"It seems to me that to organize on the basis of feeding people or righting social injustice and all that is very valuable. But to rally people around the idea of modernism, modernity, or something is simply silly. I mean, I don't know what kind of a cause that is, to be up to date. I think it ultimately leads to fashion and snobbery and I'm against it."

WeCroak is a smartphone app based on the Bhutanese principle that to live a happy life, one must meditate on one's own death five times a day. Only five times a day?
First meditate on this question: "My death; is it possible?"
Then meditate on the fact that, at your funeral, you won't be there. You won't see who comes, you won't know what's said, you won't know what's done. But it will be your funeral.
When you can imagine that, you'll be getting somewhere.

I told them they could have bagpipes or sing Amazing Grace but only if they're really sure I'm dead.
