"Our minds can be wonderful, but at the same time they can be our very worst enemy. They give us so much trouble. Sometimes I wish the mind were like a set of dentures, which we could take out and leave on our bedside table overnight. At least we would get a break from its tiring and tiresome escapades." --Sögyal Rinpoche

Viscous, everywhere, in the food we eat, in the widescale destruction. Sorry for all caps, but I used to wonder this... and now I know.
