Unique Paulo Coelho Quotes that I have found over time….Enjoy!

“The glory of the world is transitory, and we should not measure our lives by it, but by the choice we make to follow our personal legend, to believe in our utopias and to fight for our dreams.  We are all protagonists of our own lives, and it is often the anonymous heroes who leave the deepest mark.”      Coelho     Acceptance speech delivered to the Brazilian academy of letters.

 ”The good fight is the one that we fight in the name of our dreams; it was brought from the battlefields into our very selves.”    Coelho   The Pilgrimage

 ”Ever since the time began, people have recognized their true love by the light in their eyes.”                            Coelho    Brida

“Do not try to explain feelings.  Live everything intensely and treasure what you feel as a gift from God.”         Coelho         Brida

 ”The world lies in the hands of those who have the courage to dream and who take risk of living out their dreams - each according to his or her own talent”                        Coelho    The Valkyries

 ”Love is looking at the same mountains from different angles.”                          Coelho     The Valkyries

“Life always waits for some crisis to occur before revealing itself at its most brilliant.”     Coelho       The Valkyries

If you have a past with which you feel dissatisfied, the forget it, now.  Imagine a new story for your life and believe in it.  Focus only on the moments when you achieved what you desired, and that strength will help you get what you want.”                              Coelho    The Fifth Mountain

 ”When we are high up, everything looks very small.  Our glories and our sadnesses cease to be important.  We have left whatever we won or lost down below.  From the top of a mountain you can see how large the world is and how wide the horizon.”                Coelho    The Fifth Mountain

“Every day, God gives us, as well as the sun, a moment when it is possible to change anything that is causing us unhappiness. The magic moment is the moment when a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’ can change our whole existence.  Every day, we try to pretend that we do not see that moment, this it does not exit, that today is the same as yesterday and that tomorrow will be the same too.  However, anyone who pays close attention to his day will discover the magic moment.  It might be hidden in the instant that we put the key in the door in the morning, in the moment of silence after supper, in the thousand and one things that appear to us to be the same.  This moment exists, a moment in which all the strenght of the stars flows through us and allows us to perform miracles.” Coelho           By the River Piedra I sat down and wept

“In his or her life, each person can take one of two attitudes: to build or to plant.  Builders may take years over their tasks, but one day they will finish what they are doing.  Then they will stop, hemmed in by their own walls.  Life becomes meaningless once the building is finished.  Those who plant suffer the storms and the seasons and rarely rest.  Unlike a building, a garden never stops growing.  And by its constant demands on the gardener’s attention, it makes the gardener’s life a great adventure.”  Coelho   Brida
