Award Winning author, Paulo Coelho's response to a kid selling pirated copies of his book at a traffic signal in Delhi. Can our Nollywood producers learn from this and stop screaming, PIRACY? grin

It is an honest way for the young vendor to make money, but not for the pirate. Who ever pirated those books still deserve to go to jail when caught.

A Nollywood producer, would have ordered the arrest of even the seller

This is the height of selflessness and altruism and a real lesson about What is important in life.Not always about the money.

I did shed a tear.

When humanity matters to you, profit is the last thing on your mind.

All he cares about is that the message of his book gets to everyone, no matter the means; cares more about humanity than profit as Sylverbox has said; and respects the hustle of that hustler...

By the way, his book is still one of the very best I've read..

A man reached a hotel where he was invited for a wedding .
He found two doors, one written brides close relatives n friends; the other written grooms close relatives n friends.
He entered the grooms n found inside two other doors
One written for ladies only and the other gents only.
He entered the gents only and walked a few steps just to find 2doors
One written, those with gifts the other those without gifts.
Since he was among those who didn't carry anything; he entered,
ONLY TO FIND HIMSELF OUT ON THE STREET. grin grin grin
