"Very challenging book,I'm discovering new areas in my thougt system.As long as I read I can feel a reorganization of reality,my reality,my perceptions,my definitions..
The analysis is impressive,very detailed.
It is based on the Bible-that I've never read-I can understand the purpose of the book,though.
The book is universal because the topic is universal regardless its reference,however it's not for everyone." — Jun 28, 2017 03:13AM

“When you shit, as you first sit down, you’re not fully in the experience yet. You are not yet a shitting person. You’re transitioning from a person about to shit to a person who is shitting. You don’t whip out your smartphone or a newspaper right away. It takes a minute to get the first shit out of the way and get in the zone and get comfortable. Once you reach that moment, that’s when it gets really nice. It’s a powerful experience, shitting. There’s something magical about it, profound even. I think God made humans shit in the way we do because it brings us back down to earth and gives us humility. I don’t care who you are, we all shit the same. Beyoncé shits. The pope shits. The Queen of England shits. When we shit we forget our airs and our graces, we forget how famous or how rich we are. All of that goes away. You”
