I am not happy, and the quest for happiness as a principal objective is not part of my world. Of course, ever since I can remember, I have done what I felt like doing.

Image
There is only one sin - lack of love. Be brave, be capable of loving, even if love seems a terrible and treacherous thing. Find joy in love. Find joy in victory. Follow the dictates of your heart.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I was tired of playing the child and acting the way many of my friends did - the ones who are afraid that love is impossible without even knowing what love is. If I stayed like that, I would miss out on everything good that these few days with him might offer.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Always saying, I tried when you didn't really try at all.
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

Treasure is uncovered by the force of flowing water, and it is buried by the same currents.
Paulo Coelho

We are here because we are made by God, we will return to God. So people who think that they are something, they are totally wrong. And this is the most beautiful thing in life, it is that we don't own anything. So, everything is ours in the sense that we have the world to explore and not things to carry, a burden to carry.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Because i've suffered. Because many times in my life i have tried to love with all my heart, and my love has wound up being trampled or betrayed.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Feelings should always be allowed to be free. You should not judge a future love by past suffering.
Paulo Coelho
Image

There is nothing worse than the feeling that no one cares whether we exists or not, that no one is interested in what we have to say about life, and that the world can continue turning without our awkward presence
Paulo Coelho
Image
Love with no boundaries. Your future depends on your capacity to love.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Treat every challenge as a lesson, every mistake you make as a blessing and move on.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Every Warrior of the Light has failed in his spiritual duties.
Paulo Coelho
Image
It's always easy to blame others. You can spend your entire life blaming the world, but your successes or failures are entirely your own responsibility.
Paulo Coelho
Image
In the southern hemisphere, covering the Christmas tree with fake snow even though winter has nothing to do with the birth of Christ.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Every Warrior of the Light has, at some time in the past, lied or betrayed someone.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When we step out of our normal world and leave behind us all the usual barriers and prejudices, we tend to become more adventurous.
Paulo Coelho
Image
If you act like a victim, you are likely to be treated as one.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Try to live with the same intensity as a child. He doesn't ask for explanations he dives into each day as if it were a new adventure and, at night, sleeps tired and happy.
Paulo Coelho
Image
He manages to balance Rigor and Mercy.
Paulo Coelho
