From the moment we are born, people tell us that the world is like this and like that, this way, that way. It is natural that - for a certain period of time - we end up believing what we are told. But we must soon push these ideas aside and discover our own way of living reality.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The Warrior of the Light is a believer. Because he believes in miracles, miracles begin to happen. Because he is sure that his thoughts can change his life, his life begins to change. Because he is certain that he will find love, love appears.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Because true love never keeps a man from pursuing his destiny
Paulo Coelho

Let go of the idea that the path will lead you to your goal. The truth is that with each step we take, we arrive. Repeat that to yourself every morning: 'I've arrived.' That way you'll find it much easier to stay in touch with each second of your day.

Every human being has inside them something more important than him or herself - his or her Gift.
Paulo Coelho

What other people think is more important than what we feel.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I talk to my readers on social networking sites, but I never tell them what the book is about. Writing is lonely, so from time to time I talk to them on the Internet. It's like chatting at a bar without leaving your office. I talk with them about a lot of things other than my books.
Paulo Coelho

It is not necessary to move mountains in order to prove one's faith.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Without solitude, Love will not stay long by your side.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Coincidence is the language of the stars, for something to happen, so many forces have to be put into action.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Magical places are always beautiful and deserve to be contemplated ... Always stay on the bridge between the invisible and the visible.
