Ever since time began, people have recognized their true Love by the light in their eyes.
Paulo Coelho
Only someone who can say 'I love you' is capable of saying 'I forgive you.
Paulo Coelho
No one can learn to love by following a manual, and no one can learn to write by following a course. I'm not telling you to seek out other writers but to find people with different skills from yourself, because writing is no different from any other activity done with joy and enthusiasm.
Paulo Coelho
People, since the beginning of time, have always tried to understand the universe through love.
Paulo Coelho
God is love, generosity and forgiveness; if we believe in this, we will never allow our weaknesses to paralyze us.
Paulo Coelho
You want to know if the heart of a man or a woman can contain enough love for more than one person? … I think it's perfectly possible as long as one of those people doesn't turn into … a Zahir.
Paulo Coelho
He who loves has conquered the world and has no fear of losing anything. True love is an act of surrender.
Paulo Coelho
The past and the future become unimportant. There is only that moment, and the incredible certainty that everything under the sun has been written by one hand only. It is the hand that evokes love, and creates a twin soul for every person in the world. Without such love, one's dreams would have no meaning.
Paulo Coelho
The Saint finds her true reason for living in unconditional love and in her ability to give without asking anything in return.
Paulo Coelho
Love is not to be found in someone else, but in ourselves; we simply awaken it. But in order to do that, we need the other person.
Paulo Coelho
Of all the ways we have found to hurt ourselves, the worse has been through love. We are always suffering because of someone who doesn't love us, or someone who has left us, or someone who won't leave us. If we are alone, it is because no one wants us...
Paulo Coelho
Reason lost the battle, and all I could do was surrender and accept I was in love.
Paulo Coelho
I love you because all the loves in the world are like different rivers flowing into the same lake where they meet and are transformed into a single love that becomes rain and blesses the earth.
Paulo Coelho
In love, no one can harm anyone else; we are each of us responsible for our own feelings and cannot blame someone else for what we feel. It hurt when I lost each of the various men I fell in love with. Now, though, I am convinced that no one loses anyone, because no one owns anyone. That is the true experience of freedom: having the most important thing in the world without owning it.
Paulo Coelho
Love is always new. Regardless of whether we love once, twice, or a dozen times in our life, we always face a brand-new situation. Love can consign us to hell or to paradise, but it always takes us somewhere. We simply have to accept it, because it is what nourishes our existence. If we reject it, we die of hunger, because we lack the courage to reach out a hand and pluck the fruit from the branches of the tree of life. We have to take love where we find it, even if it means hours, days, weeks of disappointment and sadness. The moment we begin to seek love, love begins to seek us. And to save us.
Paulo Coelho
In the first place, you shouldn't believe in promises. The world is full of them: the promises of riches, of eternal salvation, of infinite love. Some people think they can promise anything, others accept whatever seems to guarantee better days ahead, as, I suspect is your case. Those who make promises they don't keep end up powerless and frustrated, and exactly the fate awaits those who believe promises.
Paulo Coelho
Love is beyond time or rather love is both time and space but all focused on one single constantly evolving point-the Aleph.
Paulo Coelho
Our soul is governed by four invisible forces: love, death, power and time.
Paulo Coelho
I will never be yours, and you will never be mine; nevertheless, I can honestly say: I love you, I love you, I love you.
Paulo Coelho
So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you.
