Paulo Coelho
I can control my destiny, but not my fate. Destiny means there are opportunities to turn right or left, but fate is a one-way street. I believe we all have the choice as to whether we fulfil our destiny, but our fate is sealed.
Paulo Coelho
He uses common sense to judge not the intentions of an action but its consequences.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
The warrior knows that the most important words in all languages are the small words. Yes. Love. God. They are words that are easy enough to say and which fill vast empty spaces.
Paulo Coelho
I cry very easily. It can be a movie, a phone conversation, a sunset - tears are words waiting to be written.
Paulo Coelho
One of many ways to be useful is to inspire people to forget some rules imposed by society. IMPORTANT rules are dictated by our hearts.
Paulo Coelho
May we understand that fear of failure is worse than failure itself
Paulo Coelho
Few take up the burden of their own victory most give up their dreams when these become impossible.
Paulo Coelho
Why is patience so important? Because it makes us pay attention.
Paulo Coelho
People are afraid to pursue their most important dreams, because they feel that they don't deserve them, or that they'll be unable to achieve them.
Paulo Coelho
The world is divided into those who understand me and those who don’t. In the case of the latter, I simply leave them to torment themselves trying to gain my sympathy.
Paulo Coelho
