Duty never stopped anyone from following their dreams.
Paulo Coelho
Image
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
The wise men understood that this natural world is only an image and a copy of paradise. The existence of this world is simply a guarantee that there exists a world that is perfect. God created the world so that, through its visible objects, men could understand his spiritual teachings and the marvels of his wisdom.
Paulo Coelho

Changes happen when we go against everything we're used to doing.

The wise are wise only because they love.
Paulo Coelho

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
Love is not to be found in someone else, but in ourselves we simply awaken it. But in order to do that, we need the other person. The universe only makes sense when we have someone to share our feelings with.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I was once more in a time which the things around me were changing and that is how I wanted it to be for the rest of my days.
Paulo Coelho
Image
A wise person is full of questions. A dull person is full of answers.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I will be capable of loving, regardless of whether I am loved in return, Of giving, when I have nothing, Of working happily, even in the midst of difficulties, Of holding out my hand, even when utterly alone and abandoned, Of drying my tears, even while I weep, Of believing, even when no one believes in me.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The best way to weaken one's enemy was to get him to believe that you were on his side.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Insanity is in the eyes of the beholder. So I will continue to live my personal folly.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I think the big danger of madness is not madness itself, but the habit of madness. What I discovered during the time I spent in the asylum is that I could choose madness and spend my whole life without working, doing nothing, pretending to be mad. It was a very strong temptation.
Paulo Coelho

God, in his infinite wisdom, hid Hell in he middle of Paradise, to keep us on our toes.
