Paulo Coelho
Image
To one who knocks, the door will open.
Paulo Coelho

When in doubt, just take the next small step
Paulo Coelho
Image
Everybody has to share something. This is one of the most important laws of the human condition, is the necessity to share. This is the task of the writer - but not only of a writer, of every human being - it is to share something that he or she has.
Paulo Coelho
Image
if a lie is repeated often enough, it ends up convincing everyone
Paulo Coelho
Image
Don't ask permission. If it does not work, you can apologize later.
