More quotes by Paulo Coelho

Image
We are told from childhood onward that everything we want to do is impossible. We grow up with this idea, and as the years accumulate, so too do the layers of prejudice, fear and guilt. There comes a time when our personal calling is so deeply buried in our soul as to be invisible. But know that it's still there.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When I had all the answers, the questions changed.
Paulo Coelho
Image
You must be the person you have never had the courage to be. Gradually, you will discover that you are that person, but until you can see this clearly, you must pretend and invent.
Paulo Coelho
Image
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
Image
When we renounce our dreams, we find peace and enjoy a brief period of tranquillity, but the dead dreams begin to rot inside us and to infect the whole atmosphere in which we live. What we hoped to avoid in the Fight -disappointment and defeat- become the sole legacy of our cowardice.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
Image
He had not a cent in his pocket, but he had faith. He had decided, the night before, that he would be as much an adventurer as the ones he had admired in books.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Instead of noting down things I’m unlikely to forget, I will write a poem. Even if I have never written one before and even if I never do so again, I will at least know that I once had the courage to put my feelings into words.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Don't waste your time with explanations: people only hear what they want to hear.
Paulo Coelho
Image
If good things are coming, they will be a pleasant surprise, said the seer. If bad things are, and you know in advance, you will suffer greatly before they even occur.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Never stop dreaming and follow the omens.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Laugh at your worries and insecurities. View your anxieties with humor. It will be difficult at first, but you'll gradually get used to it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Beware of making a woman cry. God is counting her tears.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We will always meet rivals in everything we do, but the most dangerous are those we believe to be our friends.
Paulo Coelho
Image
People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of.
Paulo Coelho

Those who never take risks can only see other people's failures.
