Short Quotes

[T]he crown of thorns that you wear ... represents your attempt at fulfillment in the world. [1]

Great effort is exerted in building things that can fall apart in a moment, things that have no stability or permanence. [2]

Some people can walk away from a relationship, but they are so bound to their ideas, their beliefs or their assumptions that they are not free to leave them. This is what it means to wear a crown of thorns. This is when the mind is a crown of thorns. You wear it, but it torments you. It seems to give you a kingly title, but in fact it is a harness of misery. It seems to elevate you and give you stature in the world, but in fact it cuts you and hurts you, binds you and mocks you. [3]
