I love you like a river that begins as a solitary trickle in the mountains and gradually grows and joins other rivers until, after a certain point, it can flow around any obstacle in order to get where it wants.
Paulo CoelhoThe great blessing of life is the existence of tomorrows - and having dreams to realize.
Paulo CoelhoIf only everyone could know and live with their inner craziness. Would the world be a worse place for it? No, people would be fairer and happier.
Paulo CoelhoOnly children believe they're capable of everything. They're trusting and fearless; they believe in their own power and get exactly what they want. When children grow up, they start to realize that they're not as powerful as they thought and that they need other people in order survive. Then the child begins to love and to hope his love will be requited; and as life goes on, he develops an ever-greater need to be loved in return, even if that means having to give up his power. We all end up where we are now: Grown-ups doing everything we can to be accepted and loved.
