More quotes by Paulo Coelho
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
Coincidence is the language of the stars, for something to happen, so many forces have to be put into action.
Paulo Coelho
As she had been walking from the ward to that room, she had felt such pure hatred that now she had no more rancor left in her heart. She had finally allowed her negative feelings to surface, feelings that had been repressed for years in her soul. She had actually FELT them, and they were no longer necessary, they could leave.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
In a world where everyone struggles to survive whatever the cost, how could one judge those people who decide to die? No one can judge. Each person knows the extent of their own suffering or the total absence of meaning in their lives.
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
I don't know what to do. I only know that it's taken me years to understand that life was pushing me in a direction I didn't want to go in.
Paulo Coelho
My heart is afraid that it will have to suffer.
Paulo Coelho
Saying ‘No’ does not always show a lack of generosity and that saying ‘Yes’ is not always a virtue
Paulo Coelho
Past and future exist only in our memory. The present moment, though, is outside of time, it's Eternity.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes, you get no second chance and that its best to accept the gifts the world offers you.
Paulo Coelho
If you never take a risk, you will never know what changes you need to make.
Paulo Coelho
I prefer to be crazy and happy rather than normal and bitter.
Paulo Coelho
When faced by any loss, there’s no point in trying to recover what has been, it’s best to take advantage of the large space that opens up before us and fill it with something new.
Paulo Coelho
Don't fear the light within. May it ignite the Sacred Flame in your soul.
Paulo Coelho
