Life has many ways of testing a person's will, either by having nothing happen at all or by having everything happen all at once.

More quotes by Paulo Coelho
The major religions, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, they deny somehow that God has a feminine face. However, if you go to the holy texts, you see there is this feminine presence.
Paulo Coelho
A Warrior often loses heart.
Paulo Coelho
she considered the possibility of telling her about everything that was happening, but then she changed her mind people never learn anything by being told they have to find out for themselves.
Paulo Coelho
Live to please the others, and everyone will love you, except yourself.
Paulo Coelho
When you travel you experience, in a very practical way, the act of rebirth. You confront completely new situations, the day passes more slowly, and on most journeys you don't even understand the language the people speak....You begin to be more accessible to others, because they may be able to help you in difficult situations.
Paulo Coelho
I can speak to my soul only when the two of us are off exploring deserts or cities or mountains or roads.
Paulo Coelho
The journey towards the top of the mountain is always longer than you think. Don't fool yourself: the moment will come where what seemed to be close to you is in fact still very far away.
Paulo Coelho
Freedom is not the absence of commitments, but the ability to choose - and commit myself to - what is best for me.
Paulo Coelho
I will be capable of loving, regardless of whether I am loved in return, Of giving, when I have nothing, Of working happily, even in the midst of difficulties, Of holding out my hand, even when utterly alone and abandoned, Of drying my tears, even while I weep, Of believing, even when no one believes in me.
Paulo Coelho
The light of love flows out of my soul, but it can go nowhere because it's blocked by pain. I could inhale and exhale every morning for the rest of my life, but that wouldn't solve anything.
Paulo Coelho
Don't say maybe if you want to say no.
Paulo Coelho
Before a new chapter is begun, the old one has to be finished: tell yourself that what has passed will never come back. Remember that there was a time when you could live without that thing or that person - nothing is irreplaceable, a habit is not a need.
Paulo Coelho
If his decision is correct, he will win the battle, even if it lasts longer than expected. If his decision is wrong, he will be defeated and he will have to start all over again-only this time with more wisdom. But once he has started, a warrior of the light perseveres until the end.
Paulo Coelho
When two people fall in love, past and future disappear.
Paulo Coelho
I learned that the search for God is a Dark Night, that Faith is a Dark Night. And that’s hardly a surprise really, because for us each day is a dark night. None of us knows what might happen even the next minute, and yet still we go forward. Because we trust. Because we have Faith.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes our power resides not in what we do, but in what we don't do.
Paulo Coelho
Writers are lampposts and critics are dogs. Ask lampposts what they think about dogs. Does the dog hurt the lamppost?
Paulo Coelho
Heaven and Earth are meeting in a storm that, when it's over, will leave the air purer and the leaves fertile, but before that happens, houses will be destroyed, centuries- old trees will topple, paradises will be flooded.
Paulo Coelho
We all have other halves, and when they're feeling bad, we get a little piece of the pain
Paulo Coelho
Never cease doubting. When the doubts stop it is because you have stopped journeying.
Paulo Coelho
