Her heart had already been broken many times over, and yet she still believed she was destined to meet the man of her life.
Paulo CoelhoWe could go back to the time when we first met: a man in emotional tatters over someone who had left him, and a woman madly in love with her neighbor. I could repeat what I said to you once: 'I'm going to fight to the bitter end.' Well, I fought and I lost, and now I'll just have to lick my wounds and leave.
Paulo CoelhoIf you say it was the "last" time, it might well turn out to be the last. What you meant was "the most recent time I was here".
Paulo CoelhoKnow how to get close to it: mountains are often seen from far off - beautiful, interesting, full of challenges. But what happens when we try to draw closer? Roads run all around them, flowers grow between you and your objective, what seemed so clear on the map is tough in real life. So try all the paths and all the tracks until eventually one day you're standing in front of the top that you yearn to reach.
