"I can never come to quietude
if I do not sacrifice my agitation
and my tensions.
I cannot have a free attention
if I do not sacrifice what keeps it enslaved.
Everything I wish has to be paid for.
If I wish to have a new state,
I must sacrifice the old.
We never get more than we give up.
What we receive is proportional to what we sacrifice."
~Jeanne DeSaltzmann
