Quote by Paulo Coelho

Rarely do we realize that we are in the midst of the extraordinary. Miracles occur all around us, signs from God show us the way, angels plead to be heard, but we pay little attention to them because we have been taught that we must follow certain formulas and rules if we want to find God. We do not realize that God is wherever we allow Him/Her to enter.

Rarely do we realize that we are in the midst of the extraor

Summary

This quote highlights the idea that extraordinary things often go unnoticed in our daily lives because we are too focused on adhering to societal conventions and preconceived notions. It suggests that miracles, divine signs, and angelic messages occur regularly, but we neglect them because we believe that finding and connecting with God requires strict adherence to fixed patterns and regulations. The quote reminds us that God's presence can be felt everywhere if we are open and receptive, and that we should remain aware of the extraordinary moments and signs that surround us.

Science attempts to analyze how things and people and animal

Science attempts to analyze how things and people and animals behave; it has no concern whether this behavior is good or bad, is purposeful or not. But religion is precisely the quest for such answers: whether an act is right or wrong, good or bad, and why.

On page 605, Blumenthal says that 'I made friends with Hitchens's friends the novelists Martin Amis and Salman Rushdie.' True in its way. I particularly remember the occasion when he called me up and invited me to dinner with Dick Morris, but only on condition that I brought Rushdie (who was staying in my house) along with me. No Rushdie: no invitation. So I never did get to meet Dick Morris.

A few years ago it dawned on me that everybody past a certain age ... pretty much constantly dreams of being able to escape from their lives. They don't want to be who they are any more. They want out. This list includes Thurston Howell the Third, Ann-Margret, the cat members of Rent, VÃ¡clav Havel, space shuttle astronauts and Snuffleupagus. It's universal.

There is a sort of veteran woman of condition, who, having lived always in the grand monde, and having possibly had some gallantries, together with the experience of five and twenty or thirty years, form a young fellow better than all the rules that can be given him. Wherever you go, make some of those women your friends; which a very little matter will do. Ask their advice, tell them your doubts or difficulties as to your behavior; but take great care not to drop one word of their experience; for experience implies age, and the suspicion of age, no woman, let her be ever so old, ever forgives.

Lord Chesterfield

Tiny: You know what's a great metaphor for love? Me: I have a feeling you're about to tell me... Tiny: Sleeping beauty... because you have to plow through this incredible thicket of thorns in order to get to beauty, and even then, when you get there, you still have to wake her up.
