Aleph (2011)

Paulo Coelho książka Jedenaście minut

Źródło: Eleven Minutes (2003), p. 97.
Kontekst: In love, no one can harm anyone else; we are each of us responsible for our own feelings and cannot blame someone else for what we feel. It hurt when I lost each of the various men I fell in love with. Now, though, I am convinced that no one loses anyone, because no one owns anyone. That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it.
