“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

Make haste in doing good; check your mind from evil; for the mind of him who is slow in doing meritorious actions delights in evil.

- Rumi
