Danh ngôn của Paulo Coelho (Sứ mệnh: 6)

Beauty is the greatest seducer of man.
One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving.
Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows.
Life was always a matter of waiting for the right moment to act.
If you start by promising what you don't even have yet, you'll lose your desire to work towards getting it.
You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.
Everything that happens once can never happen again. But everything that happens twice will surely happen a third time.
Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dream.
Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.
Every day I try to be in communication with the universe in an unconscious way.
Of course, to have money is just great because you can do what you think is important to you. I always was a rich person because money's not related to happiness.
All women have a perception much more developed than men. So all women somehow, being repressed for so many millennia, they ended up by developing this sixth sense and contemplation and love. And this is something that we have a hard time to accept as part of our society.
I'm not saying that love always takes you to heaven. Your life can become a nightmare. But that said, it is worth taking the risk.
When you are enthusiastic about what you do, you feel this positive energy. It's very simple.
The good old days, when each idea had an owner, are gone forever.
We want to answer this classical question, who am I? So I think that most of our works are for art, or whatever we do, including science or religion, tried to answer that question.
I think you can have 10,000 explanations for failure, but no good explanation for success.
I walk every day, and I look at the mountains and the fields and the small city, and I say: 'Oh my God, what a blessing.' Then you realise it's important to put it in a context beyond this woman, this man, this city, this country, this universe.
The more in harmony with yourself you are, the more joyful you are and the more faithful you are. Faith is not to disconnect you from reality - it connects you to reality.
Everybody is a political person, whether you say something or you are silent. A political attitude is not whether you go to parliament; it's how you deal with your life, with your surroundings.
I lived in a dictatorship in Brazil, and I was arrested three times. I felt in my flesh what it is to live under such a regime and experience deprivation of freedom.
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.
I always was a rich person because money's not related to happiness.
In writing, I apply my feminine side and respect the mystery involved in creation.
Writing is a solitary experience. I'm extremely superstitious. If I talk about the book or name the title out loud before finishing, I feel the energy I need to write will be drained. It's so intimate, I can't even share it with my wife.
Remember your dreams and fight for them. You must know what you want from life. There is just one thing that makes your dream become impossible: the fear of failure.
With all due respect, the Mona Lisa is overrated.
However happy people say they are, nobody is satisfied: we always have to be with the prettiest woman, buy a bigger house, change cars, desire what we do not have.
I believe enlightenment or revelation comes in daily life. I look for joy, the peace of action. You need action. I'd have stopped writing years ago if it were for the money.
I have seen many storms in my life. Most storms have caught me by surprise, so I had to learn very quickly to look further and understand that I am not capable of controlling the weather, to exercise the art of patience and to respect the fury of nature.
