Life will never be perfect, no matter how hard you try. Even if you pour your heart and soul into it, you will never have that perfection you seek.

The books I have read were composed by generations of fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, teachers and disciples. I am the sum total of their experiences, their quests. And so are you.
