More on Significance
“There's nothing tiny or insignificant. Everything is significant. And everything flows on the same basis of Laws. Whether you are looking at world events or something that's happening in your kitchen drawer, broad and important, or narrow and seemingly insignificant, there's potential for connection or disconnection in either case. And it is only the connection or the disconnection that is of really any importance.”
“Every man is wanted, and no man is wanted much.”
“We are standing on a whale fishing for minnows.”

“The performance of duty, and not an indulgence in vapid ease and vapid pleasure, is all that makes life worth while.”
