"Let our minds become pilaff."

"Well?" Zorba said mockingly. "Don't worry, boss, you can't argue that out. Let's talk of something else. Just now I'm thinking of the chicken and the pilaff. Let's eat first, ballast up first, then we'll see. Everything in good time. In front of us now is the pilaff; let out minds become pilaff. Tomorrow the lignite will be in front of us; our minds must become lignite! No half-measures, you know."
-Zorba (Kazantzakis)
