You can't find someone who doesn't want to be found.
Isabel Allende

I seek truth and beauty in the transparency of an autumn leaf, in the perfect form of a seashell on the beach, in the curve of a woman's back, in the texture of an ancient tree trunk, but also in the elusive forms of reality.
Isabel Allende
Image
Silence before being born, silence after death: life is nothing but noise between two unfathomable silences.
Isabel Allende
Image
All stories interest me, and some haunt me until I end up writing them.
Isabel Allende
Image

She was considered timid and morose. Only in the country, her skin tanned by the sun and her belly full of ripe fruit, running through the fields with Pedro Tercero, was she smiling and happy.

I'm surrounded by the scene of aging. I myself am in my 70s and not getting any younger. Although I'm very healthy, and I have a lot of energy, and I still feel 50, I'm over 70 and I understand that I am preparing for later.
Isabel Allende
Image
I have travelled all over the world and one thing that amazes me is that I can communicate with people. My story may be different but emotionally we are all the same.
Isabel Allende
Image
The world starts to exist, for Americans, when we are in conflict with a place. And then all of a sudden, Afghanistan pops up on the TV screen and it becomes a place. And it exists for three weeks and then it disappears into thin air.
Isabel Allende
Image
Just as Daniel Balalcazar said, it makes no sense to suffer in advance a misfortune that may never occur.
Isabel Allende
Image
write with honesty and don't worry about the feelings of others, because no matter what you say, they'll hate you anyway.
Isabel Allende
Image
I need to tell a story. It's an obsession. Each story is a seed inside of me that starts to grow and grow, like a tumor, and I have to deal with it sooner or later.
Isabel Allende
Image
I tend to see the similarities in people and not the differences.
Isabel Allende
Image
We don't have an explanation for everything that happens. We don't control almost anything. And if we are not open to that mystery, life becomes so small.
Isabel Allende
Image
It's going to go away because we all need silence. We all need time to reflect and think. I am not at all pessimistic about this.
