Ring in the Old

There is nothing new at all. It is the old that tells us that it is new, and through this gimmick thought is making what it calls "new" part of the old, and it thus maintaining its continuity. So, whatever you cannot experience does not exist. It may sound as a very dogmatic assertion on my part, but when you try to experience something that you have not experienced before, the whole movement of the experiencing structure comes to an end.

-- U.G. Krishnamurti, from Thought is Your Enemy
