Bertrand Russell, fully Bertrand Arthur William Russell, 3rd Earl Russell

The contention that time is unreal and that the world of sense is illusory must, I think, be regarded as based upon fallacious reasoning... Both in thought and in feeling, to realize the unimportance of time is the gate of wisdom.

John C. Maxwell

You cannot overestimate the unimportance of practically everything.

Moshé Feldenkreis, fully Moshé Pinchas Feldenkrais

Recognizing our insignificance, the unimportance of what we think, do, or cannot do, we find ourselves in full mastery of ourselves to the potential limit of our ability. That sort of unstable equilibrium that is abandoned in each action and recovered for the next is the essence of human maturity.

R. H. Blyth, fully Reginald Horace Blyth
