Books written out of fire give me a great deal of pleasure. You get the sense that the world for these writers could not have continued if the book hadn't been written. When you come across a book like that it is a privilege.

I am every age I've ever been.
I have lost the consolation of faith / though not the ambition to worship.

I used to think that going to the jungle made my life an adventure. However, after years of unusual work in exotic places, I realize that it is not how far off I go, or how deep into the forest I walk that gives my life meaning. I see that living life fully is what makes life – anyone’s life, no matter where they do or do not go – an adventure.
It is only by following your deepest instinct that you can lead a rich life, and if you let your fear of consequence prevent you from following your deepest instinct, then your life will be safe, expedient and thin.

I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint - and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.

Experience shows that success is due less to ability than to zeal. The winner is he who gives himself to his work body and soul.
An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is only an adventure wrongly considered.

Come, Whoever you are! Wanderer, worshipper, lover of leaving, Come. Ours is not a caravan of despair. It doesn’t matter if you’ve broken your vow a thousand times, Still come. And yet again, come!
If you want to build a ship, don’t drum up the people to gather
wood, divide the work, and give orders. Instead, teach them to yearn of the
vast and endless sea.
If
you have a passion, then you have something to contribute.
Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.
Enthusiasm
with error is more acceptable than indifference with perfection.
Life, when fully lived under a variety of cultural conditions, can be euphoric and optimistic; it can be a joy to experience and a wonder to behold.
Earnestness is enthusiasm tempered by reason.

I believe in humanity. We are an incredible species. We're still just a child creature, we're still being nasty to each other. And all children go through those phases. We're growing up, we're moving into adolescence now. When we grow up - man, we're going to be something!

Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars. Enthusiasm is the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait. The grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to execute your ideas.

Your enthusiasm will be infectious, stimulating and attractive to others. They will love you for it. They will go for you and with you.
