The Beautiful and the Grotesque Quotes

“Faith in life is not an abstract idea to the Buddhist. Faith in life is faith that as long as one foot precedes the other, the journey will be accomplished. So the priest advises us to "walk on!" We should proceed with our lives as we find them - seeing with the eyes, smelling with the nose, hearing with the ears, and touching with the fingers. When we derive satisfaction from seeing, hearing, smelling, and touching -- from sleeping and walking - from the everyday experience of life, then we are able to enjoy the resignation that comes from enlightenment.”
― John McVittie, The Beautiful and the Grotesque
