“In the end, we need two things to lead a balanced life - a sense of the world and a sense of ourselves; it's like breathing in and breathing out.

One without the other leads to a kind of madness.” IfsKnowsWorldNeedsKindTwoEndsSelfMotivationalFindingsLosingMadnessBreathingContemplationTwo ThingsFinding YourselfBalancedLosing YourselfBalanced LifeStepping Back Author:Pico Iyer
