"Be the last. Walk around the world as if you are not. Do not be competent, do not try to prove your significance - this is not necessary. Stay useless and enjoy. You rate people by their usefulness. I'm not saying you shouldn't do anything useful. Do useful things, but remember that the real and greatest experience of life and ecstasy come from doing the useless. It comes through poetry, painting, love, meditation. The greatest joy will fill you only if you are capable of doing something that cannot be reduced to a commodity. The reward is spiritual, internal, it is manifested by energy. So, if you feel useless - don't worry. You can become a huge tree with a large crown. And people who have entered into useful activity... they need to rest in the shadows sometimes. "
