Paulo Coelho

A few lines from an interesting book. I can relate to the verses but not necessarily in the context that they were meant for.

The desert is a capricious lady, and sometimes she drives men crazy.

He also said that this was not just a human gift, that everything on
the face of the earth has a soul, whether mineral, vegetable,
or animal -- or even just a simple thought.

Because people become fascinated with pictures and words, and
wind up forgetting the Language of the World.

So true. Check it out. The Alchemist.
