Someone once asked the Dalai Lama what surprised him most about humanity and he answered…

“Man. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money. Then he sacrifices his money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he doesn’t enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future, he lives as if he is never going to die, and dies having never really lived.”
