Paulo Coelho
Image
Now that she had nothing to lose, she was free.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Everything is worship if your mind is focused on the present moment.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Faith is not Desire. Faith is Will. Desires are things that need to be satisfied, whereas Will is a force. Will changes the space around us.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When everything seems to be going well and your dream is almost within your gasp, that is when you must be more alert than ever.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I think that, with age, people come to realize that death is inevitable. And we need to learn to face it with serenity, wisdom and resignation. Death often frees us from a lot of senseless sufferings.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Maybe God created the desert so that man could appreciate the date trees
Paulo Coelho
Image
Using every means possible to show that, although you're just an ordinary human being, you're far above other mortals.
Paulo Coelho
Image
For the Warrior of Light there is no such thing as an impossible love. He is not intimidated by silence, indifference or rejection. He knows that, behind the mask of ice that people wear, there beats a heart of fire. Without love, he is nothing.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Try to find pleasure in the speed that you're not used to. Changing the way you do routine things allows a new person to grow inside of you. But when all is said and done, you're the one who must decide how you handle it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
To one who knocks, the door will open.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The enemy is only a pretext to test our strength
Paulo Coelho
Image
The major religions, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, they deny somehow that God has a feminine face. However, if you go to the holy texts, you see there is this feminine presence.
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
Image
But now I knew that true love was above all that and that it would be better to die than to fail to love.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Instead of noting down things I’m unlikely to forget, I will write a poem. Even if I have never written one before and even if I never do so again, I will at least know that I once had the courage to put my feelings into words.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When faced with a loss, it is no use trying to recover what has gone. On the other hand, a great space has been opened up in your life - there it lies, empty, waiting to be filled with something new. At the moment of one's loss, contradictory as this might seem, one is being given a large slice of freedom.
Paulo Coelho
Image
If you want to be faithful to someone, start by being faithful to yourself.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Life is one long training session in preparation for what will come. Life and death lose their meaning there are only challenges to be met with joy and overcome with tranquility.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We are told from childhood onward that everything we want to do is impossible. We grow up with this idea, and as the years accumulate, so too do the layers of prejudice, fear and guilt. There comes a time when our personal calling is so deeply buried in our soul as to be invisible. But know that it's still there.
Paulo Coelho
