More quotes by Paulo Coelho
Don’t allow your wounds to transform you into someone you are not.
Paulo Coelho
The Good Fight is the one that we fight in the name of our dreams.
Paulo Coelho
The Superclass tries to promote its values. Ordinary people complain of divine injustice, they envy power, and it pains them to see others having fun. They don’t understand that no one is having fun, that everyone is worried and insecure, and that what the jewels, cars, and fat wallets conceal is a huge inferiority complex.
Paulo Coelho
There are two kinds of idiots - those who don't take action because they have received a threat, and those who think they are taking action because they have issued a threat.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes it is impossible to stop the river of life.
Paulo Coelho
Life always waits for some crisis to occur before revealing itself at its most brilliant.
Paulo Coelho
Today I am a woman torn between the terror that everything might change and the equal terror that everything might carry on exactly the same for the rest of my days.
Paulo Coelho
A wise person is full of questions. A dull person is full of answers.
Paulo Coelho
Each human being was given two qualities: power and the gift. Power directs us towards our destiny the gift obliges us to share with others what is best in us.
Paulo Coelho
Only three things can change our lives dreams, suffering and love
Paulo Coelho
If his decision is correct, he will win the battle, even if it lasts longer than expected. If his decision is wrong, he will be defeated and he will have to start all over again-only this time with more wisdom. But once he has started, a warrior of the light perseveres until the end.
Paulo Coelho
Defeat exists but not suffering. A true warrior knows that when he loses a battle, he is improving the skill with which he wields a sword. He will be able to fight more skilfullly next time.
Paulo Coelho
One way or another, I have wound up destroying what I've loved. I've seen my dreams fall apart just when I seemed to achieve them. I always thought tat was just the way life was. My life anf everybody else's.
Paulo Coelho
I've noticed that loneliness gets stronger when we try to face it down, but gets weaker when we simply ignore it.
Paulo Coelho
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
To one who knocks, the door will open.
Paulo Coelho
How can we be so arrogant? The planet is, was, and always will be stronger than us. We can't destroy it if we overstep the mark, the planet will simply erase us from its surface and carry on existing. Why don't they start talking about not letting the planet destroy us?
Paulo Coelho
Love is an act of faith, not an exchange. Contradictions are what make love grow. Conflicts are what allow love to remain by our side.
Paulo Coelho
The River adapts itself to whatever route prove possible, but the river never forgets its one objective: the sea. So fragile at its source, it gradually gathers the strength of the other rivers in encounters. And, after a certain point, its power is absolute.
Paulo Coelho
The soil needs the seed and the seed needs the soil. The one only has meaning with the other. It is the same thing with human beings. When male knowledge joins with female transformation, then the great magical union is created, and its name is wisdom. Wisdom means both to know and to transform.
Paulo Coelho
