Philosopher, Jacob Needleman:
Almost all of us are gasping for more time. We are starving. And all of the devices and techniques that our inventive culture offers only increase the yearning for time - like the food of Hell that makes the eater hungrier. Our cell phones, computers and fax machines and the countless other inventions that "save time" only starve us more and more, exactly like the food of Hell. We are paying for these things with our time, with our lives, which is our time.
[From Time and the Soul:63]
Irish poet, artist, & mystic, George Russell ("AE"):
One of the first symptoms of the loss of soul is
the loss of the sense of beauty.
