since living is scrounging, the result of our efforts is to amass a pile of
rubbish."
- Chuang Tzu/Zhuangzi, China, 4th Century BCE
"The most beautiful order is a heap of sweepings piled up at random."

self-transcendence that could otherwise take the form of drug addiction, terrorism,
suicide, or warfare." - Rollo May
"Life'n'art, art'n'life. There is _no_ separation. Each is a manifestation
of every aspect of the other. This is a difficult game... A difficult game to
play. It seems, to me, like the only game that needs playing at the moment." -
