Paulo Coelho
To love is to lose control.
Paulo Coelho
My heart might be bruised, but it will recover and become capable of seeing beauty of life once more. It's happened before, it will happen again, I'm sure. When someone leaves, it's because someone else is about to arrive--I'll find love again.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
Each human being has his or her own sexual identity and should be able to exercise that identity without guilt as long as they do not force that sexual identity on others.
Paulo Coelho
There are moments when tribulations occur in our lives, and we cannot avoid them. But they are there for some reason.
Paulo Coelho
We must struggle for our dreams, but when certain paths prove impossible, it would be best to save our energies in order to travel other roads.
Paulo Coelho
The old shepherd was right: The only solution was to forget a part of uncertainty and create a new history for oneself.
Paulo Coelho
Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows.
Paulo Coelho
Don't allow your mind to tell your heart what to do. The mind gives up easily
Paulo Coelho
In the northern hemisphere, always dressing according to the season: bare arms in spring (however cold it is) and woolen jacket in winter (however hot it is).
Paulo Coelho
Defeat ends when we launch into another battle. Failure has no end: it is a lifetime choice.
Paulo Coelho
