“All paths are the same: they lead nowhere. . . . They are paths going through
the bush, or into the bush. In my own life I could say I have traversed long,
long paths but I am not anywhere. My benefactor’s question has meaning now.
Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn’t it is of
no use. Both paths lead nowhere; but one has a heart, the other doesn’t. One
makes for a joyful journey; as long as you follow it, you are one with it. The
other will make you curse your life. One makes you strong; the other weakens you.”
