“There’s no end to the lust for pleasure until you recognize what they call impermanence; the changing nature of everything. When you do recognize that, pleasure actually can be more intense because you are not expecting it to last forever. You are not approaching it with grasping and clinging and neediness. You approach it with joy.” – Krishna Das
