Cred ca am gresit, ca am pierdut, intr-un anumit moment, legatura cu femeia pe care o iubeam. Iar acum nu am nevoie decat de-o harta, vreau sa ma duc la ea

After weeks on the road, listening to a language you don’t understand, using a currency whose value you don’t comprehend, walking down streets you’ve never walked down before, you discover that your old “I,” along with everything you ever learned, is absolutely no use at all in the face of those new challenges, and you begin to realize that buried deep in your unconscious mind there is someone much more interesting and adventurous and more open to the world and to new experiences.

I ran across an excerpt today (in English translation) of some dialogue/narration from the modern popular writer, Paulo Coelho in his book: Aleph.(Note: bracketed text is mine.)... 'I spoke to three scholars,' [the character says 'at last.'] ...two of them said that, after death, the [sic (misprint, fault of the publisher)] just go to Paradise. The third one, though, told me to consult some verses from the Koran. [end quote]' ...I can see that he's excited. [narrator]' ...Now I have many positive things to say about Coelho: He is respectable, inspiring as a man, a truth-seeker, and an appealing writer; but one should hesitate to call him a 'literary' writer based on this quote. A 'literary' author knows that a character's excitement should be 'shown' in his or her dialogue and not in the narrator's commentary on it. Advice for Coelho: Remove the 'I can see that he's excited' sentence and show his excitement in the phrasing of his quote.(Now, in defense of Coelho, I am firmly of the opinion, having myself written plenty of prose that is flawed, that a novelist should be forgiven for slipping here and there.)Lastly, it appears that a belief in reincarnation is of great interest to Mr. Coelho ... Just think! He is a man who has achieved, (as Leonard Cohen would call it), 'a remote human possibility.' He has won lots of fame and tons of money. And yet, how his preoccupation with reincarnation—none other than an interest in being born again as somebody else—suggests that he is not happy!

They know what the “perfumes” are going to say because they
always say the same thing, but they pretend to believe them anyway.
(a)“I could change your life.”
(b)“A lot of women would like to be in your shoes.”
(c)“You’re young now, but what will become of you in a few
years’ time? You need to think about making a longer-term
investment.”
(d)“I’m married, but my wife . . .” (This opening line can have
various endings: “. . . is ill,” “. . . has threatened to commit
suicide if I leave her,” etc.)
(e)“You’re a princess and deserve to be treated like one. I didn’t
know it until now, but I’ve been waiting for you. I don’t believe
in coincidences and I really think we ought to give this relationship a chance.

Citaría a Platón, ya que estaría ante un intelectual. Según él, al principio de la creación, los hombres y las mujeres no eran como son hoy; había sólo un ser, que era bajo, con un cuerpo, pero cuya cabeza tenía dos caras, cada una mirando en una dirección. Era como si dos criaturas estuviesen pegadas por la espalda, con dos sexos opuestos, cuatro piernas, cuatro brazos.
Los dioses griegos, sin embargo, eran celosos, y vieron que una criatura que tenía cuatro brazos trabajaba más, dos caras opuesta estaban siempre vigilantes y no podían ser atacadas a traición, cuatro piernas no exigiían tanto esfuerzo para permaneces de pie o andar durante largos períodos. Y lo que era más peligroso: la criatura tenía dos sexos diferentes, no necesitaba a nadie más para seguir reproduciéndose en la Tierra.
Entonces dijo Zeus, el supremo señor del Olimpo: Tengo un planpara hacer que esos mortales pierdan su fuerza.
Y con un rayo, partió a la criatura en dos, y así creo al hombre y a la mujer. Eso aumentó mucho la población del mundo, y al mismo tiempo desorientó y debilitó a los que en él habitaban, porque ahora tenían que buscar su parte perdida, abrazarla de nuevo, y en ese abrazo recuperar la antigua fuerza, la capacidad de evitar la traición, la resistencia para andar largos períodos y soportar el trabajo agotador. A ese abrazo donde los dos cuerpos se confunden de nuevo en uno lo llamamos sexo.

La locura es la incapacidad para comunicar tus ideas. Como si estuvieras en un país extranjero, viendo todo, entendiendo lo que pasa a tu alrededor, pero incapaz de explicarte y ser ayudado porque no entiendes la lengua que hablan allí.

There is only that moment, and the incredible certainty that everything under the sun has been written by one hand only. It is the hand that evokes love, and creates a twin soul for every person in the world. Without such love, one's dreams would have no meaning.

As he looked up at the clouds or down at the precipice, he realized that this woman was the most important thing in his life; that she was the explanation, the sole reason for the existence of those rocks, that sky, that winter. If she were not there with him, it wouldn't matter if all the angels of heaven came flying down to comfort him--Paradise would make no sense.
