Quotes by Paulo Coelho

Music for me, it demands full concentration.

I’d have stopped writing years ago if it were for the money.

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.

Love is a trap. When it appears, we see only its light, not its shadows.

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.

Love can consign us to hell or to paradise, but it always takes us somewhere.

The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.

One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving.

Life was always a matter of waiting for the right moment to act.

You have to take risks. We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.
