Eleven Minutes by Paulo Coelho

I took this book with me to Turks and Caicos to read by the beach. I had a little notebook and took 14 little notes. Here are a few:

In order to master the soul, one must also learn to master the body

She was no longer dependent on what happened in order to be happy

The greatest pleasure isn’t sex, but the passion with which it is practiced

“Good enough” is very different from “Best”

Maria, a young girl from Brazil decides love is a terrible thing after suffering her first heartache. She follows a talent scout to Switzerland, believing she will become a famous model, only to find that she is to become a night club dancer and a prostitute.
