Money, Eric Hoffer

Every era has a currency that buys souls. In some the currency is pride, in others it is hope, in still others it is a holy cause. There are of course times when hard cash will buy souls, and the remarkable thing is that such times are marked by civility, tolerance, and the smooth working of everyday life.

- Eric Hoffer, Before the Sabbath (1979), p. 139

Life, Sri Chinmoy

Since life is but a continuous series of experiences, everything ultimately helps me towards my final enlightenment.
