More quotes by Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes

"No one loses anyone, because no one owns anyone. That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it"
"What made you fall in love with a prostitute?”“I didn’t understand it myself at the time. But I’ve thought about it since, and I think it was because, knowing that your body would never be mine alone, I had to concentrate on conquering your soul."
"When we meet someone and fall in love, we have a sense that the whole universe is on our side. And yet if something goes wrong, there is nothing left! How is it possible for the beauty that was there only minutes before to vanish so quickly? Life moves very fast. It rushes from heaven to hell in a matter of seconds."
"I can choose either to be a victim of the world or an adventurer in search of treasure. It's all a question of how I view my life."
"But if I don’t think about love, I will be nothing."
