More quotes by Gregory David Roberts
Suffering is how we test our love especially our love for God.
Gregory David Roberts
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.
Gregory David Roberts
Love is the opposite of power. That's why we fear it so much.
Gregory David Roberts
but there's no nation uncorrupted. there's no system that's immune to the misuse of money.
Gregory David Roberts
Silence is the tortured man's revenge.
Gregory David Roberts
Ask people for help. You'll be all right. Don't worry. It's a great adventure, your life, and it has only just begun.
Gregory David Roberts
Crime is stupid, lazy and weak. You can only exploit it and make money out of it.
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
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.
Gregory David Roberts
Friendship is an Algebra test that nobody passes.
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
In the face of all that is so wrong with the world, the very worst thing you can do is survive. And yet you must survive. It is this dilemma that makes us believe and cling to the lie that we have a soul, and that there is a God who cares about its fate.
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
I sometimes think that the size of our happiness is inversely proportional to the size of our house.
Gregory David Roberts
Because my life has been so notorious and so bad, it can overshadow my work.
Gregory David Roberts
If we can't respect the way we earn it, money has no value. If we can't use it to make life better for our families and loved ones, money has no purpose.
Gregory David Roberts
The voice, Afghan matchmakers say, is more than half of love.
Gregory David Roberts
There's no such thing as forever.
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
Once you love something, you can never stop loving it. Even after a divorce, the heart will not stop loving.
Gregory David Roberts
