After A Long Day, Folk Rest At Night. After A Long Summer, Folk Play Games And Sit About In The Winter. After A Long Life Folk Sit About The Fire And Stay Warm, For The Chill Of Death Is Upon Them, And Even The Thickest Bearskin Can't Keep Off The Shivering.

The Body, The Mind, And The Spirit Don't Form A Pyramid, They Form A Circle. Each Of Them Runs Into The Other Two. The Body Isn't Below The Mind And The Spirit; From The Point Of View It's Between Them. If You Reside Too Much In The Mind, Then You Get Too Abstract And Cut Off From The World. You Long For The Spiritual Life, But You Can't Get To It, And You Fall Into Despair. The Exercise Of The Senses Frees You From Abstraction And Opens The Way To Transcendence.
