You say they create their own reality, said Veronika, but what is reality?
Paulo Coelho

Faith is not Desire. Faith is Will. Desires are things that need to be satisfied, whereas Will is a force. Will changes the space around us.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We always have a tendency to see those things that do not exist and to be blind to the great lessons that are right there before our eyes.

Paulo Coelho
Image
Borges said there are only four stories to tell: a love story between two people, a love story between three people, the struggle for power and the voyage. All of us writers rewrite these same stories ad infinitum.
Paulo Coelho

A Warrior of Light needs love. Love and affection are part of his nature. He makes use of solitude, but is not used by it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
No one is alone during tribulations - there's always someone else thinking, rejoicing or suffering in the same way. This thought gives us strength to face the challenge that lies in front of us.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When every day seems the same, it is because we have stopped noticing the good things that appear in our lives.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Man needs what's worst in him in order to achieve what's best in him.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I believe it is better to live a dream rather than to simply dream it. The dream is the start of something greater, something that impels us to make daring decisions. And it's true that the person who pursues a dream takes many risks. But the person who does not runs risks that are even greater.
Paulo Coelho
Image
No one can learn to love by following a manual, and no one can learn to write by following a course. I'm not telling you to seek out other writers but to find people with different skills from yourself, because writing is no different from any other activity done with joy and enthusiasm.
Paulo Coelho
Image
A warrior of light needs both patience and speed. He treats each situation as if it were unique.
Paulo Coelho

In the long run what people think about shepherds and bakers becomes more important for them than their own destinies.
