I only invoked what you already knew.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Accumulating love brings luck, accumulating hatred brings calamity.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When you must choose a new path, do not bring old experiences with you. Those who strike out afresh, but who attempt to retain a little of the old life, end up torn apart by their own memories.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Everybody has to share something. This is one of the most important laws of the human condition, is the necessity to share. This is the task of the writer - but not only of a writer, of every human being - it is to share something that he or she has.
Paulo Coelho

It is not the life that matters, but the journey.
Paulo Coelho

When you are moving toward an objective, said Petrus, it is very important to pay attention to the road. It is the road that teaches us the best way to get there, and the road enriches us as we walk its length.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The parents always insisted on telling their child that their secret friends didn't exist - perhaps because they had forgotten that they too had spoken to their angel at one time. Or, who knows, perhaps they thought they lived in a world where there was no longer any place for angels.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We, their hearts, become fearful just thinking of loved ones who go away forever, or of moments that could have been good but weren't, or of moments that could have been found but were forever hidden in the sands.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Each human being has been granted a virtue: the capacity to choose. For he who does not use this virtue, it becomes a curse - and others will always choose for him.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Working from nine till five every day at something that gives you no pleasure just so that, after thirty years, you can retire.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Beware of anyone who tries to please you all the time.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Our true friends are those who are with us when the good things happen. They cheer us on and are pleased by our triumphs. False friends only appear at difficult times, with their sad, supportive faces, when, in fact, our suffering is serving to console them for their miserable lives.
Paulo Coelho
Image
There is an afterlife. I am convinced of this.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Don't say maybe if you want to say no.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Don't fear the light within. May it ignite the Sacred Flame in your soul.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Everything that happens once can never happen again. But everything that happens twice will surely happen a third time.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Love cannot exist in peace, it will always come accompanied by agonies, ecstasies, intense joys and profound sadnesses.
Paulo Coelho
