"When someone is seeking,” said Siddhartha, “it happens quite easily that he only sees the one thing that he is seeking; that he is unable to find anything, unable to absorb anything, because he has a goal, because he is obsessed with his goal. Seeking means: to have a goal; but finding means: to be free, to be receptive, to have no goal. You, O worthy one, are perhaps indeed a seeker, for in striving towards your goal, you do not see many thing that are under your nose."

Siddhartha by Herman Hesse (via moonii)
