Up until then, whenever anyone had mentioned the possibility of making a film adaptation, my answer had always been, โNo, Iโm not interested.โ I believe that each reader creates his own film inside his head, gives faces to the characters, constructs every scene, hears the voices, smells the smells. And that is why, whenever a reader goes to see a film based on a novel that he likes, he leaves feeling disappointed, saying: โthe book is so much better than the film.
Paulo CoelhoI don't see any reason why I should look for someone who never took the trouble to love me.
Paulo CoelhoDon't let anyone make you feel that you don't deserve the good things that happen in your life
Paulo CoelhoDreaming is very pleasant as long as you are not forced to put your dreams into practice. That way, we avoid all the risks, frustrations and difficulties, and when we are old, we can always blame other people - preferably our parents, our spouses or our children - for our failure to realise our dreams.
