I hate this night. I hate that it makes me a person so truly removed from the real me; this man who sits in silence in his parlor – purposely quarantined from his family – is not who I want to be. But on Halloween night, this awful impostor wafts...
Sit still with me in the shade of these green trees, which have no weightier thought than the withering of their leaves when autumn arrives, or the stretching of their many stiff fingers into the cold sky of the passing winter. Sit still with me and ...
The time will come when, with elation you will greet yourself arriving at your own door, in your own mirror and each will smile at the other's welcome, and say, sit here. Eat. You will love again the stranger who was your self. Give wine. Give bread....
Become the person of no rank. Become the noble soul, and live in this awakened way, not imitating anyone. Whatever the circumstances your life asks of you, respond to them in your own individual Zen-spirited way. Don't waste any time trying to be som...
You guys like to tell jokes and giggle and kid around, huh? Giggling like a bunch of young broads in a school yard. Well, let me tell you a joke: Five guys sitting in a bull pen, San Quentin. Wondering how the fuck they got there. What'd we do wrong?...
There was a time we laughed at the old guys up on the hill. The ones who graduated a couple of years before us, and who would hang around the school and the ballpark still, and would sit on the hoods of their cars and tell us how when they were senio...
You sit at the edge of the world, I am in a crater that's no more. Words without letters Standing in the shadow of the door. The moon shines down on a sleeping lizard, Little fish rain from the sky. Outside the window there are soldiers, steeling the...

Kate McCallister: Did I turn off the coffee? Peter McCallister: No... I did. Kate McCallister: Did you lock up? Peter McCallister: Yeah. Kate McCallister: Did we set the timers on the lights? Peter McCallister: Yeah. Kate McCallister: Did you close t...
Half of me is filled with bursting words and half of me is painfully shy. I crave solitude yet also crave people. I want to pour life and love into everything yet also nurture my self-care and go gently. I want to live within the rush of primal, intu...
Sitting meditation begins with good posture.
Actually it was the mark of the stupid, which is what you get for sitting under a tree during a thunderstorm.
Gardens are not made by singing 'Oh, how beautiful!' and sitting in the shade.
Good leaders sacrifice for others to survive; bad leaders sacrifice others to survive
In life we sit at the table and refuse to eat, and in death we are eternally hungry.
You can't consume much if you sit still and read books.
Sure I played, did you think I was born at the age of 70 sitting in a dugout trying to manage guys like you?
My father was from the South and turned me into a news junkie at a very early age. I would sit and watch TV with him.
We are in an age of technology where we sit in our little cubicles and we IM each other and Skype each other and never connect as human beings.
We're a depraved civilization. All this technology, all the computer games and the iPhones... nobody will sit for art anymore. What a dismaying state of humanity.
It's a shame because we experienced probably the greatest thing - in art, in pop - we'll ever do. And it would be good to sit around and talk about it.
