Paulo Coelho
"I've met a man and fallen in love with him. I allowed myself to fall in love for one simple reason: I'm not expecting anything to come of it. I know that, in three months' time, I'll be far away and he'll be just a memory, but I couldn't stand living without love any longer; I had reached my limit. Generally speaking, these meetings occur when we reach a limit, when we need to die and be reborn emotionally. These meeting are waiting for us, but more often than not, we avoid them happening. If we are desperate, though, if we have nothing to lose, or if we are full of enthusiasm for life, then the unknown reveals itself, and our universe changes directions."

"Life was always a matter of waiting for the right moment to act."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"But how to explain suffering because of a man? It's not explainable. With that kind of suffering, a person feels as if they're in hell, because there is no nobility, no greatness - only misery."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"If the whole world is evil, then the tragedy that befell you is justified," she went on. "That would make it easier for you to accept the deaths of your wife and daughters. But if good people do exist, then, however much you deny it, your life will be unbearable; because fate set a trap for you, and you know you didn't deserve it. It isn't the light you want to recover, it's the certainty that there is only darkness."

Paulo Coelho
"Hatred. Something almost as physical as walls, pianos, or nurses."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"She felt vulnerable and alone and had a sense that a great opportunity was slipping through her fingers. Once again, she felt that life was not treating her as it treated other people: it gave her every chance to achieve something, and just when she was close to her objective, the ground opened up and swallowed her. That's how it had been with her studies, with certain boyfriends, with certain dreams she had never shared with anyone."

Paulo Coelho
"Every blessing ignored becomes a curse."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"When you find your path, you must not be afraid. You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes. Disappointment, defeat, and despair are the tools God uses to show us the way."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"But they both agreed that it's always nice to know that your wife is desired by another man, although they wouldn't go any further than that."
