The Way of the Bow

by Paulo Coelho

You will learn from the farmer to have patience, to work hard, to respect the seasons and not to curse the storms, because it would be a waste of time.

Join with those who sing, tell stories, take pleasure in life, and have joy in their eyes, because joy is contagious and can prevent others from becoming paralysed by depression, loneliness and difficulties.

Elegance is not the most comfortable of postures, but it is the best posture if the shot is to be perfect.

On a day when you are out of love with life, your aim will be confused, difficult.

Use your bad moments to discover what makes you tremble. Use your good moments to find your road to inner peace.
