Don't be afraid of discontent, but give it nourishment until the spark becomes a flame and you are everlastingly discontented with everything – with your job, with your family, with the traditional pursuit of money, position, power – so that you really begin to think, to discover. But as you grow older, you will find that to maintain this spirit of discontent is very difficult. You have children to provide for and the demands of your job to consider; the opinion of your neighbours, of society closes in upon you, and soon you begin to lose this burning flame of discontent.

Discontent is a flame that must be kept burning brightly, and not smothered by an interest or activity that is pursued as a reaction to the pain of it. Discontent is painful only when it is resisted. One who is merely satisfied, without understanding the full significance of discontent, is asleep; they are not sensitive to the whole movement of life. Satisfaction is a drug, and it is comparatively easy to find. But to understand the full significance of discontent, the search for certainty must cease.

This is the Minnesota murderer.

This is the back end of the car that he escaped in.

Perles rouges sur le sable
OΓΉ les enfants couraient jadis
Traces de pas, faible indice
Des jeux et rires, mΓ©moire friable

Le vent a soufflΓ© sur les joies
DΓ©pouillΓ© les os secs et blancs
Des marmots qui tiraient Γ  blanc
Sous les fenΓͺtres des bourgeois

PΓ©trole et bombes, de concert
Le napalm au petit matin
MΓͺlΓ© au cafΓ© du crΓ©tin
Dictateur Γ©lu que l'on sert

It is discontent that drives, that creates, that urges us on. If we can understand discontent without smothering it by the search for certainty and psychological security, if we can keep that discontent and its flame alive, our problem is simple, because that very discontent is creative, and from that we can move on. But the moment we smother discontent, put it away, resist it, hide it, the mind is concerned merely with the reconciliation of effects, and discontent is no longer a means of going forward and plunging into something unknown.

I think I can escape from my discontent by having something more, more clothes or more power and so on. But the dissatisfaction is still there, only I cover it up with clothes, with power, with cars. I just cover it up. Until you find out how to understand what you are, merely covering yourself with words, with power, with position, has no meaning. You will still be unhappy.
