Sacrificing youth for old age

 “Most of us live like monks…rooting ourselves to a home or a career and using the future as a kind of phony ritual that justifies the present. In this way, we end spending (as Thoreau put it) “the best part of one’s life earning money in order to enjoy a questionable liberty during the least valuable part of it.”


—Rolf Potts
