More quotes by Paulo Coelho
Close cycles. Not because of pride or arrogance, but because that no longer fits your life
Paulo Coelho
If you pay attention to the present, you can improve upon it
Paulo Coelho
There was a language in the world that everyone understood, a language the boy had used throughout the time that he was trying to improve things at the shop. It was the language of enthusiasm, of things accomplished with love and purpose, and as part of a search for something believed in and desired.
Paulo Coelho
He believes that To persevere is favorable.
Paulo Coelho
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
We always try to interpret things in accordance with what we want and not as they are.
Paulo Coelho
No one can go back, but everyone can go forward. And tommorow, when the Sun rises, all you will have to say to yourself is: I am going to think of this day as the first day of my life.
Paulo Coelho
The biggest mistake of the man is that he thinks he doesn't deserve the good and the bad things from his life.
Paulo Coelho
And, when you can't go back, you have to worry only about the best way of moving forward.
Paulo Coelho
If everyone there just lived their lives and let others do the same, God would be in every moment, in every grain of mustard, in the fragment of cloud that is there and then gone the following moment. God was there and yet people believed they still had to go on looking, because it seemed too simple to accept that life was an act of faith.
Paulo Coelho
The Superclass tries to promote its values. Ordinary people complain of divine injustice, they envy power, and it pains them to see others having fun. They don’t understand that no one is having fun, that everyone is worried and insecure, and that what the jewels, cars, and fat wallets conceal is a huge inferiority complex.
Paulo Coelho
We must have a university degree even if we never get a job in the area of knowledge we were forced to study.
Paulo Coelho
Those who never take risks can only see other people's failures.
Paulo Coelho
Nothing wrong with appearing to be a fool, if what you are doing is intelligent.
Paulo Coelho
In our obsessive wish to arrive, we often forget the most important thing, which is the journey.
Paulo Coelho
Standing facing the door in an elevator and pretending you're the only person there, no matter how crowded it is.
Paulo Coelho
The present moment, though, is outside of time, it’s Eternity. In India they use the word “karma” for lack of any better term. But it’s a concept that’s rarely given a proper explanation. It isn’t what you did in the past that will affect the present. It’s what you do in the present that will redeem the past and thereby change the future.
Paulo Coelho
the reward of our work is not what we get, but what we become
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes you have to travel a long way to find what is near
Paulo Coelho
Be careful! Never show your superiors that you are superior to them.
Paulo Coelho
