The limits of language, mon ami, not the limits of practice.

If they could tell you, they would.

If you haven't seen it, no amount of talking will do anything but confuse you - except the admonition to sit, relax, and stop looking for something.

If you have seen it, there's really no reason to talk.

Every (good) book written about it is just another clever obstacle or admonition.

A message-less message - always the same, yet manifested in near infinite variety.

That's funny because I think Buddhists have done more talking and writing about it than any other group in the history of mankind.
