Tuesdays With Morrie

Yet another book, that says nothing new, but kicks you in the butt, just in case you forgot how to lead your life. This one, like the Last Lecture, has nothing new to offer. It is the same inspirational kind. But you need one such book every year to realize that a mechanical life does not lead you anywhere, and that there is a huge difference between "want" and "need".

Good quotes:

Love each other or perish.

People are only mean when they're threatened.

When you learn how to die, you learn how to live.

Death ends a life, not a relationship.

Once you know how to die, you know how to live.

You're not a wave, you're part of the ocean.

If you can accept that you can die at any time - then you might not be as ambitious as you are.
