Eustace Conway - From the Architecture category:
The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert...
I don't live inside buildings because buildings are dead places where nothing grows, where water doesn't flow, and where life stops. I don't want to live in a dead place. People say that I don't live in a real world, but it's modern Americans who live in a fake world, because they have stepped outside the natural circle of life. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Awareness category:
The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert...
Try to notice something new every day... Pay attention to even the most modest of daily details... be aware at all times. Notice what food tastes like; notice what the detergent aisle in the supermarket smells like and recognize what those hard chemical smells do to your senses; notice what bare feet feel like; pay attention every day to the vital insights that mindfulness can bring. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Culture category:
In studying other cultures, we learn more about ourselves and our relationship to all things in this world. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Eccentricity category:
The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert...
The course of water over the earth is circular coming down from the sky and circulating through the world to spread life and then evaporating up again. I live in a circular teepee and build my fire in a circle. The life cycles of plants and animals are circular. I live outside where I can see this. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Health category:
The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert...
And take care of all things, of every single thing there is - your body, your intellect, your spirit, your neighbors, and this planet. Don't pollute your soul with apathy or spoil your health with junk food any more than you would deliberately contaminate a clean river with industrial sludge. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Life category:
The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert...
Show up for your own life... Don't pass your days in a stupor... The most extraordinary gift you've been given is your own humanity, which is about consciousness, so honor that consciousness. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Materials category:
Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Nature category:
The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert...
I live in nature where everything is connected, circular. The seasons are circular. The planet is circular, and so is the planet around the sun... The ancient people understood that our world is a circle... Do people live in circles today? No. They live in boxes. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Possessions category:
The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert...
Man, you guys have a lot of material possessions. Just imagine if you took all the money you've spent on these things and traveled around the world with it, instead, or bought books and read them. (Eustace Conway)
Eustace Conway - From the Senses category:
The Last American Man by Elizabeth Gilbert...
Revere your senses; don't degrade them with drugs, with depression, with willful oblivion. (Eustace Conway)
