More quotes by Paulo Coelho

Image
I don't care whether it was once sacred or not, I HATE WHAT I DO. It's destroying my soul, making me lose touch with myself, teaching me that pain is a reward, that money buys everything and justifies everything.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We all harbour a great sadness in our soul
Paulo Coelho
Image
The only way to make the right decision is to find out which is the wrong decision, to examine that other path without fear, and only then decide.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I had this dream to become a writer since I was a teenager.
Paulo Coelho

Paulo Coelho
Image
Make each day truly new, dressing it with the blessings of heaven, bathing it in wisdom and love and putting yourself under the protection of Mother Nature. Learn from the wise, from the sacred books, but do not forget that every mountain, river, plant or tree also has something to teach.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Life sometimes separates people so that they can realize how much they mean to each other.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Then she opened her eyes, Veronika did not think 'this must be heaven'. Heaven would never use a fluorescent tube to light a room, and the pain - which started a fraction of a second later - was typical of the Earth. Ah, that Earth pain - unique, unmistakable.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We still did not answer the questions that are important to us
Paulo Coelho
Image
The biggest mistake of the man is that he thinks he doesn't deserve the good and the bad things from his life.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We always know which is the best road to follow, but we follow only the road that we have become accustomed to.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We assume, falsely, that how we feel now is how we will feel in the future
Paulo Coelho
Image
Try to be good, you'll be judged. Try to be yourself, you'll be criticized. Therefore, choose the second option. Evil uses the nice good people as puppets. It appears dressed as a poor guy, telling them that he needs help...When these people realize they have been used, it is already too late.
Paulo Coelho
