The
most important point is — and remains — not to take oneself seriously. There is
no past, and, certainly, no future. There are but a few years — ten at the
most. You pass your days as best you can, doing as little harm as possible. Let
the desires be few and treat expectations as weeds. You read, scribble as the
spirit moves you, hear some new music, see every week the few people you are
attached to. Again: guard yourself, above all, against self-dramatization, a
feeling of importance, and the sprouting of expectations. Eric Hoffer
