“We fell silent again. The thing we had shared was nothing more than a fragment of time that had died long ago. Even so, a faint glimmer of that warm memory still claimed a part of my heart. And when death claimed me, no doubt I would walk along by that faint light in the brief instant before being flung once again into the abyss of nothingness.” ~ Haruki Murakami
I just read this by Viviennne Westwood and couldn't agree more!: “Buy less. Choose well. Make it last. Quality, not quantity,” she said. “Everybody’s buying far too many clothes.”
Not the same mushrooms, but a great quote nontheless: “I'm glad mushrooms are against the law, because I took them one time, and you know what happened to me? I laid in a field of green grass for four hours going, "My God! I love everything." Yeah, now if that isn't a hazard to our country … how are we gonna justify arms dealing when we realize that we're all one?”
