"To allow oneself to be carried away by a multitude of conflicting concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to commit oneself to too many projects, to want to help everyone in everything, is to succumb to the violence of our times."
–– Thomas Merton (1915-1968), American Trappist monk, writer, scholar, and social activist
via Sketchbook #26, p. 44
