Pay attention, grasshopper. This is important.

Hardcore Zen: FUCK AUTHORITY and THE REVENGE OF THE DINOSAURS:
"A lot of people into the whole Zen thing don't want to take it all the way. They're in love with the idea of becoming one with the Universe, as long as they can exclude the people and things they don't like. But you can't do that. No exclusions allowed. No substitutions. If you want to be one with everything, you need to be prepared for what that really means. I don't think most of us are.

When you find yourself faced with unpleasant authority, you need to question it. That's for sure. But question that authority all the way. This means you must also question your reaction to authority. Question why you chafe against it. That is just as important."
