Frederick Lenz

Frederick Lenz
As long as it's a world, it has laws. Why, I don't know, it's just the way it is. In Nirvana, there are no laws.
Frederick Lenz
I can go shopping and pick up some Bounty Towels, the three pack, I can go home and open those up and look at them and see more infinity than in the Buddha's best meditation. If I can't do that, that means I'm wrapped by the Buddha's best meditation.
Frederick Lenz
The dream appears to be real. It does really seem we are here in this world but this is not so.
Frederick Lenz
