More quotes by Paulo Coelho
Maybe God created the desert so that man could appreciate the date trees
Paulo Coelho
When you travel you experience, in a very practical way, the act of rebirth. You confront completely new situations, the day passes more slowly, and on most journeys you don't even understand the language the people speak....You begin to be more accessible to others, because they may be able to help you in difficult situations.
Paulo Coelho
Live the life you always wanted to live. Avoid criticizing others and concentrate on fulfilling your dreams.
Paulo Coelho
No matter how many detours and adjustments it made, the caravan moved toward the same compass point. Once obstacles were overcome, it returned to its course, sighting on a star that indicated the location of the oasis.
Paulo Coelho
You're mistaken, Father. You were in paradise, but you didn't recognize it. It's the same with most people in this world they seek suffering in the most joyous of places because they think they are unworthy of happiness.
Paulo Coelho
We can also allow our Soulmate to pass us by,without accepting him or her,or even noticing. Then we will need another incarnation in order to find that Soulmate. And because of our selfishness, we will be condemned to the worst torture humankind ever invented for itself: loneliness.
Paulo Coelho
Most of my young years were spent under the boots of the military.
Paulo Coelho
It wasn't a dance, but the complete absence of noise and movement, the silence, that brought me in contact with myself.
Paulo Coelho
I don't regret the painful times I bare my scars as if they were medals.
Paulo Coelho
Don't let yourself be weighed down by what other people think, because in a few years, in a few decades, or in a few centuries, that way of thinking will have changed. Live now what others will only live in the future.
Paulo Coelho
Don't let anyone make you feel that you don't deserve the good things that happen in your life
Paulo Coelho
Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it meaning. Dream is also just a word until you decide to fight for it with all your enthusiasm and commitment
Paulo Coelho
it is only courage on the path itself that makes the path appear
Paulo Coelho
The search for happiness is more important than the need for pain.
Paulo Coelho
Courage is the first spiritual quality that you need to have.
Paulo Coelho
Love is the force that brings us back together, in order to condense the experience dispersed in many lives and many parts of the world.
Paulo Coelho
I was not encouraged to follow the career of a writer because my parents thought that I was going to starve to death. They thought nobody can make a living from being a writer in Brazil. They were not wrong.
Paulo Coelho
Many people don't allow themselves to love...because there are a lot of things at risk a lot of future and a lot of past.
Paulo Coelho
True wisdom consists in respecting the simple things we do
Paulo Coelho
When a person really desires something, all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream.
Paulo Coelho
