Hi Minx, and welcome to Book Talk. I see we have somewhat similar interest in books. BTW, your quote fascinated me. What is the source??
Love what you do, and do what you love. Don't listen to anyone else who tells you not to do it. -Ray Bradbury

Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. -Robert A. Heinlein

It's from The Book Of Secrets by Osho I do believe. I have a website saved that is dedicated to Osho though not sure. I own the Book of Secrets but I haven't finished it yet. It's huge! And thanks btw :)

Hi, I'm new here too. Seems like a great group. Sounds like we read some of the same things.
