Patience is an ever present alternative
to the mind's endemic restlessness and impatience.
Scratch the surface of impatience and what you will find
lying beneath it, subtly or not so subtly, is anger.
It's the strong energy of not wanting things to be the way they are
and blaming someone (often yourself) or something for it.
This doesn't mean you can't hurry when you have to.
It is possible even to hurry patiently, mindfully,
moving fast because you have chosen to.
- Jon Kabat-Zinn
There are no facts, only interpretations.
- Friedrich Nietzsche

and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
- Marilyn Monroe

No one can eliminate prejudices -
just recognize them.
