I'm alive. When I'm eating that's all I think about. If I'm on the march, I just concentrate on marching. If I have to fight,it will be just as good a day as any to die. If you can concentrate always on the present, you'll be a happy man. Life is the moment we are living now.
Paulo Coelho
Image

We humans have two great problems: the first is knowing when to begin the second is knowing when to stop.
Paulo Coelho
Image
But how to explain suffering because of a man? It's not explainable. With that kind of suffering, a person feels as if they're in hell, because there is no nobility, no greatness - only misery.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We always know which is the best road to follow, but we follow only the road that we have become accustomed to.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Instead of noting down things I’m unlikely to forget, I will write a poem. Even if I have never written one before and even if I never do so again, I will at least know that I once had the courage to put my feelings into words.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Give yourself freedom to try out new things Don't be so set in your ways that you can't grow.
Paulo Coelho

Our task is not to leave a record of what happened on this date for those who will inherit the Earth history will take care of that.
Paulo Coelho
Image
of all the weapons of destruction that man could invent, the most terrible-and the most powerful-was the word. Daggers and spears left traces of blood arrows could be seen at a distance. Poisons were detected in the end and avoided. But the word managed to destroy without leaving clues.

And she already has her treasure: it’s you.
