In any activity, we have to know what to expect, how to reach our objectives and what capacity we possess for the proposed task. The only people who can say they have renounced the fruit are those who, thus equipped, feel no desire for the results of the conquest, and remain absorbed in combat. You can renounce the fruit, but this renunciation does not mean indifference toward the result.
Paulo CoelhoHow can we be so arrogant? The planet is, was, and always will be stronger than us. We can't destroy it; if we overstep the mark, the planet will simply erase us from its surface and carry on existing. Why don't they start talking about not letting the planet destroy us?
Paulo CoelhoIn order not to suffer, you had to renounce love. It was like putting out your own eyes in order not to see the bad things in life.
Paulo CoelhoDon't let anyone make you feel that you don't deserve the good things that happen in your life
Paulo Coelho
