“If I have no appetite—it is because I am already full. If I have no desire to go anywhere—it is because I have already arrived.”
― Max Strom, A Life Worth Breathing: A Yoga Master's Handbook of Strength, Grace, and Healing

Toba Beta
“The real dance is a spontaneous body movement that in harmony with the beats of the music in your heart.”
― Toba Beta, My Ancestor Was an Ancient Astronaut

Rabindranath Tagore
“The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.”
― Rabindranath Tagore

Christopher McDougall
“That was the real secret of the Tarahumara: they'd never forgotten what it felt like to love running. They remembered that running was mankind's first fine art, our original act of inspired creation. Way before we were scratching pictures on caves or beating rhythms on hollow trees, we were perfecting the art of combining our breath and mind and muscles into fluid self-propulsion over wild terrain. And when our ancestors finally did make their first cave paintings, what were the first designs? A downward slash, lightning bolts through the bottom and middle--behold, the Running Man.
Distance running was revered because it was indispensable; it was the way we survived and thrived and spread across the planet. You ran to eat and to avoid being eaten; you ran to find a mate and impress her, and with her you ran off to start a new life together. You had to love running, or you wouldn't live to love anything else. And like everyhing else we ove--everything we sentimentally call our 'passions' and 'desires' it's really an encoded ancestral necessity. We were born to run; we were born because we run. We're all Running People, as the Tarahumara have always known.”
― Christopher McDougall, Born to Run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen

Albert Camus
“You know what charm is: a way of getting the answer yes without having asked any clear question.”
― Albert Camus, The Fall
