Paulo Coelho

Time does not always pass at the same speed. We are the ones who determine that speed.

The Lord listens to the pryers of those who ask to be able to forget hatred, but is deaf to those who want to flee love.

Few take up the burden of their own victory: most give up their dreams when they become impossible.

To love is to commune with another person and to discover in him or her a divine spark.

True love allows each person to follow his or her own path, aware that doing so can never drive them apart.

A warrior of light knows that he will hear an order in the silence of his heart that will guide him.

Love your enemy. But don’t forget he is not your friend.

The book is a film that takes place in the mind of the reader. That's why we go to movies and say, "Oh, the book is better”.

The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them.

So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you.

We wouldn't worry nearly as much about what others thought of us if we recognize how seldom they do.

When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.

Dreams nourish the soul just as food nourishes the body.

It’s better to lose some of the battles in the struggles for your dreams than to be defeated without ever knowing what you’re fighting for.
