Jiddu Krishnamurti
The Krishnamurti quote given above is given in Scattered, Gabor Maté's excellent book about the origins and treatment of Attention Deficit Disorder, that peculiar disease of minds living under the American Empire.
Krishnamurti said a lot of nice things in his time: a lot of profound things about healing and wholeness and autonomy and freedom from distress. He was also a nasty little piece of work.
Ho hum. We're none of us perfect.
Ho hum. We're none of us perfect.
