More quotes by Paulo Coelho

Image
If you are never alone, you cannot know yourself.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Brazil is my way to see the world. Being born in that country means: you don't have a wall separating the physical reality from the magical reality.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Walk firmly and with joy, without being afraid of stumbling. All your movements are being watched by your allies that will help you when necessary.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Let go of the idea that the path will lead you to your goal. The truth is that with each step we take, we arrive. Repeat that to yourself every morning: 'I've arrived.' That way you'll find it much easier to stay in touch with each second of your day.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I made some mistakes, but I wasn’t a coward. I lived my life and did what I had to do.
Paulo Coelho
Image
She [the Virgin Mary] was normal. She had already had other children. The Bible tells us that Jesus had two brothers. Virginity, as it relates to Jesus, is based on a different thing: Mary initiated a new generation of grace. A new era began. She is the cosmic bride, Earth, which opens to the heavens and allows itself to be fertilized.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Be like the fountain that overflows, not like the cistern that merely contains.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Love is a complicated path, and that path can lead us up to heaven or hurl us down into hell.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We all harbour a great sadness in our soul
Paulo Coelho
Image
Then she opened her eyes, Veronika did not think 'this must be heaven'. Heaven would never use a fluorescent tube to light a room, and the pain - which started a fraction of a second later - was typical of the Earth. Ah, that Earth pain - unique, unmistakable.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Life always waits for some crisis to occur before revealing itself at its most brilliant.
Paulo Coelho
Image
That is why he is a Warrior of the Light, because he has been through all this and yet has never lost hope of being better than he is.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We must marry, have children, reproduce the species.
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
He also knows the power of word.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Life can seem short or life can seem long, depending on how you live it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Desire is not what you see, but what you imagine.
Paulo Coelho
Image
No one owns anything. Anyone who has lost something they thought was theirs forever finally comes to realize that nothing really belongs to them. And if nothing belongs to me, then there's no point wasting my time looking after things that aren't mine.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I don't regret the painful times I bare my scars as if they were medals.
Paulo Coelho
Image
True love allows each person to follow his or her own path, aware that doing so can never drive them apart.
Paulo Coelho
