""The thing that comes to my house does not come every night. But it comes most nights: we know it by the wounds on the cat, and the pain I can see in those leonine eyes. He has lost the use of his front left paw, and his right eye has closed for good" (pg 55)." — Nov 17, 2013 08:17PM

"This book is a yoga treasure! Beautiful and easy to read, with a nearly perfect amount of detail about physiology, anatomy, yoga and philosophy, history, anecdotes, energy in its myriad forms, breath and prana and chi. Totally awesome read. And I've begun to put to the yoga mat some of the yin yoga asanas and the effect is profound and energizing." — Oct 05, 2017 07:28AM

"Very shortly after opening this book a fushigi (aka small synchronicity) happened. The book begins with a quotation from Whitman's Leaves of Grass . Last night, after spontaneously wanting to re-watch a crazy cancelled TV series called 'Wonderfalls', I opened one of my boxes of books I'd not opened since I packed it in Aug 2017, and found Leaves of Grass." — Jan 30, 2019 09:29AM
