I don't see any reason why I should look for someone who never took the trouble to love me.
Paulo Coelho
Image
really important meetings are planned by the souls long before the bodies see each other.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The more violent the storm, the quicker it passes.
Paulo Coelho
Image
As she had been walking from the ward to that room, she had felt such pure hatred that now she had no more rancor left in her heart. She had finally allowed her negative feelings to surface, feelings that had been repressed for years in her soul. She had actually FELT them, and they were no longer necessary, they could leave.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Don't waste your time with explanations: people only hear what they want to hear.
Paulo Coelho
Image
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
Image
We must struggle for our dreams, but when certain paths prove impossible, it would be best to save our energies in order to travel other roads.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When we're interested in something, everything around us appears to refer to it (the mystics call these phenomena signs, the sceptics coincidence, and psychologists concentrated focus, although I've yet to find out what term historians should use).
Paulo Coelho
Image
Love is not to be found in someone else, but in ourselves we simply awaken it. But in order to do that, we need the other person. The universe only makes sense when we have someone to share our feelings with.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When someone leaves, it's because someone else is about to arrive.
Paulo Coelho
Image
It's true life really is generous to those who pursue their destiny
Paulo Coelho
Image
A warrior balances solitude and dependence.
Paulo Coelho
Image
As I don't know about tomorrow, I never save the best for later.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Defeat ends when we launch into another battle. Failure has no end: it is a lifetime choice.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Every search begins with beginner’s luck. And every search ends with the victor’s being severely tested.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Sometimes you have to travel a long way to find what is near
Paulo Coelho
Image
The glory of the world is transitory, and we should not measure our lives by it, but by the choice we make to follow our personal legend, to believe in our utopias, and to fight for our dreams.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Death does not allow us to postpone all the things we can experience now.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I want to be someone capable of seeing the unseen faces, of seeing those who do not seek fame or glory, who silently fulfil the role life has given them. I want to be able to do this because the most important things, those that shape our existence, are precisely the ones that never show their faces.
Paulo Coelho

Don't ask permission. If it does not work, you can apologize later.
Paulo Coelho
