I try to write each piece in the language of the piece, so that I'm not using the same language from piece to piece. I may be using ten or twenty languages.

As such, they are acted on by our laws, and have an interest in our laws. They may be considered as making a part, though a degraded part, of the families to which they belong.
Every living being longs always to be happy, untainted by sorrow; and everyone has the greatest love for himself, which is solely due to the fact that happiness is his real nature. Hence, in order to realize that inherent and untainted happiness, which indeed he daily experiences when the mind is subdued in deep sleep, it is essential that he should know himself. For obtaining such knowledge the inquiry 'Who am I?' in quest of the Self is the best means.

One should never direct people towards happiness, because happiness too is an idol of the market-place. One should direct them towards mutual affection.
