CURRENT MISSION

How to know more and more about the world :)

PHILOSOPHY

Quotation from "Steppenwolf" by Hermann Hesse: Die meisten Menschen wollen nicht eher schwimmen als bis sie es können.
Which means to me: everything new is worth trying, even when I'm afraid of unknown.

In the same context, I also use to remind one of Noir Desir's songs, especially the part: "Je n'ai pas peur de la route (...) Le vent nous portera."

And, due to the fact that I love riding bicycle, I use to repeat: "Life is like riding a bicycle - to keep your balance you must keep moving."
