More quotes by Gregory David Roberts
The only power that has any real meaning is the power to better the world.

Sometimes we love with nothing more than hope. Sometimes we cry with everything except tears.
Gregory David Roberts
Love is a one-way street. Love, like respect isn't something you get it's something you give

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
Food is music to the body, music is food to the heart.
Gregory David Roberts
Some feelings sink so deep into the heart that only loneliness can help you find them again.
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
Cowardece is often just another name for being taken by surprise.
Gregory David Roberts
justice is not only the way we punish those who do wrong. It is also the way we try to save them.

Gregory David Roberts
I still love you. And sometimes, my friend, the love that I have, and can't give to you, crushes the breath from my chest. Sometimes, even now, my heart is drowning in a sorrow that has no stars without you, and no laughter, and no sleep.
Gregory David Roberts
