Books are mirrors: you only see in them what you already have inside you.
Fools talk, cowards are silent, wise men listen.
Every book, every volume you see here, has a soul. The soul of the person who wrote it and of those who read it and lived and dreamed with it. Every time a book changes hands, every time someone runs his eyes down its pages, its spirit grows and strengthens.
Destiny is usually just around the corner. Like a thief, a hooker, or a lottery vendor: its three most common personifications. But what destiny does not do is home visits. You have to go for it.”
Every book has a soul, the soul of the person who wrote it and the soul of those who read it and dream about it.
There are few reasons for telling the truth, but for lying the number is infinite.
Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Shadow of the Wind
I don't suppose you have many friends. Neither do I. I don't trust people who say they have a lot of friends. It's a sure sign that they don't really know anyone.
Carlos Ruiz Zafón, The Angel's Game
