The wise are wise only because they love. The fool are fools only because they think they can understand love.
Paulo CoelhoBefore commencing battle, the Warrior of Light opens his heart and asks God to inspire him.
Paulo CoelhoOur children must follow in our footsteps; after all, we are older and know about the world.
Paulo CoelhoThose who are truly enlightened, those whose souls are illuminated by love, have been able to overcome all of the inhibitions and preconceptions of their era. They have been able to sing, to laugh, and to pray out loud; they have danced and shared what Saint Paul called 'the madness of saintliness'. They have been joyful - because those who love conquer the world and have no fear of loss. True love is an act of total surrender.
Paulo Coelho
