Love is the force that brings us back together, in order to condense the experience dispersed in many lives and many parts of the world.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Every new book is a challenge. I could, of course, have stopped many years ago if it was only for money. But no, it is about building bridges among cultures, different cultures... When you want someone to understand something that is not forcefully in your culture, you use stories.

When we renounce our dreams, we find peace and enjoy a brief period of tranquillity, but the dead dreams begin to rot inside us and to infect the whole atmosphere in which we live. What we hoped to avoid in the Fight -disappointment and defeat- become the sole legacy of our cowardice.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Most experiences provoke a transformation in you. So, when you live something, live it fully because you never know when this is going to happen again and not only that, if it even happens again, it will not have the same impact.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I was once more in a time which the things around me were changing and that is how I wanted it to be for the rest of my days.
Paulo Coelho
Image
You should treat a muse like a fairy.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
Image
Each person is different and each one will reach God by his or her own path.
Paulo Coelho
Image
If his decision is correct, he will win the battle, even if it lasts longer than expected. If his decision is wrong, he will be defeated and he will have to start all over again-only this time with more wisdom. But once he has started, a warrior of the light perseveres until the end.
Paulo Coelho
Image
All men are different. And should do everything possible to continue to be so.
Paulo Coelho
