The Sahara Desert Transformed Me Forever
“Sweet desert rose
– Sting
Each of her veils, a secret promise
This desert flower
No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this”

“Your will is free means: it was free when it wanted the desert, it is free since it can choose the path that leads to crossing the desert, it is free since it can choose the pace, but it is also unfree since you must go through the desert, unfree since every path in labyrinthine manner touches every foot of the desert’s surface.”
– Franz Kafka, Blue Octavo Notebooks
