The desert takes our dreams away from us, and they don't always return. We know that, and we are used to it. Those who don't return become a part of the clouds, a part of the animals that hide in the ravines and of the water that comes from the earth. They become part of everything. They become the Soul of the World.
Paulo CoelhoAll religions lead to the same God, and all deserve the same respect. Anyone who chooses a religion is also choosing a collective way for worshipping and sharing the mysteries. Nevertheless, that person is the only one responsible for his or her actions along the way and has no right to shift responsibility for any personal decisions on to that religion.
Paulo CoelhoDon't think about what you’ll tell people afterward. The time is here and now. Make the most of it.
Paulo CoelhoI cry very easily. It can be a movie, a phone conversation, a sunset - tears are words waiting to be written.
