Isabel Allende
His calls for justice were lost at the mercy of the wind and human indifference.
Isabel Allende
Wishes and fears are illusions, Dil Bahadur, not realities. You must practice detachment.
Isabel Allende
This is to assuage our conscience, darling she would explain to Blanca. But it doesn't help the poor. They don't need chartiy they need justice.
Isabel Allende
The first lie of fiction is that the author gives some order to the chaos of life: chronological order, or whatever order the author chooses.
Isabel Allende
Words are not that important when you recognize intentions.
Isabel Allende
Every person is born with a talent, and happiness depends on discovering that talent in time.
Isabel Allende
