When we meet someone and fall in love, we have a sense that the whole universe is on our side. And yet if something goes wrong, there is nothing left! How is it possible for the beauty that was there only minutes before to vanish so quickly? Life moves very fast. It rushes from heaven to hell in a matter of seconds.
Paulo CoelhoEach human being has the right to seek out joy, joy being understood as something which makes one content - not necessarily that which makes others content.
Paulo CoelhoThere is a language that is beyond words. If I can learn to decipher that language without words, I will be able to decipher the world.
Paulo CoelhoAnyone who is in love is making love the whole time, even when they're not. When two bodies meet, it is just the cup overflowing. They can stay together for hours, even days. They begin the dance one day and finish it the next, or - such is the pleasure they experience - they may never finish it. No eleven minutes for them.
