More quotes by Paulo Coelho
Treasure is uncovered by the force of flowing water, and it is buried by the same currents.
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.
Paulo Coelho
When we are high up, everything looks very small. Our glories and our sadnesses cease to be important. We have left whatever we won or lost down below. From the top of a mountain you can see how large the world is and how wide the horizon.
Paulo Coelho
We learn what we need, Not what we'd want to
Paulo Coelho
There is only one way to learn... It's through action.
Paulo Coelho
Since the dawn of time man understands that suffering, faced with no fear, is his passport to freedom.
Paulo Coelho
And so I am this pilgrim - if I can somehow answer your question - who's constantly amazed by this journey. Who is learning a new thing every single day. But who's not accumulating knowledge, because then it becomes a very heavy burden in your back. I am this person who is proud to be a pilgrim, and who's trying to honor his journey.
Paulo Coelho
Try to live with the same intensity as a child. He doesn't ask for explanations he dives into each day as if it were a new adventure and, at night, sleeps tired and happy.
Paulo Coelho
This may sound a little bit idealistic, but when I go to my blog, my Facebook page, my Twitter account, I talk to different people from all over the world, and you see how it's easy to establish a dialogue.
Paulo Coelho
Hurry up: your dreams are waiting for you, but they will not wait forever
Paulo Coelho
To dream is not enough, you have to fulfill your dream.
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
Love appears and says: You think you're heading towards a specific point, but the whole justification for the goal's existence lies in your love for it. Rest a little,but as soon as you can, get up and carry on. Because ever since your goal found out that you were traveling toward it, it has been running to meet you.
Paulo Coelho
The great problem with poisoning by Bitterness was that the passions - hatred, love, despair, enthusiasm, curiosity - also ceased to manifest themselves. After a while, the embittered person felt no desire at all. They lacked the will either to live or to die, that was the problem.
Paulo Coelho
It is part of the human nature always to judge others very severely and,when the wind turns against us,always to find an excuse for our own misdeeds,or to blame someone else for our mistakes.
Paulo Coelho
Time neither moves nor is stationary. Time changes.
Paulo Coelho
Well, let's distinguish religion from spirituality. I am Catholic, so religion for me is a way of having discipline and collective worship with persons who share the same mystery.
Paulo Coelho
That's how love got lost ... when we started laying down rules for when love should or shouldn't appear.
Paulo Coelho
The two hardest tests on the spiritual road are the patience to wait for the right moment and the courage not to be disappointed with what we encounter.
Paulo Coelho
Love is an act of faith in another person, not an act of surrender.
Paulo Coelho
