Paulo Coelho
Image
Because when everyone dreams, but only a few realize their dreams, that makes cowards of us all.
Paulo Coelho

We are our own greatest surprise.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Closing cycles. Not because of pride, incapacity or arrogance, but simply because that no longer fits your life. Shut the door, change the record, clean the house, shake off the dust. Stop being who you were, and change into who you are.
Paulo Coelho
Image
If only we could be enlightened enough to be able to listen in the silence.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Love is beyond time or rather love is both time and space but all focused on one single constantly evolving point-the Aleph.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We assume, falsely, that how we feel now is how we will feel in the future
Paulo Coelho
Image
We need to forget what we think we are, so that we can really become what we are.
Paulo Coelho
Image
How does light enter a person? Through the open door of love.
Paulo Coelho
