• When properly applied, the kamae reflects the ninja's heart.
  This means that our physical nature conforms to our intentions,
  and there is no division between our interior and exterior
  aspects. This state of integrated mind and body action is
  totally natural, and can be observed readily in the movements
  of animals as they interact with their environment. Only human
  beings seem to develop the need to be trained in natural body
  motion.

• Many statements about God are confidently made by theologians on grounds that today at least sound specious. Thomas Aquinas claimed to prove that God cannot make another God, or commit suicide, or make a man without a soul, or even make a triangle whose interior angles do not equal 180 degrees. But Bolyai and Lobachevsky were able to accomplish this last feat (on a curved surface) in the nineteenth century, and they were not even approximately gods.

• In the end, the only events of my life worth telling are those when the imperishable world erupted into this transitory one All other memories of travels, people and my surroundings have paled beside these interior happenings But my encounters with the 'other' reality, my bouts with the unconscious, are indelibly engraved on my memory. In that realm there has always been wealth in abundance, and everything else has lost importance by comparison.
