Have you ever seen classes where tigers are taught to hunt, monkeys to jump
or cows being trained to abstain from eating flesh? Then what are we being

In every man's heart there is a secret nerve that answers to the vibrations of beauty.
-Christopher Morley
It would be too easy to say that I feel invisible. Instead, I feel painfully visible, and entirely ignored.
-David Levithan
A priest once quoted to me the Roman saying that a religion is dead when the priests laugh at each other across the altar. I always laugh at the altar, be it Christian, Hindu, or Buddhist, because real religion is the transformation of anxiety into laughter.
-Alan Wilson Watts
