More quotes by Paulo Coelho
Believe that if Allah wants you to know something, someone will tell you.
Paulo Coelho
We need to forget what we think we are, so that we can really become what we are.
Paulo Coelho
we are human beings, we are born full of guilt we feel terrified when happiness becomes a real possibility.
Paulo Coelho
Nothing in the world is ever completely wrong. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.
Paulo Coelho
If there is suffering, then it's best to accept it, because it won't go away just because you pretend it's not there. If there is joy, then it's best to accept that too, even though you're afraid it might end one day.
Paulo Coelho
of all the weapons of destruction that man could invent, the most terrible-and the most powerful-was the word. Daggers and spears left traces of blood arrows could be seen at a distance. Poisons were detected in the end and avoided. But the word managed to destroy without leaving clues.
Paulo Coelho
A schizophrenic is a person who already has a natural tendency to absent himself from this world.
Paulo Coelho
No one ever loses anyone. We are all one soul that needs to continue growing and developing in order for the world to carry on and for us all to meet once again.
Paulo Coelho
Only by accepting our desires can we have an idea of who we are.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes we have only ten minutes to be with the love of our life and thousands of hours to spend thinking about them.
Paulo Coelho
There is always a right moment to stop something.
Paulo Coelho
Faith shows us that we are never alone. Transformation helps us to love the mystery.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes the Warrior feels as if he were living two lives at once.
Paulo Coelho
Without solitude, Love will not stay long by your side.
Paulo Coelho
Charisma- the divine force that manifests itself in men and women. The supernatural power we don't need to show to anyone because everyone can see it, even usually insensitive people. But it only happens when we're naked, when we die to the world and are reborn to ourselves.
Paulo Coelho
People learn, early in their lives, what is their reason for being. Maybe that's why they give up on it so early, too.
Paulo Coelho
No one knows what is going to happen in the next few minutes, and yet people still go forward, because they have trust, because they have faith.
Paulo Coelho
Love is not a habit, a commitment, or a debt. It isn't what romantic songs tell us it is - love simply is.
Paulo Coelho
Look around. And don't get close to people who make you suffer.
Paulo Coelho
Every Warrior of the Light has suffered for the most trivial of reasons.
Paulo Coelho
