It is common knowledge that no man that women flock to boasts of his conquests. Those who do, lie  (Isabel Allende Quotes) The names of persons and living creatures demand respect, because when we speak to them we touch their heart and become a part of thier life force  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Perhaps we are in this world to search for love, find it and lose it, again and again. With each love, we are born anew, and with each love that ends we collect a new wound. I am covered with proud scars  (Isabel Allende Quotes) At the most difficult moments of my life, when it seemed that every door was closed to me, the taste of those apricots comes back to comfort me with the notion that abundance is always within reach, if only one knows how to find it  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Fear is inevitable, I have to accept that, but I cannot allow it to paralyze me  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Nations should be governed by a council of learned men who must answer to the people for their actions  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Literary characters, like my grandmother’s apparitions, are fragile beings, easily frightened; they must be treated with care so they will feel comfortable in my pages  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Seated by her side in the narrow cabin, pressing cold compresses to her forehead and holding her while she vomited, he felt profoundly happy  (Isabel Allende Quotes) ... a fixation is very stubborn: it burrows into the brain and breaks the heart. There are many fixations, but love is the worst  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Writing is like making love. Don’t worry about the orgasm, just concentrate on the process  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Reading is like looking through several windows which open to an infinite landscape... For me life without reading would be like being in prison, it would be as if my spirit were in a straightjacket; life would be a very dark and narrow place  (Isabel Allende Quotes) I seek truth and beauty in the transparency of an autumn leaf, in the perfect form of a seashell on the beach, in the curve of a woman’s back, in the texture of an ancient tree trunk, but also in the elusive forms of reality  (Isabel Allende Quotes) You are the storyteller of your own life, and you can create your own legend, or not  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Memory is fiction. We select the brightest and the darkest, ignoring what we are ashamed of, and so embroider the broad tapestry of our lives  (Isabel Allende Quotes) If I write something, I fear it will happen, and if I love too much, I fear I will lose that person; nevertheless, I cannot stop writing or loving  (Isabel Allende Quotes) How many times have I told you not to believe everything you hear? Seek truth for yourself  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Silence before being born, silence after death: life is nothing but noise between two unfathomable silences  (Isabel Allende Quotes) I learned very quickly that when you emigrate, you lose the crutches that have been your support; you must begin from zero, because the past is erased with a single stroke and no one cares where you’re from or what you did before  (Isabel Allende Quotes) You only have what you give. It’s by spending yourself that you become rich  (Isabel Allende Quotes) I have seen these persons speak unthinkingly, not realizing that to speak is also to be. Word and gesture are man’s thought. We should not speak without reason  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Music is a wind that blows away the years, memories, and fear, that crouching animal I carry inside me  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Write with honesty and don’t worry about the feelings of others, because no matter what you say, they’ll hate you anyway  (Isabel Allende Quotes) My father says that fear is good; it’s the body’s alarm system, it warns us of danger. But sometimes danger can’t be avoided, and then you have to forget about being afraid  (Isabel Allende Quotes) How can one not speak about war, poverty, and inequality when people who suffer from these afflictions don’t have a voice to speak?  (Isabel Allende Quotes) We live in an era where masses of people come and go across a hostile planet, desolate and violent. Refugees, emigrants, exiles, deportees. We are a tragic contingent  (Isabel Allende Quotes) If you change the way you tell your own story, you can change the colour and create a life in technicolour  (Isabel Allende Quotes) Sisters: talk to each other, be connected and informed, form women’s circles, share your stories, work together, and take risks. Together we are invincible  (Isabel Allende Quotes) I am happier when I love than when I am loved. I adore my husband, my son, my grandchildren, my mother, my dog, and frankly, I don’t know if they even like me. But who cares? Loving them is my joy  (Isabel Allende Quotes) You are my angel and my damnation; in your presence I reach divine ecstasy and in your absence I descent to hell  (Isabel Allende Quotes) The first two, three, four weeks are wasted. I just show up in front of the computer. Show up, show up, show up, and after a while the muse shows up, too. If she doesn’t show up invited, eventually she just shows up  (Isabel Allende Quotes)
