Paulo Coelho Quote

I'm alive, he said to the boy, as they ate a bunch of dates one night, with no fires andno moon. When I'm eating, that's all I think about. If I'm on the march, I justconcentrate on marching. If I have to fight, it will be just as good a day to die as anyother.Because I don't live in either my past or my future. I'm interested only in the present.If you can concentrate always on the present, you'll be a happy man. You'll see thatthere is life in the desert, that there are stars in the heavens, and that tribesmen fightbecause they are part of the human race. Life will be a party for you, a grand festival,because life is the moment we're living right now.
