More quotes by Paulo Coelho
The world lies in the hands of those that have the courage to dream and who take the risk of living out their dreams - each according to his or her own talent.
Paulo Coelho
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.
Paulo Coelho
Love with no boundaries. Your future depends on your capacity to love.
Paulo Coelho
We, their hearts, become fearful just thinking of loved ones who go away forever, or of moments that could have been good but weren't, or of moments that could have been found but were forever hidden in the sands.
Paulo Coelho
The alchemists spent years in their laboratories, observing the fire that purified the metals. They spent so much time close to the fire that gradually they gave up the vanities of the world. They discovered that the purification of the metals had led to a purification of themselves.
Paulo Coelho
Choose the mountain you want to climb: don't pay attention to what other people say, such as that one's more beautiful or this one's easier. You'll be spending lots of energy and enthusiasm to reach your objective, so you're the only one responsible and you should be sure of what you're doing.
Paulo Coelho
To engage in any activity, the warrior needs to know what to expect, how to achieve the objective and whether or not he is capable of carrying out the proposed task.
Paulo Coelho
To travel is the experience of ceasing to be the person you are trying to be, and becoming the person you really are.
Paulo Coelho
Difficulty is the name of an ancient tool that was created purely to help us define who we are.
Paulo Coelho
Whoever wishes to go down a long path, must learn that the first lesson is to overcome early disappointments.
Paulo Coelho
I write from my soul. This is the reason that critics don't hurt me, because it is me.
Paulo Coelho
My heart might be bruised, but it will recover and become capable of seeing beauty of life once more. It's happened before, it will happen again, I'm sure. When someone leaves, it's because someone else is about to arrive--I'll find love again.
Paulo Coelho
signs are an extremely personal language that we develop throughout our lives, by trial and error, until we begin to understand that God is guiding us.
Paulo Coelho
Past and future exist only in our memory. The present moment, though, is outside of time, it's Eternity.
Paulo Coelho
The Warrior is terrified when making important decisions.
Paulo Coelho
He is also wary of people who think they know the path.
Paulo Coelho
We humans have two great problems: the first is knowing when to begin the second is knowing when to stop.
Paulo Coelho
Man struggles to survive, not to succumb
Paulo Coelho
A Warrior knows that the ends do not justify the means. Because there are no ends, there are only means.
Paulo Coelho
Have courage, be capable of loving.... Be happy in love. Be joyful in victory. Follow the dictates of your heart.
Paulo Coelho
