Becoming Habit Concentration

More From Toni Morrison

There is not a hint of one person who was afraid to draw near him [jesus]. there were those who mocked him. there were those who were envious of him. there were those who misunderstood him. there were those who revered him. but there was not one person who considered him too holy, too divine, or too celestial to touch. there was not one person who was reluctant to approach him for fear of being rejected.

The concentration of wealth is a natural result of this concentration of ability, and regularly recurs in history. the rate of concentration varies (other factors being equal) with the economic freedom permitted by morals and laws.

We must believe that "emotion recollected in tranquillity" is an inexact formula. for it is neither emotion, nor recollection, nor without distortion of meaning, tranquillity. it is a concentration, and a new thing resulting from the concentration of a very great number of experiences which to the practical and active person would not seem to be experiences at all; it is a concentration which does not happen consciously or of deliberation. these experiences are not "recollected" and they finally unite in an atmosphere which is "tranquil" only in that it is a passive attending upon the event.

The joy of life is born of concentration. when you are having a cup of tea, the value of that experience depends on your concentration. you have to drink the tea with 100 percent of your concentration.

I think that i shall never see a poem lovely as a tree. a tree whose hungry mouth is pressed against the earth's sweet flowing breast; a tree that looks at god all day and lifts her leafy arms to pray; a tree that may in summer wear a nest of robins in her hair; upon whose bosom snow has lain; who intimately lives with rain. poems are made by fools like me, but only god can make a tree.
Summer Sweet Nature
Don't be ashamed to weep; 'tis right to grieve. tears are only water, and flowers, trees, and fruit cannot grow without water. but there must be sunlight also. a wounded heart will heal in time, and when it does, the memory and love of our lost ones is sealed inside to comfort us.

When we reflect upon the cruelties daily practised upon such of the animal creation as are given us for food, or which we ensnarefor our diversion, we shall be obliged to own that there is more of the savage in human nature than we are aware of.
