One of my favorite novels made into a movie with Anthony Quinn as Zorba in Zorba the Greek.

"What?s the use of all your damn books if they can?t answer that?
They tell me about the agony of men who can?t answer questions like yours?
I spit on this agony!

"A man needs a little madness?or else?he never dares cut the rope and be free."

"You think too much, that is your trouble. Clever people and grocers, they weigh everything."
