More quotes by Paulo Coelho
I am love, I am music, she thinks. Let’s dance.
Paulo Coelho
Hell is when we look back during that fraction of a second and know that we wasted an opportunity to dignify the miracle of life. Paradise is being able to say at that moment: “I made some mistakes, but I wasn’t a coward. I lived my life and did what I had to do.
Paulo Coelho
The best way to serve God is by going in search of your own dreams. Only the happy can spread happiness.
Paulo Coelho
Finding one important thing in your life doesn’t mean you have to give up all the other important things.
Paulo Coelho
No one can desire the love of God without first knowing human love.
Paulo Coelho
I have seen many storms in my life. Most storms have caught me by surprise, so I had to learn very quickly to look further and understand that I am not capable of controlling the weather, to exercise the art of patience and to respect the fury of nature.
Paulo Coelho
What I can say is that all my characters are searching for their souls, because they are my mirrors. I'm someone who is constantly trying to understand my place in the world, and literature is the best way that I found in order to see myself.
Paulo Coelho
The wise men understood that this natural world is only an image and a copy of paradise. The existence of this world is simply a guarantee that there exists a world that is perfect. God created the world so that, through its visible objects, men could understand his spiritual teachings and the marvels of his wisdom.
Paulo Coelho
There is always a right moment to stop something.
Paulo Coelho
The Martyr finds her way to self-knowledge through pain, suffering, and surrender.
Paulo Coelho
Anyone who is in love is making love the whole time, even when they're not. When two bodies meet, it is just the cup overflowing. They can stay together for hours, even days. They begin the dance one day and finish it the next, or - such is the pleasure they experience - they may never finish it. No eleven minutes for them.
Paulo Coelho
We humans have two great problems: the first is knowing when to begin the second is knowing when to stop.
Paulo Coelho
You can only learn when you teach.
Paulo Coelho
Don't ask permission. If it does not work, you can apologize later.
Paulo Coelho
So for the question I go to the mystery of it and say I don't know. I only know that I am alive and there is something that manifests in my life, that it is God and one day I am going to understand my life, probably in the day that I die, or afterwards. But I try to find good questions and not good answers.
Paulo Coelho
Don't listen to the malicious comments of those friends who, never taking any risks themselves, can only see other people's failures.
Paulo Coelho
There are moments when troubles enter our lives and we can do nothing to avoid them. But they are there for a reason. Only when we have overcome them will we understand why they were there.
Paulo Coelho
The River adapts itself to whatever route prove possible, but the river never forgets its one objective: the sea. So fragile at its source, it gradually gathers the strength of the other rivers in encounters. And, after a certain point, its power is absolute.
Paulo Coelho
I needed to choose between the one thing that really filled m thoughts-my love for that woman-and losing my freedom and all the choices that the future promised me. To be honest, the decision was easy. -Lukas Jessen-Petersen
Paulo Coelho
All the world's roads lead to the heart of the Warrior.
