Nando Parrado Quotes

Love is our only weapon. Only love can turn mere life into a miracle, and draw precious meaning from suffering and fear.

I think life is simpler than we tend to think. We look for answers and more answers. But there are no answers. Things happen in life, good things and bad. People say, 'Why did it happen to me?' Well, why not? Some people win the lottery, and others die in a car crash. It happens, and there is nothing we can do about it. The universe doesn't care what happens to you.

Death has an opposite, but the opposite is not mere living. It is not courage or faith or human will. The opposite of death is love. How had I missed that? How does anyone miss that? Love is our only weapon. Only love can turn mere life into a miracle, and draw precious meaning from suffering and fear

I would walk until I had walked all the life out of me, and when I fell, I would die that much closer to home.

We all have our own personal Andes.

Savour your existence. Live every moment. Do not waste a breath.
