One never reaches home, but wherever friendly paths intersect the whole world looks like home for a time.
Hermann HesseLife is waiting everywhere, the future is flowering everywhere, but we only see a small part of it and step on much of it with our feet
Hermann HesseOpinions mean nothing; they may be beautiful or ugly, clever or foolish, anyone can embrace or reject them.
Hermann HesseWhat we can and should change is ourselves: our impatience, our egoism (including intellectual egoism), our sense of injury, our lack of love and forbearance. I regard every other attempt to change the world, even if it springs from the best intentions, as futile.
