More quotes by Paulo Coelho
No one can posses an afternoon of rain beating against the window, or the serenity of a sleeping child, or the magical moment when the waves break on the rocks. No one can posses the beautiful things of this Earth, but we can know them and love them. It is through such moments that God reveals himself to mankind.
Paulo Coelho
Love cannot be held prisoner because it is a river and will overflow its banks.
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
People are afraid to pursue their most important dreams, because they feel that they don't deserve them, or that they'll be unable to achieve them.
Paulo Coelho
All religions lead to the same God, and all deserve the same respect.
Paulo Coelho
When two people fall in love, past and future disappear.
Paulo Coelho
When faced with a loss, it is no use trying to recover what has gone. On the other hand, a great space has been opened up in your life - there it lies, empty, waiting to be filled with something new. At the moment of one's loss, contradictory as this might seem, one is being given a large slice of freedom.
Paulo Coelho
If you are never alone, you cannot know yourself.
Paulo Coelho
How is it possible for the beauty that was there only minutes before to vanish so quickly?
Paulo Coelho
Remember your dreams and fight for them. You must know what you want from life. There is just one thing that makes your dream become impossible: the fear of failure.
Paulo Coelho
You drown not by falling into a river, but by staying submerged in it.
Paulo Coelho
I understand that everything is connected, that all roads meet, and that all rivers flow into the same sea.
Paulo Coelho
Despising anything that was easy to achieve because if no sacrifice was involved, it obviously isn't worth having.
Paulo Coelho
Every second of the search is an encounter with God. When I have been truly searching for my treasure, every day has been luminous...I've discovered things along the way that I never would have seen had I not had the courage to try things that seemed impossible for a shepherd to achieve.
Paulo Coelho
Fear reaches only to the point where the unavoidable begins from there on, it loses its meaning. And all we have left is the hope that we are making the right decision.
Paulo Coelho
To engage in any activity, the warrior needs to know what to expect, how to achieve the objective and whether or not he is capable of carrying out the proposed task.
Paulo Coelho
We have lost contact with reality, the simplicity of life.
Paulo Coelho
I understand once again that the greatness of God always reveals itself in the simple things.
Paulo Coelho
As he mused about these things, he realized that he had to choose between thinking of himself as the poor victim of a thief and as an adventurer in quest of his treasure.
Paulo Coelho
When we venture in that unfamiliar sea, we trust blindly in those who guide us, believing that they know more than we do.
Paulo Coelho
