Heaven and Earth are meeting in a storm that, when it's over, will leave the air purer and the leaves fertile, but before that happens, houses will be destroyed, centuries- old trees will topple, paradises will be flooded.
Paulo Coelho
Image
For those that were never wounded by love, they will never be able to say: “I lived”. Because they haven’t.
Paulo Coelho

God judges a tree by its fruits and not by its roots.
Paulo Coelho

The trouble with words is that they give us the illusory sense that we are making ourselves understood as well as understanding what others are saying. However, when we turn around and come face-to-face with our destiny, we discover that words are not enough.
Paulo Coelho
