Quote by Deepak Chopra

The intention to live as long as possible isn't one of the mind's best intentions, because quantity isn't the same as quality.

Summary

This quote suggests that the desire to live for a long time should not be considered one of the mind's wisest intentions. It highlights the misconception that a longer life automatically equates to a better life. Instead, it emphasizes that the quality of life is more important than simply the length of it. This implies that pursuing experiences and choices that enhance well-being and fulfillment, rather than solely focusing on longevity, can lead to a more meaningful and satisfying existence.

...And in prayer this real I struggles to speak, for once from his being, and to address, for once, not the other actors, but--what shall I call Him? the Author, for He invented us all? The Producer, for He controls all? Or the Audience, for He watches, and will judge the performance? The attempt is not to escape from space and time and from my creaturely situation as a subject facing objects. It is more modest: to re-awaken the awareness of that situation. If that can be done, there is no need to go anywhere else. This situation itself is, at every moment, a possible theophany. Here is the holy ground; the Bush is burning now.
