1951? Feels like written for today's world

I loved this book I picked up on the used shelf of my local bookstore. A quick easy read, but full of wisdom indeed.
Fits very well with Pema Chodron’s books as well.

It is obvious that the only interesting people are interested people, and to be completely interested is to have forgotten about “I”.

Alan Watts said
We are seeing, then, that our experience is altogether momentary.
From one point of view, each moment is so
elusive and so brief that we cannot even
think about it before it has gone. From
another point of view, this moment is always
here, since we know no other moment than the
present moment. It is always dying, always
becoming past more rapidly than imagination
can conceive. Yet at the same time it is
always being born, always new, emerging just
as rapidly from that complete unknown we
call the future. Thinking about it almost
makes you breathless.
