Paulo CoelhoNow go back and meet all those people who you think know everything. Convince yourself that they're right, because we all know everything, it's merely a question of believing.
Paulo CoelhoBlessed are those who do not fear solitude, who are not afraid of their own company, who are not always desperately looking for something to do, something to amuse themselves with, something to judge.

Paulo CoelhoAfter weeks on the road, listening to a language you donโt understand, using a currency whose value you donโt comprehend, walking down streets youโve never walked down before, you discover that your old โI,โ along with everything you ever learned, is absolutely no use at all in the face of those new challenges, and you begin to realize that buried deep in your unconscious mind there is someone much more interesting and adventurous and more open to the world and to new experiences.
