“Was not their mistake once more bred of the life of slavery that they had been living?—a life which was always looking upon everything, except mankind, animate and inanimate—‘nature,’ as people used to call it—as one thing, and mankind as another, it was natural to people thinking in this way, that they should try to make ‘nature’ their slave, since they thought ‘nature’ was something outside them” — William Morris

Oh Trungpa
“Genuineness is truly feeling oneself as a human being. From that, you
begin to realize that there is no fundamental problem with your human
existence. Nothing about you needs to be destroyed, or razed; no warfare
is necessary. That is the ultimate idea of warriorship: being
all-victorious. If you have to fight, you are not all-victorious. When
you are all-victorious, you don’t have to conquer anything.”
