"A prayer couched in the words of the soul, is far more powerful than any ritual."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"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
"That was a matter suspended between heaven and earth, awaiting the hand of destiny."

Paulo Coelho
"It's better to lose some of battles in the struggle for your dreams than to be defeated without ever even knowing what you're fighting for."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"You're always learning. The problem is, sometimes you stop and think you understand the world. This is not correct. The world is always moving. You never reach the point you can stop making an effort."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"We are human beings, we are born full of guilt; we feel terrified when happiness becomes a real possibility."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"Never stop having doubts. If you ever do, it will be because you've stopped moving forward, and at that point, God will step in and pull the rug out from under your feet, because that is His way of controlling His chosen ones, by making sure they always follow their appointed path to the end. If, for any reason, we stop, whether out of complacency, laziness, or out of a mistaken belief that we know enough, He forces us on."

"But it's better to lose some of the battles in the struggle for your dreams than to be defeated without ever even knowing what you're fighting for."
Quote_1.png
Paulo Coelho
"It is a shame that what happens today already happened yesterday, and will happen again tomorrow; it will continue to happen until the end of time, or until man finds out he is not only what he thinks, but mostly what he feels. The body tires easily, but the spirit is always free and will help us get out, one day, from this infernal cycle of repeating the same mistakes every generation. Although thoughts always remain the same, there is something stronger, and this is called Love."
