if you have never read a paulo coelho book you are truly missing out on one intellectual adventure...a quote from one of my favorites,by the river piedra, i sat down and wept,
"One doesn’t love in order to do what is good or to help or to protect someone. If we act that way, we are perceiving the other as a simple object, and we seeing ourselves as wise and generous persons. This has nothing to do with love. To love is to be in communion with the other and to discover in that other the spark of God."
ps. he's brazilian and muito muito fantástico.
