Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Stop thinking about life and choose to live it
Paulo Coelho
Image
Defeat ends when we launch into another battle. Failure has no end: it is a lifetime choice.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Fear exists until the moment when the unavoidable happens, after that we must waste none of our energy on it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I don't know if the books are making the world a much better place. I don't write with that objective. What I know is that I see my readers creating a critical mass so we can at least understand this world in a different way.
Paulo Coelho
Image
No man is an island. To fight the good fight we need help.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Whenever we need to make a very important decision it is best to trust our instincts, because reason usually tries to remove us from our dream, saying that the time is not yet right. Reason is afraid of defeat, but intuition enjoys life and its challenges.

Borges said there are only four stories to tell: a love story between two people, a love story between three people, the struggle for power and the voyage. All of us writers rewrite these same stories ad infinitum.

You can only know a good wine if you have first tasted a bad one.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Closing cycles. Not because of pride, incapacity or arrogance, but simply because that no longer fits your life. Shut the door, change the record, clean the house, shake off the dust. Stop being who you were, and change into who you are.
Paulo Coelho
Image
It's not what enters men's mouth that is evil, said the alchemist. It's what comes out of their mouths that is.
Paulo Coelho
Image
What makes life interesting are the challenges we face.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Life is too short for us to keep important words, for example, 'I love you', locked in our hearts.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Enjoy your magic moment today. As it will not be here tomorrow.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Coincidence is the language of the stars, for something to happen, so many forces have to be put into action.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Whenever a new situation presented itself, you had to remain cool and distant
Paulo Coelho
Image
Love creates bridges where it would seem they were impossible.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Our life is a constant journey, from birth to death. The landscape changes, the people change, our needs change, but the train keeps moving. Life is the train, not the station.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Each human being was given two possibilities: action and contemplation. Both lead to the same place.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The Superclass tries to promote its values. Ordinary people complain of divine injustice, they envy power, and it pains them to see others having fun. They don’t understand that no one is having fun, that everyone is worried and insecure, and that what the jewels, cars, and fat wallets conceal is a huge inferiority complex.
