More quotes by Gregory David Roberts
Friendship is an Algebra test that nobody passes.
Gregory David Roberts
Suffering is how we test our love especially our love for God.
Gregory David Roberts
Sometimes we love with nothing more than hope. Sometimes we cry with everything except tears.
Gregory David Roberts
Friendship is also a kind of medicine, and the markets for it, too, are sometimes black.
Gregory David Roberts
None of us lie or guard our secrets when we sing, and India is a nation of singers whose first love is the kind of song we turn to when crying just isn't enough.
Gregory David Roberts
There's a kind of luck that's not much more than being in the right place at the right time, a kind of inspiration that's not much more than doing the right thing in the right way, and both only really happen to you when you empty your heart of ambition, purpose, and plan when you give yourself, completely, to the golden, fate-filled moment.
Gregory David Roberts
The voice, Afghan matchmakers say, is more than half of love.
Gregory David Roberts
People say that love is the best thing in the world not power. But they are wrong. Love is the opposite of power and that's why we fear it so much.
Gregory David Roberts
every human heart beat is a universe of possibilities.
Gregory David Roberts
I think the future is like anything else that's important. It has to be earned. If we don't earn it, we don't have a future at all. And if we don't earn it, we don't deserve it, we have to live in the present, more or less forever. Or worse, we have to live in the past. I think that's probably what love is - a way of earning the future.
Gregory David Roberts
Some feelings sink so deep into the heart that only loneliness can help you find them again. Some truths are so painful that only shame can help you live with them. Some things are so sad that only your soul can do the crying for them.
Gregory David Roberts
There is no man, and no place, without war. The only thing we can do is choose a side, and fight. That is the only choice we get - who we fight for, who we fight against. That is life.
Gregory David Roberts
It took me a long time and most of the world to learn what I know about love and fate and the choices we make, but the heart of it came to me in an instant, while I was chained to a wall and being tortured.\
Gregory David Roberts
Silence is the tortured man's revenge.
Gregory David Roberts
Never let anyone know what you're thinking - always know what the other thinks of you.
Gregory David Roberts
So when will be the time to get on the train? I think.....a little bit almost quite very soon and not long.
Gregory David Roberts
Praising people behind their back is monstrously unfair, because the one thing you can't defend yourself against is the good that people say about you.
Gregory David Roberts
They claim a hidden corner of our hearts, all those moments that stay with us unscreamed. That's where loves, like elephants, drag themselves to die. It's the place where pride allows itself to cry.
Gregory David Roberts
but there's no nation uncorrupted. there's no system that's immune to the misuse of money.
Gregory David Roberts
There’s too much love in the world. Sometimes I think that’s what heaven is---- a place where everybody’s happy because nobody loves anybody else, ever.
