Brazilian Lyricist and Novelist
"Love is not a habit, a commitment, or a debt. It isn't what romantic songs tell us it is - love simply is."
"Love is made up of nine ingredients: Patience: Love is patient? Kindness: ?and kind. Generosity: Love does not envy? Humility: ?or boast; it is not arrogant... Courtesy: ?or rude. Unselfishness: It does not insist on its own way. Good temper: It is not irritable? or resentful. Guilelessness: or resentful. Sincerity: It does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth."
"Love is not a habit, obligation, or debt. Or this one, which speak of romantic songs - love is just ... No definitions. Adore and Never ask. Only love."
"Love is not swayed by opinions; love accepts its companion unconditionally and allows each to grow in his or her own way."
"Love is not to be found in someone else but in ourselves; we simply awaken it. But in order to do that, we need the other person."
"Love is not the other, is within ourselves; we woke up. But we need to wake the other. The universe only makes sense when we have someone to share our emotions."
"Love is not to be found in someone else, but in ourselves; we simply awaken it. But in order to do that, we need the other person. The universe only makes sense when we have someone to share our feelings with."
"Love is only a word, until we decide to let it possess us with all its force. Love is only a word, until someone arrives to give it meaning. Don't give up. Remember, it's always the last key on the key ring that opens the door."
"Love is patient. That is the normal behavior of Love, wait calmly, without haste, knowing that at some point may be expressed."
"Love is patient and kind, love is not consumed in jealousy, it does not brag, is not proud, does not behave inconveniently, does not seek its interests, not exasperated, suffers no evil; does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
"Love is patient, is kind, Love is not consumed in jealousy."
"Love is the force that brings us back together, in order to condense the experience dispersed in many lives and many parts of the world."
"Love is the falcon?s flight over your sands. Because for him, you are a green field, from which he always returns with game. He knows your rocks, your dunes, and your mountains, and you are generous to him."
"Love is the force that brings us together again, to condense the scattered experience in many lives."
"Love is the force that transforms and improves the Soul of the World. When I first reached through to it, I thought the Soul of the World was perfect. But later I could see that it was like other aspects of creation, and had its own passions and wars. It is we who nourish the Soul of the World, and the world we live in will be either better or worse, depending on whether we become better or worse. And that's where the power of love comes in. Because when we love, we always strive to become better than we are."
"Love is the force that transforms and improves the Soul of the World."
"Love is the most powerful love can manifest its weakness. Anyway, if my love is real (and not just how to distract yourself, deceive yourself, and to give time-something that always seems to stand still in this city-as well lapse) , then freedom will conquer jealousy and any pain it causes me, since pain is a natural part of the process. Anyone who has played sports knows this: if you want to achieve your goals, you must be prepared to undergo the discomfort every day, which is the pain and discomfort. Initially, it can be devastating and oblivion motivated action, but at the same time you realize it's the part of the process of sensing good things, and when that time comes, if you do not feel pain, you will have a feeling that the exercise is not as effective as expected."
"Love is the power that will never be defeated. If we try to control it, love will ruin us. If we tried to keep it, love will enslave us. If we try to understand it, love will leave us in a quandary."
"Love is, after all, a curse of suffering."
"Love lasts because it changes and not because it stays the same and never faces any challenges."
"Love never comes just a little bit at a time, I thought, as I watched him, absorbed in contemplation of the Virgin. The previous day, the world made sense, even without love's presence. But now we needed each other in order to see the true brilliance of things."
"Love overcomes the time, or rather, love is a time and place together, but the center point and one sustained development, the thousandth."
"Love never keeps a man follow his Personal Legend. When this happens, it is because it was not true love, the one who speaks the Language of the World."
"Love rules, but no one knows where it has its throne; in order to know that secret place, you must first submit to Love."
"Love simply is."
"Love one another, but let?s try not to possess one another."
"Love perseveres. It's men who change."
"Love would never keep a man from his Personal Legend."
"Love was the key to understanding all of the mysteries."
"Love, however, is different - he comes, puts himself in and takes over the management. Only let yourself be led by a very strong souls."
"Love your enemy. But don't forget: he is not your friend."
"Love, no doubt, is a powerful thing can change the entire life of a human being, from the moment it appeared. But that is only one side, the other side is it possible that the existence of a person steps on a journey totally different from what he or she had planned; and it is called despair. Yeah, maybe love can make people completely changed, but the desperation do it even faster."
"Love transforms and love cures; but, sometimes, love builds deadly traps and can end up destroying a person who had resolved to give him or herself completely. What is this complex feeling which, deep down, is the only reason we continue to live, struggle and improve?"
"Love, then, is ?the fulfilling of the Law?. Love is the rule that contains all the other rules. Love is the commandment that justifies all the other commandments. Love is the secret of life."
"Love: power is tamed, when we try to control them destroy us, when we try to families, pelt us when we try to understand the loss and confusion."
"Loving means being open to miracles, to victories and defeats, to everything that happens each day that was given us to walk upon the face of the Earth."
"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."
"Love, too, was just a question of time."
"Loyalty has its roots in respects, and respect is the fruit of Love."
"Love was above everything else, and there was no hatred in love, only the occasional mistake."
"Love was a feeling completely bound up with color, like thousands of rainbows superimposed one on top of the other."
"Loving means to achieve communion with others and discover the divine spark in him."
"Magical places are always beautiful and deserve to be contemplated ... Always stay on the bridge between the invisible and the visible."
"Loyalty can never be imposed by force, fear, insecurity, or intimidation."
"Made some mistakes, but I was not a coward. I lived my life and did what I loved to do."
"Man must be afraid of the unknown, because every human being is capable of acquiring? What has all that is necessary is that we are afraid of losing? but this fear evaporated when we understand that the process of our becoming the world has its hands of one"
"Man needs to choose, not just accept his destiny."
"Man needs what he has in itself worse, to achieve what is best there is in him."
"Make whatever decision you wish but never forget one thing: all of you are much better than you believed. Take advantage of the chance that tragedy has given you; not everyone is capable of doing so"
"Making a decision was only the beginning of things. When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision."
