An enemy always represents a weakness. This might be fear of physical pain, but it could also be a premature sense of victory or the desire to abandon the fight because it is no longer worthwhile.

More quotes by Paulo Coelho
A man's dignity isn't measured by the people he has around him when he's at the peak of his success, but by his ability not to forget those who helped him when his need was greatest.
Paulo Coelho
It is important never to relax, however far you have come.
Paulo Coelho
Everything depends on which path you take.
Paulo Coelho
The warrior knows that the most important words in all languages are the small words. Yes. Love. God. They are words that are easy enough to say and which fill vast empty spaces.
Paulo Coelho
The day will come when those knocking at the door will see it open those who ask will receive those who weep will be consoled.
Paulo Coelho
Usually the threat of death makes people a lot more aware of their lives.
Paulo Coelho
Time neither moves nor is stationary. Time changes.
Paulo Coelho
The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes our power resides not in what we do, but in what we don't do.
Paulo Coelho
A brush with death always helps us to live our lives better.
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
Stop turning on your emotional television to watch the same program over & over again, the one that shows how much you suffered from a certain loss: that is only poisoning you, nothing else.
Paulo Coelho
I don't regret the painful times I bare my scars as if they were medals.
Paulo Coelho
Many people in this world are merely playing a role, unaware that there is an Invisible Hand guiding them.
Paulo Coelho
We must get rid of the idea of fulfilling what people expect us to do, and start to do what we expect from our lives.
Paulo Coelho
You are protected. But if you don't take risks, God will retreat and become only a subject of philosophical speculation.
Paulo Coelho
A warrior of the light...never confuses tension with anxiety.
Paulo Coelho
Try to be good, you'll be judged. Try to be yourself, you'll be criticized. Therefore, choose the second option. Evil uses the nice good people as puppets. It appears dressed as a poor guy, telling them that he needs help...When these people realize they have been used, it is already too late.
Paulo Coelho
If you want to achieve your objectives, you have to be prepared for a daily dose of pain or discomfort. At first, it's unpleasant and demotivating, but in time you come to realise that it's part of the process of feeling good, and the moment arrives when, if you don't feel pain, you have a sense that the exercises aren't having the desired effect.
Paulo Coelho
I love you', though, were three words she had often heard during her twenty-two years, and it seemed to her that they were now completely devoid of meaning, because they had never turned into anything serious or deep, never translated into a lasting relationship.
Paulo Coelho
