I am not, I have discovered, my computers master: it has a life of its own.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Faith is not Desire. Faith is Will. Desires are things that need to be satisfied, whereas Will is a force. Will changes the space around us.
Paulo Coelho

The pain barrier was not a barrier for her she could go beyond it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Walking helps me a lot to feel alive, and I do this every single day, my wife and I. We have long conversations about nature, and we also walk silently, just contemplating.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I will never be yours, and you will never be mine nevertheless, I can honestly say: I love you, I love you, I love you.
Paulo Coelho
Image
But now I knew that true love was above all that and that it would be better to die than to fail to love.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Negative desires can cause no evil if you do not allow yourself to be seduced by them.
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
Image
Evil had to manifest itself and fulfill its role, so that ultimately Good could prevail. [...] Evil needs to manifest itself, for them to understand the value of Good.
Paulo Coelho
Image
There is nothing worse than the feeling that no one cares whether we exists or not, that no one is interested in what we have to say about life, and that the world can continue turning without our awkward presence
