"But something always went
wrong, and the relationship would end precisely at the moment when she was sure
that this was the person with whom she wanted to spend the rest of her life.
After a long time, she came to the conclusion that men brought only pain,
frustration, suffering and a sense of time dragging.”
"I am two women: one wants
to have all the joy, passion and adventure that life can give me. The other
wants to be a slave to routine, to family life, to the things that can be
planned and achieved. I'm a housewife and a prostitute, both of us living in
the same body and doing battle with each other.”
"Human beings can
withstand a week without water, two weeks without food, many years of
homelessness, but not loneliness. It is the worst of all tortures, the worst of
all sufferings.”
"Love is not to be found
in someone else, but in ourselves; we simply awaken it. But in order to do
that, we need the other person. The universe only makes sense when we have
someone to share our feelings with.”
"I’ve learned that waiting
is the most difficult bit, and I want to get used to the feeling, knowing that
you’re with me, even when you’re not by my side.”
"Dreaming is very pleasant
as long as you are not forced to put your dreams into practice.”
"No one loses anyone, because no one owns anyone. That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it”
"When I had nothing to
lose, I had everything. When I stopped being who I am, I found myself.”
"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. ”
"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.”
"Life always waits for
some crisis to occur before revealing itself at its most brilliant.”
"Profound desire, true
desire is the desire to be close to someone.”
"Everything
tells me that I am about to make a wrong decision, but making mistakes is just
part of life. What does the world want of me? Does it want me to take no risks,
to go back to where I came from because I didn't have the courage to say
"yes" to life?”
