“Waiting is a state of mind. Basically, it means that you want the future; you don't want the present. You don't want what you've got, and you want what you haven't got. With every kind of waiting, you unconsciously create inner conflict between your here and now, where you don't want to be, and the projected future, where you want to be. This greatly reduces the quality of your life by making you lose the present.”
“I have spent my life going from mania to mania. Somehow it has all paid off.”
More on Seriousness

“Pleasantry is never good on serious points, because it always regards subjects in that point of view in which it is not the purpose to consider them.”
