Back in 1964, when I spent a year living in Berkeley, California, I attended some meetings of a group studying the works of Ouspensky and Gurdjieff. One quote from Gurdjieff's "Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson" that stuck in my mind was: "If you go on a spree, then go the whole hog, including the postage." The idea is that if you are going to do something, don't scrimp and offer short-services, but go all the way… including paying for the postage. |
