Our body remains alive, yet sooner or later our soul will receive a mortal blow. The perfect crime--for we don't know who murdered our joy, what their motives were, or where the guilty parties are to be found.

More quotes by Paulo Coelho
I want to be a writer, not an engineer who writes books.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
The search for happiness is purely personal and not a model we can give to others.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
I don't know if the books are making the world a much better place. I don't write with that objective. What I know is that I see my readers creating a critical mass so we can at least understand this world in a different way.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
Never abandon your dreams. Follow the signs.
Paulo Coelho
You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it's better to listen to what it has to say.
Paulo Coelho
Love is an unconditional commitment to an imperfect person. To love somebody isn`t just a strong feeling. It is a decision, a judgment, and a promise.
Paulo Coelho
Be realistic: always wish the impossible.
Paulo Coelho
People always arrive promptly at the places where they are expected.
Paulo Coelho
When faced by any loss, there’s no point in trying to recover what has been, it’s best to take advantage of the large space that opens up before us and fill it with something new.
Paulo Coelho
In the southern hemisphere, covering the Christmas tree with fake snow even though winter has nothing to do with the birth of Christ.
Paulo Coelho
We hereby declare the end to the wall dividing the sacred from the profane: from now on, all is sacred.
Paulo Coelho
