Not from this book ... :)))

“ I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound or stab us. If the book we’re reading doesn’t wake us up with a blow to the head, what are we reading for? So that it will make us happy?… Good Lord, we would be happy precisely if we had no books…“
-Kafka

“breath control is central to yoga: the term hatha means “union of the sun (Ha)and the moon (Tha)”

“strength and flexibility in postures are not by themselves a sign of progress. A smooth, rhythmical, balanced breath is.”

“Asanas make one firm, free of disease, and light of limb.”
