When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

I am not a self-help writer. I am a self-problem writer. When people read my books, I provoke some things. I cannot justify my work. I do my work; it is up to them to classify it, to judge.

The more in harmony with yourself you are, the more joyful you are and the more faithful you are. Faith is not to disconnect you from reality - it connects you to reality.

I don't go to parties in general.

I cry very easily. It can be a movie, a phone conversation, a sunset - tears are words waiting to be written.

I had this dream to become a writer since I was a teenager.

I'd have stopped writing years ago if it were for the money.

All women have a perception much more developed than men. So all women somehow, being repressed for so many millennia, they ended up by developing this sixth sense and contemplation and love. And this is something that we have a hard time to accept as part of our society.

Everything for me is sacred, beginning with earth, but also going to things made by man.

No one can lie, no one can hide anything, when he looks directly into someone's eyes.

Love can consign us to hell or to paradise, but it always takes us somewhere.

When a person really desires something, all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream.

We have to stop and be humble enough to understand that there is something called mystery. 

Every day I try to be in communication with the universe in an unconscious way.

I write from my soul. This is the reason that critics don't hurt me, because it is me. If it was not me, if I was pretending to be someone else, then this could unbalance my world, but I know who I am.

Everything is possible, from angels to demons to economists and politicians.

I don't try to control my days. 

I'm first and foremost a writer. I followed my personal legend, my childhood dream of becoming a writer, but I can't say why I'm one.

With all due respect, the Mona Lisa is overrated.

The good old days, when each idea had an owner, are gone forever.

In writing, I apply my feminine side and respect the mystery involved in creation.

I have been practicing archery for a long time; a bow and arrow helps me to unwind.

The gigantic tension before the shooting of an arrow, and the total relaxation seconds later, is my way of connecting to the universe.

Things do not always happen the way I would like them to happen, and I had better get used to that.

However happy people say they are, nobody is satisfied: we always have to be with the prettiest woman, buy a bigger house, change cars, desire what we do not have.

What I can say is that all my characters are searching for their souls, because they are my mirrors. I'm someone who is constantly trying to understand my place in the world, and literature is the best way that I found in order to see myself.

I don't set out to write about spirituality; I am free to do something different every time.

Writing is a solitary experience. I'm extremely superstitious. If I talk about the book or name the title out loud before finishing, I feel the energy I need to write will be drained. It's so intimate, I can't even share it with my wife.

I love almost everything about my work except conferences. I am too shy in front of an audience. But I love signings and having eye contact with a reader who already knows my soul.

When I'm dancing, I'm not thinking about anything. I am here. I am totally there. You know? And the feeling is a sensation of being away from myself. My soul dances with the angels, and my body dances with my wife.

It took me 40 years to write my first book. When I was a child, I was encouraged to go to school. I was not encouraged to follow the career of a writer because my parents thought that I was going to starve to death.

I've done everything I wanted to do, even if I have had to pay a very high price - which has been the case most of the time.

Twitter is my bar. I sit at the counter and listen to the conversations, starting others, feeling the atmosphere.

I never say I am a guru.

Everything that happens once can never happen again. But everything that happens twice will surely happen a third time.

The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.

When you are enthusiastic about what you do, you feel this positive energy. It's very simple.

One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving.

Never explain. Your friends won’t need it. And haters will continue to hate (because they also hate themselves)

Everybody has a creative potential and from the moment you can express this creative potential, you can start changing the world

“You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.

“The more in harmony with yourself you are, the more joyful you are and the more faithful you are. Faith is not to disconnect you from reality – it connects you to reality.”

“You can become blind by seeing each day as a similar one. Each day is a different one, each day brings a miracle of its own. It’s just a matter of paying attention to this miracle.”

The two worst strategic mistakes to make are acting prematurely and letting an opportunity slip; to avoid this, the warrior treats each situation as if it were unique and never resorts to formulae, recipes or other people’s opinions.”

“One day you will wake up and there won’t be any more time to do the things you’ve always wanted. Do it now.”

 “If you want to be successful, you must respect one rule – Never lie to yourself.”

“The act of discovering who we are will force us to accept that we can go further than we think.” 

 “The secret of life is to fall seven times and to get up eight times.”

“Don’t waste your time with explanations, people only hear what they want to hear.”

 “Don’t give in to your fears. If you do, you won’t be able to talk to your heart.
