Life of Pi

by Yann Martel

“Bapu Gandhi said, ‘All religions are true.’ I just want to love God,”

This happened time and again. How true it is that necessity is the mother of invention, how very true.

I must say a word about fear. It is life’s only true opponent. Only fear can defeat life.

It’s important in life to conclude things properly. Only then can you let go. Otherwise you are left with words you should have said but never did, and your heart is heavy with remorse.

Love is hard to believe, ask any lover. Life is hard to believe, ask any scientist. God is hard to believe, ask any believer. What is your problem with hard to believe?”
