God hides the fires of hell within paradise. - Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

"In fairy tales, the princesses kiss the frogs, and the frogs become princes. In real life, the pricesses kiss princes, and the princes turn into frogs."

"In real life, love has to be possible. Even if it is not returned right away, love can only survive when the hope exists that you will be able to win over the person you desire."

"Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows."

"If pain must come, may it come quickly. Because I have a life to live, and I need to live it in the best way possible. If he has to make a choice, may he make it now. Then I will either wait for him or forget him."

"If I must fall, may it be from a high place."
