More From George Bernard Shaw

Your wits can't thicken in that soft moist air, on those white springy roads, in those misty rushes and brown bogs, on those hillsides of granite rocks and magenta heather. you've no such colours in the sky, no such lure in the distances, no such sadness in the evenings. oh the dreaming! the dreaming! the torturing, heart-scalding, never satisfying dreaming, dreaming, dreaming, dreaming!
Dream Distance Sadness
Jesus tapped me on the shoulder and said, bob, why are you resisting me? i said, i'm not resisting you! he said, you gonna follow me? i said, i've never thought about that before! he said, when you're not following me, you're resisting me.
Jesus Bob Follow Me

Fruit in the morning is such a big joy for me. i like to grab fruit from the tree et cetera. i don't feel that way with vegetables. fruit you can eat it at any time, any moment, in any type of situation. i like everything about fruit, i like the color.

The whole idea of emotions being something we can't escape as humans, but that deep suffering that comes from resisting them, we can move out of that just by not resisting anymore. but it takes a really brave warrior soul to sit there in these emotions that admittedly don't feel good in the body.

Nothing is more dangerous than to stop working. it is a habit that can soon be lost, one that is easily neglected and hard to resume. a measure of day-dreaming is a good thing, like a drug prudently used ... but too much submerges and drowns. woe to the intellectual worker who allows himself to lapse wholly from positive thinking into day-dreaming. he thinks he can easily change back, and tells himself that it is all one. he is wrong! to substitute day-dreaming for thought is to confuse poison with a source of nourishment.
