They begin the dance one day and finish it the next, or—such is the pleasure they experience—they may never finish it.”
—Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes“I am here to tell you that there are people who have never been defeated. They are the ones who have never fought. They managed to avoid scars, humiliations, and feelings of helplessness, as well as those moments when even warriors doubt the existence of God. Such people can say with pride: "I have never lost a battle." On the other hand, they can never say: "I have won a battle." Not that they care. They live in a universe in which they believe they are invulnerable; they close their eyes to injustices and suffering; they feel safe because they do not have to deal with daily challenges faced by those who risk stepping out of their own boundaries. They have never heard the words "good-bye" or "I've come back. Embrace me with the fervor of someone who, having lost me, has found me again.”
—Paulo Coelho. Manuscript Found in Accra“We are travelers on a cosmic journey, stardust swirling and dancing in the eddies and whirlpools of infinity. Life is eternal. We have stopped for a moment to encounter each other, to meet, to love, to share. This is a precious moment. It is a little parenthesis in eternity. ”
