“However happy people say they are, nobody is satisfied: we always have...” — Paulo Coelho Quote

“However happy people say they are, nobody is satisfied: we always have to be with the prettiest woman, buy a bigger house, change cars, desire what we do not have.”

“Maybe God created the desert so that man could appreciate the date trees”

“God hides the fires of hell within paradise.”

“We lived on anarchist farms, squatted in the inner city, and hopped rail cars. We wanted to see how other young people were creating meaning from their lives.”

“When I was in Class II, we used to walk about 5 km. to school. I did not know of Olympics or even athletics then. One day, a friend went in a car and left me behind. I was so angry, I wanted to run and outrace the car. I ran so fast that I tripped and fractured my knee.”

“Things in themselves have no life in them. A car can't comfort or encourage you. A house means nothing if there's no life and love inside.”
