For Me The World Is Weird Because It Is Stupendous, Awesome, Mysterious, Unfathomable; My Interest Has Been To Convince You That You Must Assume Responsibility For Being Here, In This Marvelous World, In This Marvelous Desert, In This Marvelous Time.

"only If One Loves This Earth With Unbending Passion Can One Relieve One's Sadness," Don Juan Said. "warriors Are Always Joyful Because Their Love Is Unalterable And Their Beloved, The Earth, Embraces Them And Bestows Upon Them Inconceivable Gifts. The Sadness Belongs Only To Those Who Hate The Very Thing That Gives Shelter To Their Beings." Don Juan Again Caressed The Ground With Tenderness. "this Lovely Being, Which Is Alive To Its Last Recesses And Understands Every Feeling, Soothed Me, It Cured Me Of My Pains, And Finally When I Had Fully Understood My Love For It, It Taught Me Freedom."
