"The key to your happiness is to own your slippers, own who you are, own how you look, own your family, own the talents you have, and own the ones you don’t. If you keep saying your slippers aren’t yours, then you’ll die searching, you’ll die bitter, always feeling you were promised more. Not only our actions, but also our omissions, become our destiny."

- The all-time most highlighted passage by Amazon Kindle readers, as quoted by Abraham Verghese in his book, Cutting for Stone (via brit)
