Paulo Coehlo
'No, I can't think like that. If I behave in the way people expect me
to behave, I will become their slave. It requires enormous
self-control not to succumb, because our natural tendency is to want
to please, even if the person to be pleased is us. If I do that, I
will lose not only Esther, but Marie, my work, my future, as well as
any respect I have for myself and for what I have said and written.'
Oh dear Beloved, give me strength for this is where I am.
