Paulo Coelho quote #425 from By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

Love like rain can nourish from above drenching couples with a soaking joy. But sometimes under the angry heat of life love dries on the surface and must nourish from below tending to its roots keeping itself alive.

Paulo Coelho quote #458 from By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

Its risky falling in love.I know that I answered. Ive been in love before. Its like a narcotic. At first it brings the euphoria of complete surrender. The next day you want more. Youre not addicted yet but you like the sensation and you think you can still control things. You think about the person you love for two minutes and forget them for three hours.But then you get used to that person and you begin to be completely dependent on them. Now you think about him for three hours and forget him for two minutes. If hes not there you feel like an addict who cant get a fix. And just as addicts steal and humiliate themselves to get what they need youre willing to do anything for love.What a horrible way to put it he said.

Paulo Coelho quote #110 from By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

But love is always new. Regardless of whether we love once twice or a dozen times in our life we always face a brand-new situation. Love can consign us to hell or to paradise but it always takes us somewhere. We simply have to accept it because it is what nourishes our existence. If we reject it we die of hunger because we lack the courage to stretch out a hand and pluck the fruit from the branches of the tree of life. We have to take love where we find it even if that means hours days weeks of disappointment and sadness.The moment we begin to seek love love begins to seek us. And to save us.

Paulo Coelho quote #499 from By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

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.

All love stories have much in common. I wen through the same thing at one point in my life. But thats not what I remember. What I remember is that love returned in the form of another man new hopes and new dreams.
