Veronika Decides to Die Quote

People are very reluctant to talk about their own lives, but generous when it comes to talking about others - Paulo Coelho
At its core, this quote points to a fundamental human contradiction: we protect our own inner world fiercely while feeling completely free to analyze and discuss the outer worlds of everyone else.

Veronika Decides to Die Quote

Love is not to be found in someone else, but in ourselves; we simply awaken it. But in order to do that, we need the other person - Paulo Coelho
The core message is that love isn't an external resource you mine from others; it's an internal capacity you cultivate. Other people are just the spark.
