"Q: Is conscious action the same as peaceful action?
A: Yes, because it is undivided. Mechanical action is divided against
itself. Take motives. A man has two motives - the noble one he publicly
claims to have and the hidden motive of adding to his vanity or to his bank
account. So mechanicalness causes self-division, and self-division causes
conflict."
