Quote by Paulo Coelho
He knew that any given thing on the face of the earth could reveal the history of all things. One could open a book to any page, or look at a person's hand; one could turn a card, or watch the flight of birds... whatever the thing observed, one could find a connection with his experience of the moment. Actually, it wasn't that those things, in themselves, revaled anything at all; it was just that people, looking at what was ocurring around them, could find a means of penetration to the Soul of the World.
Summary
This quote highlights the belief that everything in the world carries significance and can offer insights into the interconnectedness of life. Whether it is a book, a person's hand, a card, or the flight of birds, each observation can serve as a gateway to understanding and connecting with one's present experience. It emphasizes that these objects or events themselves may not hold inherent meaning, but rather it is through the act of observation and reflection that individuals can tap into the essence or soul of the world around them.
