Image
We are here because we are made by God, we will return to God. So people who think that they are something, they are totally wrong. And this is the most beautiful thing in life, it is that we don't own anything. So, everything is ours in the sense that we have the world to explore and not things to carry, a burden to carry.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I don't regret my painful times, i bare my scars as if they were medals. I know that freedom has a high price, as high as that of slavery the only difference is that you pay with pleasure and a smile, even when that that smile dimmed by tears
Paulo Coelho

I believe it is better to live a dream rather than to simply dream it. The dream is the start of something greater, something that impels us to make daring decisions. And it's true that the person who pursues a dream takes many risks. But the person who does not runs risks that are even greater.
Paulo Coelho

I must have no fear of failure. It was my fear of failure that first kept me from attempting the Master Work.

Because I don't live in either my past or my future.I'm interested only in the present.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I learned the most important lesson of my life: that the extraordinary is not the birthright of a chosen and privileged few, but of all people, even the humblest. That is my one certainty: we are all the manifestation of the divinity of God.
