“Maktub,” she said. “If I am really part of your dream, you’ll come back one day.”
― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

“I spent my life folded between the pages of books.
In the absence of human relationships I formed bonds with paper characters. I lived love and loss through stories threaded in history; I experienced adolescence by association. My world is one interwoven web of words, stringing limb to limb, bone to sinew, thoughts and images all together. I am a being comprised of letters, a character created by sentences, a figment of imagination formed through fiction.”
― Tahereh Mafi, Shatter Me

“Maktub" (It is written.)”
― Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
