All blame is a waste of time. No matter how much fault you find with another, and regardless of how much you blame him, it will not change you.

To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering one must not love. But then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer.
