Gregory David Roberts
Happiness is a myth. It was invented to make us buy new things.
Gregory David Roberts
There's no such thing as forever.
Gregory David Roberts
But I smiled, and smiling was easy, no matter how strange and disorienting the street seemed to be. I was a fugitive. I was a wanted man, a hunted man, with a price on my head. And I was still one step ahead of them. I was free. Every day, when you're on the run, is the whole of your life. Every free minute is a short story with a happy ending.

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.

For all his wisdom, he did not know that love cannot be tested. Honesty can be tested and loyalty. But there is not test for love. Love goes on forever, once it begins, even if we come to hate the one we love. Love goes on forever because love is born in the part of us that does not die.

Fate always gives you two choices, the one you should take, and the one you do.
Gregory David Roberts
Optimism is the first cousin of love, and it's exactly like love in three ways: it's pushy, it has no real sense of humour, and it turns up where you least expect it.
Gregory David Roberts
Heroes only come in three kinds:dead, damaged or dubious.
Gregory David Roberts
Never let anyone know what you're thinking - always know what the other thinks of you.
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
We have a saying in Marseilles: a man in no hurry gets nowhere fast. I have been in no hurry for eight years.
Gregory David Roberts
Prisons are the temples where devils learn to prey. Every time we turn the key we twist the knife of fate, because every time we cage a man we close him in with hate.
Gregory David Roberts
when you judge the power that is in a person, you must judge their capacities as both friend and as enemy.
