Radicalism, Understanding and Silence
From a Burmese Monk Who Spent Most of His Time in the Woods

"When your thoughts become radical and you do not want to be misunderstood, you become silent, or you will say things that you are not really interested in saying. You say things that get near to what you want to say but you say it in such a way that people don't understand what you're saying. Sometimes you are happy that they don't understand what you are saying. Why do you want to express your thoughts? That is another attachment. If you let go of that attachment there will be silence and peace."
--Sayadaw U Jotika, from "Snow in the Summer," his collected letters.

If only I could remember this.
