4.0
"Somehow it dawned on me that Gabriela, my childhood love, had come back to me because I'd filled a saucer with milk. There was no apparent link between the two things, but they were connected at a deeper level"(p 32).
"On Saturday morning I work up feeling more upbeat. We're never alone, and the idea that we are is just another human illusion"(p. 99).
**"Thousands of candles can be lit by just one candle, and the life of that candle will not be shorter because of it. Happiness is never diminished by being shared"(Buddha)(p. 100).
"The lesson was clear. I, too had to be attentive from now on. I looked forward to the week ahead and realized that anything could happen. The secret lay in keeping my eyes wide open and leaping fearlessly when the time was right"( p. 103).
"So it seems, but don't forget that, like the moon, people have dark side"(p. 110).
"Let us be thankful, for if we have not learned a lot today, we have at least learned a little; and if we have not learned a little, we have at least not fallen ill; and if we have fallen ill, we have at least not died, and for this we are thankful"(p. 130).
"In order to accept the love of others, you need a wise heart because rejection's easier to cope with than love. You can turn against someone who is attacking you, but what are you supposed to do when someone reveals their love for you?"(p. 147).
"We live in a world of sensations and feelings. Always remember that, Samuel. Never reject your sensations and feelings. They're all you've got"(p. 165).
"I was wildly happy and full of energy. Someone once said that when you fall in love, you're not really in love with the person but with life through that person. This was happening to me"(P. 179).
