+1 to Autobiography of a Yogi. Made lasting impact on my life. This book has a lot of magnetism to it, some agree and some disagree but here are some of my favorite quotes in the book:

"Wisdom is the greatest cleanser."

"Continual intellectual study results in vanity and the false satisfaction of an undigested knowledge"

"In shallow men the fish of little thoughts cause much commotion. In oceanic minds the whales of inspiration make hardly a ruffle."

Other notable books that had an impact on the way I think are:

On The Shortness of Life - Lucius Seneca

Steve Jobs Biography - This was way back before I moved to states and gave me an intro to states as well as S.V
