More quotes by Paulo Coelho
About the nature of human beings. I discovered that confronted by temptation, we will always fall. Given the right circumstances, every human being on this earth would be willing to commit evil.
Paulo Coelho
The boy and his heart had become friends, and neither was capable now of betraying the other.
Paulo Coelho
I don't regret my painful times, i bare my scars as if they were medals. I know that freedom has a high price, as high as that of slavery the only difference is that you pay with pleasure and a smile, even when that that smile dimmed by tears
Paulo Coelho
But love is much like a dam if you allow a tiny crack to form through which only a trickle of water can pass, that trickle will quickly bring down the whole structure and soon no one will be able to control the force of the current.
Paulo Coelho
The pain of yesterday is the strength of today.
Paulo Coelho
Usually the threat of death makes people a lot more aware of their lives.
Paulo Coelho
Whenever I refused to follow my fate, something very hard to bear would happen in my life.
Paulo Coelho
God, I am trying to recover my faith. Please don't abandon me in the middle of this adventure, I prayed, pushing my fears aside.
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
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
Try to be good, you'll be judged. Try to be yourself, you'll be criticized. Therefore, choose the second option. Evil uses the nice good people as puppets. It appears dressed as a poor guy, telling them that he needs help...When these people realize they have been used, it is already too late.
Paulo Coelho
On some nights, he has nowhere to sleep, on others he suffers from insomnia. That's just how it is, thinks the warrior. I was the one who chose to walk this path.
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
In my world, everything is possible and everything is relative.
Paulo Coelho
No matter how many detours and adjustments it made, the caravan moved toward the same compass point. Once obstacles were overcome, it returned to its course, sighting on a star that indicated the location of the oasis.
Paulo Coelho
Suffering comes from desire, not from pain.
Paulo Coelho
Our task is not to leave a record of what happened on this date for those who will inherit the Earth history will take care of that.
Paulo Coelho
Faith is difficult to conquer and requires daily battles if it is to be maintained.
Paulo Coelho
She didn't need to understand the meaning of life it was enough to find someone who did, and then fall asleep in his arms and sleep as a child sleeps, knowing that someone stronger than you is protecting you from all evil and all danger
Paulo Coelho
And because of our selfishness, we will be condemned to the worst torture humankind ever invented for itself: loneliness.
Paulo Coelho
