Summary

This quote suggests that worshipping oneself can provide the greatest happiness compared to other religions. It implies that self-centeredness and prioritizing one's own desires can bring temporary gratification and personal contentment. However, it does not consider the broader aspects of spirituality, community, and deeper meaning that religions often provide. This perspective focuses solely on individual satisfaction without acknowledging other essential elements that religions can offer, such as altruism, compassion, and a sense of purpose beyond oneself.

I wasted time, and now doth time waste me; For now hath time made me his numbering clock: My thoughts are minutes; and with sighs they jar Their watches on unto mine eyes, the outward watch, Whereto my finger, like a dial's point, Is pointing still, in cleansing them from tears. Now sir, the sound that tells what hour it is Are clamorous goans, which strike upon my heart, Which is the bell: so sighs and tears and groans Show minutes, times, and hours.

A big leather-bound volume makes an ideal razor strap. A thin book is useful to stick under a table with a broken caster to steady it. A large, flat atlas can be used to cover a window with a broken pane. And a thick, old-fashioned heavy book with a clasp is the finest thing in the world to throw at a noisy cat.

The most important ingredient we put into any relationship is not what we say or what we do, but what we are. And if our words and our actions come from superficial human relations techniques (the Personality Ethic) rather than from our own inner core (the Character Ethic), others will sense that duplicity. We simply won't be able to create and sustain the foundation necessary for effective interdependence.
