"Choice of attention - to pay attention to thisand ignore that - is to the inner life what choice
of action is to the outer. In both cases, a man is
responsible for his choice and must accept the
consequences, whatever they may be."

Thought for the Day
Here's something to think about, offered by the English poet W.H. Auden (1907-1973):
"Choice of attention - to pay attention to this
and ignore that - is to the inner life what choice
of action is to the outer. In both cases, a man is
responsible for his choice and must accept the
consequences, whatever they may be."
"Choice of attention - to pay attention to thisand ignore that - is to the inner life what choice
of action is to the outer. In both cases, a man is
responsible for his choice and must accept the
consequences, whatever they may be."
