a conversation
World famous photographer Josef Koudelka was once asked:
the friend: "...you've travelled or so many years, never stopped; you've seen lots of people and countries, all sorts of places. Tell me which place is the best. Where would you like to stay?"
Koudelka didn't say anything. Just as he was about to leave, the friend asked again. Koudelka didn't want to answer, but the friend kept on insisting.
Finally the friend said,

koudelka: "My friend, you've got it all wrong. I'm not desperately trying not to find that place."
