The best quotes by Isabel Allende
Posted by: Pillola
Memory is fragile and the space of a single life is brief, passing so quickly that we never get a chance to see the relationship between events; we cannot gauge the consequences of our acts, and we believe in the fiction of past, present, and future, but it may also be true that everything happens simultaneously.

in Quotes & Aphorisms (Kiss)
Without thinking Francisco lured her to himself and he searched her lips.
It was an innocent, lukewarm, delicate kiss, however it had the effect of an earthquake in their senses. Both perceived the skin of the other one as never so specify and close, the pressure of their hands, the privacy of a contact gasped from the beginning of time. A beating heat invaded them in the bones, in the veins, in the soul, something that they didn't know or that they had completely forgotten, because the memory of the flesh is fragile. [...]
Actually it was hardly a kiss, the suggestion of a waited and inevitable contact, but both were sure that it would have been the only kiss that could have remembered until the end of their days and between all the caresses the only one that would have left a sure track on their nostalgia.

A day more to wait, one less to hope. A day more of silence, one less of life. The death wander through the hallways and my task is to enjoy her because she doesn't find your door.

With age, you acquire a certain humility, Alexander. The longer I live, the more uninformed I feel. Only the young have an explanation for everything. At your age, you can afford to commit the sin of arrogance, and it doesn't matter much if you look ridiculous.

I try not to think about tomorrow; the future doesn't exist, say the indio of the highlands, we only count on the past to draw experience and knowledge, and on the present which is just the beat of an eyelid, because in that same instant it turns into past.
