lean back
«Bowed by the weight of centuries he leans upon his hoe and gazes on the ground, the emptiness of ages in his face, and on his back the burden of the world.»
«Prayer is not a way of making use of God; prayer is a way of offering ourselves to God in order that He should be able to make use of us. It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.»

«I think on the seventh day, God was running around, going, ?Oh, my God! What haven?t I?? Rwanda! I better create Rwanda! Sorry, haven?t quite done that? The Tower of Pisa! Oh, it?s leaning? Oh, shi? done! Toilets in French camping sites? there we go. English football hooligans? there we go, whatever that is? Mrs. Thatcher?s heart? there we go? oh, fuck that! I know, I?ll put a stone in, that?ll work! There we go??The next week, I think, people are coming back, going, ?Rwanda doesn?t work very well; infrastructure?s fucked.?»

«Television's perfect. You turn a few knobs, a few of those mechanical adjustments at which the higher apes are so proficient, and lean back and drain your mind of all thought. And there you are watching the bubbles in the primeval ooze. You don't have to concentrate. You don't have to react. You don't have to remember. You don't miss your brain because you don't need it. Your heart and liver and lungs continue to function normally. Apart from that, all is peace and quiet. You are in the man's nirvana. And if some poor nasty minded person comes along and says you look like a fly on a can of garbage, pay him no mind. He probably hasn't got the price of a television set.»
