More quotes by Paulo Coelho
we are human beings, we are born full of guilt we feel terrified when happiness becomes a real possibility.
Paulo Coelho
Her silence was the blank space between the words.
Paulo Coelho
Facing the difficulties, I can choose either to be a poor victim or a great adventurer.
Paulo Coelho
I'm alive. When I'm eating that's all I think about. If I'm on the march, I just concentrate on marching. If I have to fight,it will be just as good a day as any to die. If you can concentrate always on the present, you'll be a happy man. Life is the moment we are living now.
Paulo Coelho
Our body remains alive, yet sooner or later our soul will receive a mortal blow. The perfect crime--for we don't know who murdered our joy, what their motives were, or where the guilty parties are to be found.
Paulo Coelho
Past and future exist only in our memory. The present moment, though, is outside of time, it's Eternity.
Paulo Coelho
Be realistic: always wish the impossible.
Paulo Coelho
Whenever we need to make a very important decision it is best to trust our instincts, because reason usually tries to remove us from our dream, saying that the time is not yet right. Reason is afraid of defeat, but intuition enjoys life and its challenges.
Paulo Coelho
Our souls are prisoners of the terror of death, and the day is beautiful.
Paulo Coelho
Today don't beg, don't ask, just thank God in silence for all the blessings in your life.
Paulo Coelho
Well, let's distinguish religion from spirituality. I am Catholic, so religion for me is a way of having discipline and collective worship with persons who share the same mystery.
Paulo Coelho
Tears are words that need to be written.
Paulo Coelho
Don't give to anyone the power to put you down. Haters are losers pretending to be winners.
Paulo Coelho
LIVE. If you live, god will live with you. If you refuse to run his risks, he'll retreat to that distant heaven and be merely a subject for philosophical speculation.
Paulo Coelho
Our great goal in life is to love. The rest is silence.
Paulo Coelho
When you find your path, you must not be afraid. You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes. Disappointment, defeat, and despair are the tools God uses to show us the way.
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
The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes I need to be a stranger to myself. Only then my soul can show me not what I want, but what I need to see.
Paulo Coelho
What's the world's greatest lie?... It's this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate.
Paulo Coelho
