Perhaps love makes us grow old before our time and makes us young again when youth has passed.
Paulo Coelho
Image
It is not time that changes man nor knowledge the only thing that can change someone's mind is love.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I believe everything is one thing only. That said, there are some questions in my life that I don't know.. I've stopped asking. At the very beginning of my life, I wanted to have answers for everything. And now I respect the fact that I can't have answers for everything.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The energy of hatred won't get you anywhere but the energy of forgiveness, which reveals itself through love, will transform your life in a positive way.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Don't expect your genius to be discovered do what you must do because it gives you joy. Don't expect your love to be accepted. Love because it justifies your life.
Paulo Coelho

Life can seem short or life can seem long, depending on how you live it.
Paulo Coelho
Image
So you see, Good and Evil have the same face it all depends on when they cross the path of each individual human being.
Paulo Coelho

People, since the beginning of time, have always tried to understand the universe through love.
Paulo Coelho
Image
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
Image
Do not forget: seek to win all your battles, including those you fight against yourself. Do not fear the scars. Do not be afraid of victory.
Paulo Coelho
Image
It is hereby decreed that the wall separating the sacred and the profane be toen down. From now on everything is sacred.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Remember your dreams and fight for them. You must know what you want from life. There is just one thing that makes your dream become impossible: the fear of failure.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We suffer because we feel we are giving more than we receive. We suffer because our love is going unrecognized. We suffer because we are unable to impose our own rules.
Paulo Coelho
