“That’s simple,” says the old man. “They are the prisoners of their personal history. Everyone believes that the main aim in life is to follow a plan.

And that is why they forget their dreams.”
- Paulo Coelho

them.
- Deep Trivedi

It is wise to direct your anger towards problems -- not people; to focus your energies on answers -- not excuses.
