More quotes by Paulo Coelho
If we don't face our fears, our fears will chase us forever.
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.
Paulo Coelho
The Martyr finds her way to self-knowledge through pain, suffering, and surrender.
Paulo Coelho
As he mused about these things, he realized that he had to choose between thinking of himself as the poor victim of a thief and as an adventurer in quest of his treasure.
Paulo Coelho
Defeat ends when we launch into another battle. Failure has no end: it is a lifetime choice.
Paulo Coelho
What people regard as vanity—leaving great works, having children, acting in such a way as to prevent one's name from being forgotten—I regard as the highest expression of human dignity.
Paulo Coelho
It’s not always enough to be forgiven by someone, in most cases we have to forgive ourselves first.
Paulo Coelho
Don't think about what you've left behind. If what one finds is made of pure matter, it will never spoil. And one can always come back. If what you had found was only a moment of light, like the explosion of a star, you would find nothing on your return.
Paulo Coelho
Everything which is done in the present, affects the future by consequence, and the past by redemption.
Paulo Coelho
Words are tears that have been written down. Tears are words that need to be shed. Without them, joy loses all its brilliance and sadness has no end.
Paulo Coelho
I have seen many storms in my life. Most storms have caught me by surprise, so I had to learn very quickly to look further and understand that I am not capable of controlling the weather, to exercise the art of patience and to respect the fury of nature.
Paulo Coelho
The only way to save our dreams is by being generous with ourselves.
Paulo Coelho
One can abandon one's personal legend for a time, as long as one does not forget about it entirely and returns to it as soon as possible.
Paulo Coelho
... but the greatest wisdom is blinded by the glare of vanity.
Paulo Coelho
It's only those who are persistent and willing to study things deeply, who achieve the master work.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes life is very mean: a person can spend days, weeks, months and years without feeling new. Then, when a door opens - a positive avalanche pours in. One moment, you have nothing, the next, you have more than you can cope with.
Paulo Coelho
If I had a choice, if I had understood earlier that the reason my days were all the same was because I wanted them like that, perhaps.
Paulo Coelho
God is the same, even though He has a thousand names it is up to us to select a name for Him.
Paulo Coelho
Things pass, and the best we can do is to let them really go away
Paulo Coelho
It's important though to distinguish between religion and spirituality.
Paulo Coelho
