The best measure of a man's honesty isn't his income tax return. It's the zero adjust on his bathroom scale.

The best measure of a man's honesty isn't his income tax return. It's the zero adjust on his bathroom scale.
Bliss - a-second-by-second joy and gratitude at the gift of being alive, conscious - lies on the other side of crushing, crushing boredom. Pay close attention to the most tedious thing you can find (Tax Returns, Televised Golf) and, in waves, a boredom like you’ve never known will wash over you and just about kill you. Ride these out, and it’s like stepping from black and white into color. Like water after days in the desert. Instant bliss in every atom.
