The greatest truth to realize is there are no truths.

[cetus]

There is something happening here that is not happening.

If you try to look for it with your eyes, you can't see it.

If you listen for it with your ears, you can't hear it.

If you try to understand it with your mind, it will never make sense.

But it's always right here.

What happens when pinocchio says "my nose will grow" ? 

Nothing.

If Pinocchio said "my nose is growing" then that would be a paradox, because if it did grow then it would stop because it was true, but if it didn't grow then it would grow because it was a lie, and so on.

But by saying it will grow points to a future reference. So it does not have to grow at the moment to make the statement a paradox. IMHO.

All these quotes makes perfect sense along the path though, you don't even need to be enlightened to fully understand most of them.
