The Zahir

here are a few words of wisdom from Coelho's The Zahir

1."Fanaticism is the only way to put an end to the doubts that constantly trouble the human soul."

2. "We humans have two great problems: the first is knowing when to begin; the second is knowing when to stop."

3. "Lukewarm things are not pleasing to the palate"

4. "What is fidelity? The feeling that I possess a body and a soul that aren’t mine?"

5. "We just don’t all have the courage to follow our dreams and to follow the signs. Perhaps that’s where the sadness comes from.”

6. Its not life that matters but the journey.
