“Hmm…” said the old man, looking at all sides of the book, as if it were some strange object.
“This is an important book, but it’s really irritating.” The boy was shocked.
The old man knew how to read, and had already read the book.
And if the book was irritating, as the old man had said, the boy still had time to change it for another.

“It describes people’s inability to choose their own Personal Legends. And it ends up saying that everyone believes the world’s greatest lie.”
“What’s the world’s greatest lie?” the boy asked, completely surprised.
“It’s this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what’s happening to us,
and our lives become controlled by fate. That’s the world’s greatest lie.”

“Much better,” said the old man. “Because you really like to travel.”
“He knew what I was thinking,” the boy said to himself.
