"We mostly spend [life] conjugating three verbs: to Want, to Have and to
Do. Craving, clutching and fussing, on the material, political, social,
emotional, intellectual, even on the religious plane, we are kept in perpetual
unrest: forgetting that none of these verbs have any ultimate significance,
except so far as they are transcended by and included in, the fundamental verb,
to Be: and that Being, not wanting, having and doing, is the essence of the
spiritual life." ~ Evelyn
