Our body remains alive, yet sooner or later our soul will receive a mortal blow. The perfect crime--for we don't know who murdered our joy, what their motives were, or where the guilty parties are to be found.
Paulo Coelho
Image
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
Image
The Lord only demands of us what is within our capabilities.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Simply having the courage to say senseless things made me euphoric. I was free, with no need to seek or to give explanations for what I was doing. This freedom lifted me to the heavens - where greater love, one that forgives everything and never allows you to feel abandoned, once again enveloped me.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Defeat exists but not suffering. A true warrior knows that when he loses a battle, he is improving the skill with which he wields a sword. He will be able to fight more skilfullly next time.
Paulo Coelho
Image
This was freedom to feel what the heart desired with no thought to the opinion of the rest... She was free, for love liberates.

Paulo Coelho
Image
Never cease doubting. When the doubts stop it is because you have stopped journeying.
Paulo Coelho
Image
What's the world's greatest lie?... It's this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what's happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Whenever we need to make a very important decision it is best to trust our instincts, because reason usually tries to remove us from our dream, saying that the time is not yet right. Reason is afraid of defeat, but intuition enjoys life and its challenges.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Wearing a scrap of colored cloth around your neck, even though it serves no useful purpose, but which answers to the name of tie.
Paulo Coelho
Image
If you really want to dream, be fully awake.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We, their hearts, become fearful just thinking of loved ones who go away forever, or of moments that could have been good but weren't, or of moments that could have been found but were forever hidden in the sands.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Don't expect your genius to be discovered do what you must do because it gives you joy. Don't expect your love to be accepted. Love because it justifies your life.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Do not ask yourself if your love is big enough, because love is neither big nor small, it is simply love.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Sometimes, we are so attached to our way of life that we turn down wonderful opportunities simply because don't know what to do with it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When the Warrior takes on a commitment, he keeps his word.
Paulo Coelho
Image
You have a personal legend to fulfil, period. It is of no matter if others support you, or criticise you, ignore or tolerate you. You are doing that because that is your destiny on this earth, and the source of any joy.
Paulo Coelho
