“I lived in solitude in the country and noticed how the monotony of quiet life stimulates the creative mind.” – Albert Einstein, physicist
I wonder what “the monotony of quiet life” would be like to experience? I’ve done a few retreats in my life, but they’ve only been a couple of days. I wonder if I could take it for a month. I’d love to try a week, then two weeks. But I can’t see a way that I’ll be able to do this anytime soon. But if I really wanted to, I bet I could figure out how.
