"The very beautiful rarely love at all; those precious images are placed above the reach of the passions: Time alone is permitted to efface them."

Since the real purpose of meditation is to increase our capacity to help others, taking time each day to meditate is not selfish. We have to manage our time and energy in such a way that we can be of maximum benefit to others, and to do this we need time alone to recover our strength, collect our thoughts, and see things in perspective
