“You are someone who is different, but who wants to be the same as everyone else. And that in my view is a serious illness. God chose you to be different. Why are you disappointing God with this kind of attitude?”

“Me hab铆an regalado un libro de Paulo Coelho... "Cuando quieres algo, todo el universo se conjura para que realices tu deseo", dice. Creo que Paulo Coelho no se ha topado nunca con los talibanes y nuestros 辫辞濒铆迟颈肠辞蝉 in煤tiles.”

“I ran across an excerpt today (in English translation) of some dialogue/narration from the modern popular writer, Paulo Coelho in his book: Aleph.(Note: bracketed text is mine.)... 'I spoke to three scholars,' [the character says 'at last.'] ...two of them said that, after death, the [sic (misprint, fault of the publisher)] just go to Paradise. The third one, though, told me to consult some verses from the Koran. [end quote]' ...I can see that he's excited. [narrator]' ...Now I have many positive things to say about Coelho: He is respectable, inspiring as a man, a truth-seeker, and an appealing writer; but one should hesitate to call him a 'literary' writer based on this quote. A 'literary' author knows that a character's excitement should be 'shown' in his or her dialogue and not in the narrator's commentary on it. Advice for Coelho: Remove the 'I can see that he's excited' sentence and show his excitement in the phrasing of his quote.(Now, in defense of Coelho, I am firmly of the opinion, having myself written plenty of prose that is flawed, that a novelist should be forgiven for slipping here and there.)Lastly, it appears that a belief in reincarnation is of great interest to Mr. Coelho ... Just think! He is a man who has achieved, (as Leonard Cohen would call it), 'a remote human possibility.' He has won lots of fame and tons of money. And yet, how his preoccupation with reincarnation鈥攏one other than an interest in being born again as somebody else鈥攕uggests that he is not happy!”

“icen que a lo largo de nuestra vida tenemos dos grandes amores; uno con el que te casas o vives para siempre, puede que el padre o la madre de tus hijos, esa persona con la que consigues la compenetraci贸n m谩xima para estar el resto de tu vida junto a ella.
Y dicen que hay un segundo gran amor, una persona que perder谩s siempre. Alguien con quien naciste conectado, tan conectado que las fuerzas de la qu铆mica escapan a la raz贸n y te impedir谩, siempre, alcanzar un final feliz. Hasta que cierto d铆a dejar谩s de intentarlo. Te rendir谩s y buscar谩s a esa otra persona que acabar谩s encontrando.
Pero te aseguro que no pasar谩s una sola noche sin necesitar otro beso suyo, o tan siquiera discutir una vez m谩s. Todos sab茅is de qu茅 estoy hablando, porque mientras estabais leyendo esto os ha venido su nombre a la cabeza.
Te librar谩s de 茅l o de ella, dejar谩s de sufrir, conseguir谩s encontrar la paz (le sustituir谩s por la calma), pero te aseguro que no pasar谩 un d铆a en que desees que estuviera aqu铆 para perturbarte鈥�
Porque, a veces, se desprende m谩s energ铆a discutiendo con alguien a quien amas que haciendo el amor con alguien a quien aprecias.”
― The Zahir

“When people consult me,it's not that I'm reading the future;I am guessing at the future.The future belongs to God,and it is only he who reveals it,under extraordinary circumstances.How do I guess at the future?Based on the omens of the present.The secret is here in the present.If you pay attention to the present,you can improve upon it.

“i believe in One God,though you think that the gods dwell in those clouds on the Fifth Mountain.i don't want to argue whether my God is stronger or more powerful;I would speak not of our differences but of our similarities.Tragedy has united us in a single sentiment:despair.Why has that come to pass?Because we thought that everything was answered and decided in our souls,and we could accept no changes.”

“-Tanultam valamit a S枚t茅t 脡jszak谩r贸l-mondta az erd艖nek, amely most cs枚ndes volt.-Megtanultam, hogy az Isten-keres茅s egy S枚t茅t 脡jszaka. Hogy a Hit egy S枚t茅t 脡jszaka. Nem csoda. Az ember minden napja egy s枚t茅t 茅jszaka. Senki sem tudhatja el艖re, hogy mi fog t枚rt茅nni a k枚vetkez艖 percben, az emberek m茅gis mennek el艖re. Mert b铆znak. Mert van hit眉k.”
