Additional quotes by Isabel Allende

The point was not to die, since death came anyway, but to survive, which would be a miracle.

He had only to touch me to turn my tears into sighs and my anger to desire. How accomodating love is; it forgives everything.

That was a good time in my life, in spite of having the sensation of floating on a cloud, surrounded by both lies and things left unspoken. Occasionally I thought I glimpsed the truth, but soon found myself once again lost in a forest of ambiguities.
