More quotes by Paulo Coelho
When we are living our dream, the difficulties we encounter make sense.
Paulo Coelho
The cup of suffering is not the same size for everyone.
Paulo Coelho
What is a teacher? I'll tell you: it isn't someone who teaches something, but someone who inspires the student to give of her best in order to discover what she already knows.
Paulo Coelho
Charisma- the divine force that manifests itself in men and women. The supernatural power we don't need to show to anyone because everyone can see it, even usually insensitive people. But it only happens when we're naked, when we die to the world and are reborn to ourselves.
Paulo Coelho
We have to take advantage when luck is on our side, and do as much to help it as it's doing to help us.
Paulo Coelho
But when he thought to complain about the burden of its weight, he remembered that, because he had the jacket, he had withstood the cold of the dawn. We have to be prepared for change, he thought, and he was grateful for the jacket's weight and warmth. The jacket had a purpose, and so did the boy.
Paulo Coelho
I could have.What does this phrase mean? At any given moment in our lives, there are certain things that could have heppened but, didn't. The magic moments go unrecognized, and then suddenly, the hand of destiny changes everything.
Paulo Coelho
I free myself from hatred through forgiveness and love.
Paulo Coelho
Oddly enough I never used to suffer from depression on cold, gray, cloudy days like this. I feel as if nature is in harmony with me, that it reflected my soul.
Paulo Coelho
I think it is a problem of our society that we don't enjoy (ourselves.) We have these values, like, you have to be rich, you have to get a diploma, you have to work hard, otherwise you are useless, you are nothing but a pariah. And the book asks, 'Is it true? This is what my mom told me, but is it true?
Paulo Coelho
Blaming the government for all the bad things that happen.
Paulo Coelho
She didn't need to understand the meaning of life it was enough to find someone who did, and then fall asleep in his arms and sleep as a child sleeps, knowing that someone stronger than you is protecting you from all evil and all danger
Paulo Coelho
She wants to drink that man too, and then she can forget forever the cheap wine that you gulp down and that makes you feel drunk, but always leaves you with a headache and an empty space in your soul.
Paulo Coelho
Do not forget: seek to win all your battles, including those you fight against yourself. Do not fear the scars. Do not be afraid of victory.
Paulo Coelho
Anyone who has lost something they thought was theirs forever finally comes to realise that nothing really belongs to them.
Paulo Coelho
All women have a perception much more developed than men. So all women somehow, being repressed for so many millennia, they ended up by developing this sixth sense and contemplation and love. And this is something that we have a hard time to accept as part of our society.
Paulo Coelho
He knows that he must act, but he must allow room for the Universe to act too.
Paulo Coelho
God judges a tree by its fruits and not by its roots.
Paulo Coelho
Sometimes you have to travel a long way to find what is near
Paulo Coelho
Omens are a language, it's the alphabet we develop to speak to the world's soul, or the universe's, or God's, whatever name you want to give it. Like an alphabet, it is individual, you only learn it by making mistakes, and that keeps you from globalizing the spiritual quest.
Paulo Coelho
