“By contemplating the impermanence of everything in the world, we are forced to recognize that every time we do something could be the last time we do it, and this recognition can invest the things we do with a significance and intensity that would otherwise be absent.

But some are round and hard--and the most powerful leaders in the world can trip over them. So can writers, dissidents and saints.”
