It's this book I read in a day, because it's that good. Love story based in Peru while doing humanitarian work. Anyways, here are some quotes I fancied and hopefully you fancy them too:
"The secret of success in this life is to realize that the crisis on our planet is much larger than just deciding what to do with your own life. The only work that will ultimately bring any good to any of us is the work contributing to the healing of the world." - Marianne Williamson
"As much as I have schemed and planned to the contrary, the most central experiences of my life have all been accidents."
"Today I overheard an American teenager comparing her deprivation to that of our children, because her parents would only buy her a used car. There are none so impoverished as those who do not acknowledge the abundance of their lives."
"The surest way to minimize your own burdens is to carry someone else's."
"There are times, it seems, that God throws a cosmic switch that moves the tracks beneath us, hurling our lives headlong in a new and uncertain direction. Of these times just two things are certain: It's best we don't know what's ahead. We can never go back."
