This is the first teaching of the Knights: You will erase everything you had written in the book of your life up until now: restlessness, uncertainty, lies. And in the place of all this you will write the word courage.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The Soul of the World is nourished by people's happiness. And also by unhappiness, envy, and jealousy. To realize one's Personal Legend is a person's only real obligation. All things are one.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Anyone who is in love is making love the whole time, even when they're not. When two bodies meet, it is just the cup overflowing. They can stay together for hours, even days. They begin the dance one day and finish it the next, or - such is the pleasure they experience - they may never finish it. No eleven minutes for them.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
Image
They are words that are easy enough to say and which fill vast empty spaces.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Believing that other people are always better than you-better-looking, more capable, richer, more intelligent-and that it's very dangerous to step outside your own limits, so it's best to do nothing.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Following fashion trends, however ridiculous or uncomfortable.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Change. But start slowly, because direction is more important than speed
Paulo Coelho
Image
When we're interested in something, everything around us appears to refer to it (the mystics call these phenomena signs, the sceptics coincidence, and psychologists concentrated focus, although I've yet to find out what term historians should use).
Paulo Coelho
Image
The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I fell asleep and dreamed that life was only Happiness. I woke and discovered that life was Duty. I did my Duty and discovered that life was Happiness.
Paulo Coelho
Image
All suffering goes just as it came. So it is with the glories and tragedies of the world.
Paulo Coelho
Image
People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of. It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting. And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.
Paulo Coelho
