O ovoj e-knjizi
' I believe that the journey is more important than the destination. But, then, I have never really had a destination. The glory that comes from conquering the Himalayan peaks is not for me. My greatest pleasure lies in taking a path— any old path will do— and following it until it leads me to a forest glade or village or stream or windy hilltop.'
