Paulo Coelho
“Sometimes there's just no way to hold back the river.”
Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

Paulo Coelho
“Don't think about what you've left behind" The alchemist said to the boy as they began to ride across the sands of the desert. "If what one finds is made of pure matter, it will never spoil. And one can always come back. If what you had found was only a moment of light, like the explosion of a star, you would find nothing on your return.”
Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

Paulo Coelho
“Why do we have to listen to our hearts?” the boy asked, when they had made camp that day.
“Because, wherever your heart is, that is where you’ll find your treasure.”
“But my heart is agitated,” the boy said. “It has its dreams, it gets emotional, and it’s become passionate over a woman of the dessert. It asks things of me, and it keeps me from sleeping many nights when I’m thinking about her.”
“Well, that’s good. Your heart is alive. Keep listening to what it has to say.”
Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

Kevin Brockmeier
“Sometimes you imagine that everything could have been different for you, that if only you had gone right one day when you chose to go left, you would be living a life you could never have anticipated. But at other times you think there was no other way forward--that you were always bound to end up exactly where you have.”
Kevin Brockmeier, The View from the Seventh Layer

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