More quotes by 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
But he keeps his heart free of any feelings of hatred.
Paulo Coelho
we are human beings, we are born full of guilt we feel terrified when happiness becomes a real possibility.
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

Paulo Coelho
Never laughing too loudly in a restaurant no matter how good the joke.

Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them.
Paulo Coelho
Come on, let's go. Crazy people do crazy things.
Paulo Coelho
His way isn't the same as mine, nor mine as his. But we're both in search of our destinies, and I respect him for that.
Paulo Coelho
For a writer you have to be interested in different cultures, different backgrounds. You are not there to write only about your village. You're there to show a bit of your village, but also to understand other villages.
Paulo Coelho
Use fear as an engine, not as a brake.
Paulo Coelho
signs are an extremely personal language that we develop throughout our lives, by trial and error, until we begin to understand that God is guiding us.
Paulo Coelho
I think that we are starting to get much more conscious about, you know, the importance of the spiritual path, and we are fulfilling it by paying attention to ourselves.
Paulo Coelho
Love means sharing the world with someone else.
