More quotes by 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
Anyone who has lost something they thought was theirs forever finally comes to realise that nothing really belongs to them.
Paulo Coelho
Look around. And don't get close to people who make you suffer.
Paulo Coelho
Every second of the search is an encounter with God. When I have been truly searching for my treasure, every day has been luminous...I've discovered things along the way that I never would have seen had I not had the courage to try things that seemed impossible for a shepherd to achieve.
Paulo Coelho
I can speak to my soul only when the two of us are off exploring deserts or cities or mountains or roads.
Paulo Coelho
Hell is when we look back during that fraction of a second and know that we wasted an opportunity to dignify the miracle of life. Paradise is being able to say at that moment: “I made some mistakes, but I wasn’t a coward. I lived my life and did what I had to do.
Paulo Coelho
If you act like a victim, you are likely to be treated as one.
Paulo Coelho
Only by accepting our desires can we have an idea of who we are.
Paulo Coelho
And they will return one day knowing the miracle of the heavens and of all the world. God knew what he was doing when he drew their attention to the tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. If he hadn’t wanted them to eat it, he would never have mentioned it.
Paulo Coelho
Investing a lot of time and money in external beauty and caring little about internal beauty.
Paulo Coelho
Veronika had noticed that a lot of people she knew would talk about the horros in other people's lives as if they were genuinely concerned to help them, but the truth was that they took pleasure in the suffering of others, because that made them believe they were happy and that life had been generous with them
Paulo Coelho
Lord, bless our week. Help us to take all the necessary risks to become the person we always wanted to be.
Paulo Coelho
The taste of things recovered is the sweetest honey we will ever know.
Paulo Coelho
To injure your opponent is to injure yourself.
Paulo Coelho
What is a personal calling? It is God's blessing, it is the path that God chose for you here on Earth. Whenever we do something that fills us with enthusiasm, we are following our legend. However, we don't all have the courage to confront our own dream.
Paulo Coelho
A man is at his strongest when he is willing to accept his vulnerability
Paulo Coelho
Our body remains alive, yet sooner or later our soul will receive a mortal blow. The perfect crime--for we don't know who murdered our joy, what their motives were, or where the guilty parties are to be found.
Paulo Coelho
Every human being has the right to search for happiness, and by 'happiness' is meant something that makes other people feel content.
Paulo Coelho
It is necessary to run risks, to follow certain paths and to abandon others. No one can make a choice without feeling fear.
Paulo Coelho
For the Warrior of the Light, there are no abstractions.
Paulo Coelho
