Image
Anyone who has known happiness will never again be able humbly to accept sadness.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Desire is not what you see, but what you imagine.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The gods throw the dice and they don't ask whether we want to be in the game or not.
Paulo Coelho
Image
We, their hearts, become fearful just thinking of loved ones who go away forever, or of moments that could have been good but weren't, or of moments that could have been found but were forever hidden in the sands.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I need to write about love. I need to think and think and write about love-otherwise, my soul won’t survive.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Loneliness, when accepted, becomes a gift that will lead us to find a purpose in life.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The parents always insisted on telling their child that their secret friends didn't exist - perhaps because they had forgotten that they too had spoken to their angel at one time. Or, who knows, perhaps they thought they lived in a world where there was no longer any place for angels.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The boy and his heart had become friends, and neither was capable now of betraying the other.
Paulo Coelho
Image
When faced with a loss, it is no use trying to recover what has gone. On the other hand, a great space has been opened up in your life - there it lies, empty, waiting to be filled with something new. At the moment of one's loss, contradictory as this might seem, one is being given a large slice of freedom.
Paulo Coelho
Image
It’s not always enough to be forgiven by someone, in most cases we have to forgive ourselves first.
Paulo Coelho
Image
No one loses anyone, because no one owns anyone
Paulo Coelho
Image
She [the Virgin Mary] was normal. She had already had other children. The Bible tells us that Jesus had two brothers. Virginity, as it relates to Jesus, is based on a different thing: Mary initiated a new generation of grace. A new era began. She is the cosmic bride, Earth, which opens to the heavens and allows itself to be fertilized.
Paulo Coelho
Image
He knows that he must act, but he must allow room for the Universe to act too.
Paulo Coelho
Image
The world is being created and destroyed in this very moment. Whoever you met will reappear, whoever you lost will return. Don’t betray the grace that was bestowed on you. Understand what is going on inside you and you will understand what is going on inside everyone else. Don’t imagine that I came to bring peace. I came with a sword.
Paulo Coelho
Image
They were seeking out the treasure of their destiny, without actually wanting to live out their destiny.
Paulo Coelho
Image
Don't waste your time with explanations: people only hear what they want to hear.
Paulo Coelho
Image
I write to empty my mind and to fill my heart.
Paulo Coelho
Image
A Warrior of Light values a child's eyes because they are able to look at the world without bitterness. When he wants to find out if the person beside him is worthy of his trust, he tries to see him as a child would
Paulo Coelho

The universe is going to help the Warrior.

Beware of anyone who tries to please you all the time.
