"In all languages in the world, there's the same proverb: "What the eyes don't see, the heart doesn't grieve over". Well, I say there isn't an ounce of truth in it. The further off they are, the closer to the heart are all those feelings we try to repress and forget. If we are in exile, we want to store away every tiny memory of our roots. If we're far from the person we love, everyone we pass in the street reminds us of them." Eleven Minutes, Paulo Coelho
"After a while she began to enter a kind of paradise, the feelings grew in intensity, until she noticed that she could no longer see or hear clearly, everything appeared to be tinged with yellow, and then she moaned with pleasure and had her first orgasm. Orgasm! It was like floating up to heaven and then parachuting slowly down to earth again." Eleven Minutes, Paulo Coelho
"All my life, I thought of love as some kind of voluntary enslavement. Well, that's a lie: freedom only exists when love is present. The person who gives him or herself wholly, the person who feels freest, is the person who loves most wholeheartedly." — Paulo Coelho (Eleven Minutes: A Novel)
"When we meet someone and fall in love, we have a sense that the whole universe is on our side. And yet if something goes wrong, there is nothing left! How is it possible for the beauty that was there only minutes before to vanish so quickly? Life moves very fast. It rushes from heaven to hell in a matter of seconds." — Paulo Coelho (Eleven Minutes: A Novel)
"Anyone who is in love is making love the whole time, even when they're not. When two bodies meet, it is just the cup overflowing. They can stay together for hours, even days. They begin the dance one day and finish it the next, or--such is the pleasure they experience--they may never finish it. No eleven minutes for them." — Paulo Coelho (Eleven Minutes: A Novel)
“Passion makes a person stop eating, sleeping, working, feeling at peace. A lot of people are frightened because, when it appears, it demolishes all the old things it finds in its path. No one wants their life thrown into chaos. That is why a lot of people keep that threat under control, and are somehow capable of sustaining a house or a structure that is already rotten. They are the engineers of the superseded. Other people think exactly the opposite: they surrender themselves without a second thought, hoping to find in passion the solutions to all their problems. They make the other person responsible for their happiness and blame them for their possible unhappiness. They are either euphoric because something marvelous has happened or depressed because something unexpected has just ruined everything. Keeping passion at bay or surrendering blindly to it - which of these two attitudes is the least destructive? I don’t know.”
— Paulo Coelho (Eleven Minutes: A Novel)
A blessing ignored becomes a curse.
Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist (via gaeaaa)
About the nature of human beings. I discovered that confronted by temptation, we will always fall. Given the right circumstances, every human being on this earth would be willing to commit evil.
Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym
I am the Soul and Body is my visible part.
Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes

Accept what life offers you and try to drink from every cup. All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle.
Brida (Paulo Coelho) (via sleepandchocolate)
“Nothing in the world is ever completely wrong, my dear,” said her (Brida) father, looking at the clock. “Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.”

Madness is the inability to communicate your ideas. It’s as if you were in a foreign country, able to see and understand everything around you, but incapable of explaining what you need to know or of being helped, because you don’t understand the language they speak there. We’ve all felt that. And all of us, one way or another, are mad.
Veronika Decides to Die, Paolo Coelho (via treppenwitz)
-…¿Qué es la realidad? -Es lo que la mayoría de la gente consideró que debía ser. No necesariamente lo mejor, ni lo más lógico, sino lo que se adaptó al deseo colectivo. ¿Usted ve lo que llevo alrededor del cuello? -Una corbata. -Muy bien. Su respuesta es lógica y coherente, propia de una persona absolutamente normal: «una corbata» . »Un loco, sin embargo, diría que yo tengo alrededor del cuello una tela de colores, ridícula, inútil, atada de una manera complicada, que termina dificultando los movimientos de la cabeza y exigiendo un esfuerzo mayor para que el aire pueda penetrar en los pulmones. Si yo me distrajera estando cerca de un ventilador, podría morir estrangulado por esta tela. »Si un loco me preguntara para qué sirve una corbata, yo tendría que responderle: para absolutamente nada. Ni siquiera para adornar, porque hoy en día se ha tornado en el símbolo de la esclavitud, del poder, del distanciamiento. La única utilidad de la corbata consiste en llegar a la casa y podérnosla quitar, dándonos la sensación de que estamos libres de algo que no sabemos lo que es. »¿Pero la sensación de alivio justifica la existencia de la corbata? No. Aún así, si yo pregunto a un loco y a una persona normal qué es eso, será considerado cuerdo aquel que responda: «una corbata». No importa quien dice la verdad, importa quien tiene razón. -De donde usted dedujo que no estoy loca, pues di el nombre adecuado a la tela de colores.
Veronika decide morir - Paulo Coelho (via carlos-v)
No sentía enojo contra nadie, porque eso significa tener que reaccionar, combatir a un enemigo y luego aguantar consecuencias imprevisibles, como venganza.
Paulo Coelho (Veronika Decide Morir) (via sound-of-truth)
Veronika Decides to Die.
Dr. Igor: We all want different things. And our partners do too. What's wrong with that?
Veronika: You tell me.
Dr. Igor: There's everything wrong with it. Because when everyone dreams, but only a few realize their dreams, that makes cowards of us all.
Veronika: Even if those few are right?
Dr. Igor: The person who's right is just the person who's strongest. In this case, paradoxically, it's the cowards who are the brave ones, and they manage to impose their ideas on everyone else.
