Whenever I refused to follow my fate, something very hard to bear would happen in my life.
Paulo Coelho
Image
All women have a perception much more developed than men. So all women somehow, being repressed for so many millennia, they ended up by developing this sixth sense and contemplation and love. And this is something that we have a hard time to accept as part of our society.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Spending years studying at university only to find out at the end of it all that you're unemployable.
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

In a world where everyone struggles to survive whatever the cost, how could one judge those people who decide to die? No one can judge. Each person knows the extent of their own suffering or the total absence of meaning in their lives.
Paulo Coelho

We all have an unknown ability, which will probably remain unknown forever. And yet that ability can become our ally. Since it’s impossible to measure that ability or give it an economic value, it’s never taken seriously.
Paulo Coelho

Behind a cold face there is always an insecure heart.
Paulo Coelho

Our life is a constant journey, from birth to death. The landscape changes, the people change, our needs change, but the train keeps moving. Life is the train, not the station.
Paulo Coelho
Image
In order not to suffer, you had to renounce love. It was like putting out your own eyes in order not to see the bad things in life.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Things pass, and the best we can do is to let them really go away
Paulo Coelho
Image
God judges a tree by its fruits and not by its roots.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When the Warrior takes on a commitment, he keeps his word.
Paulo Coelho
Image
You say they create their own reality, said Veronika, but what is reality?
Paulo Coelho
Image
Insanity is to behave like someone that you are not.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Sometimes, you get no second chance and that its best to accept the gifts the world offers you.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Take these, said the old man, holding out a white stone and a black stone that had been embedded at the center of the breastplate. They are called Urim and Thummim. The black signifies 'yes,' and the white 'no.' When you are unable to read the omens, they will help you to do so. Always ask an objective question.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The world is changed by your example, not by your opinion.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Close cycles. Not because of pride or arrogance, but because that no longer fits your life
Paulo Coelho
