtship, in the kissing and the dating and the desire, the compliments and the quarrels which vivify its barrenness.

But instead of becoming cramped and crowded, the space expands, and you discover rooms you never knew you had until your friend moved in with you.
-- Steve Tesich
