"Lonely places, then, are the places that are not on international wavelengths, do not know how to carry themselves, are lost when it comes to visitors. They are shy, defensive, curious places; places that do not know how they are supposed to behave." - Pico Iyer, Falling Off the Map #picoiyerforever
"'When you're hurrying around too quickly,' he had said, 'there's a part of the world you can't see. If, for example, you're taking a wrong direction in your life, it's only when you stop and look at things clearly that you can revise your direction and take a more proper course. The message of Zen is that in order to find ourselves, we've got to learn to stop.'" - Pico Iyer, The Lady and the Monk #oldonyolodge #Kenya #relaischateauxafrica #relaischateaux

"Don't use the phone. People are never ready to answer it. Use poetry."
