We are what we believe ourselves to be
Paulo Coelho
Image
The universe always helps us fight for our dreams, no matter how foolish they may be.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Because i've suffered. Because many times in my life i have tried to love with all my heart, and my love has wound up being trampled or betrayed.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I prefer to be crazy and happy rather than normal and bitter.
Paulo Coelho
Image
It's always necessary to know when a stage of one's life has ended. If you stubbornly cling to it after the need has passed, you lose the joy and meaning of the rest. And you risk being shaken to your senses by God.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Feelings do not grow old along with the body. Feelings form part of a world I don’t know, but it’s a world where there’s no time, so space, no frontiers.
Paulo Coelho
Image
People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of. It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting. And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I am going to die. But I am going to die in peace because I lived my life as intensely as I could.
Paulo Coelho

Life takes us by surprise and orders us to move toward the unknown -even when we don't want to and when we think we don't need to.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Instead of noting down things I’m unlikely to forget, I will write a poem. Even if I have never written one before and even if I never do so again, I will at least know that I once had the courage to put my feelings into words.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Whenever he saw the sea, or a fire, he fell silent, impressed by their elemental force.
Paulo Coelho
Image
By changing the way you do routine things you allow a new man to grow inside you.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Too often, we decide to follow a path that is not really our own, one that others have set for us. We forget that...in both cases we will pass through both difficult and happy moments. But when we are living our dream, the difficulties we encounter make sense.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The most powerful hallucinogen in this planet is called Love. Highly Addictive! You will see and hear things that don't exist!
Paulo Coelho
Image
You must be the person you have never had the courage to be. Gradually, you will discover that you are that person, but until you can see this clearly, you must pretend and invent.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Well, by accepting that sex is a physical manifestation of God, and that is not a sin-it is a blessing.
Paulo Coelho
Image
In the beginning there was only a small amount of injustice abroad in the world, but everyone who came afterwards added their portion, always thinking it was very small and unimportant, and look where we have ended up today.
Paulo Coelho
Image
God hides the fires of hell within paradise.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Perfect people don't drink, don't fight, don't lie, don't make mistakes and...don't exist
Paulo Coelho

The present moment, though, is outside of time, it’s Eternity. In India they use the word “karma” for lack of any better term. But it’s a concept that’s rarely given a proper explanation. It isn’t what you did in the past that will affect the present. It’s what you do in the present that will redeem the past and thereby change the future.
