Quote

And they will return one day knowing the miracle of the heavens and of all the world. God knew what he was doing when he drew their attention to the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. If he hadn’t wanted them to eat it, he would never have mentioned it.

No life is complete without a touch of madness.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We must never stop dreaming. Dreams provide nourishment for the soul, just as a meal does for the body. Many times in our lives we see our dreams shattered and our desires frustrated, but we have to continue dreaming. If we don't, our soul dies, and agape cannot reach it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I have won important things for myself, but I'm going to destroy them, because I tell myself they have lost their meaning. I know that is not true. I know they are important, and that if I destroy them, I'll be destroying myself, as well.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho

Omens are a language, it's the alphabet we develop to speak to the world's soul, or the universe's, or God's, whatever name you want to give it. Like an alphabet, it is individual, you only learn it by making mistakes, and that keeps you from globalizing the spiritual quest.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The glory of the world is transitory, and we should not measure our lives by it, but by the choice we make to follow our personal legend, to believe in our utopias, and to fight for our dreams.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Believing absolutely everything that appears in print.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Wearing a scrap of colored cloth around your neck, even though it serves no useful purpose, but which answers to the name of tie.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I understand that everything is connected, that all roads meet, and that all rivers flow into the same sea.

Setting out rules for waging war (the Geneva Convention).
Paulo Coelho

With love, there are no rules. The heart decides and what it decides is all that really matters.
Paulo Coelho
