Wisdom Quote by Paulo Coelho — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“the grandeur of God reveals itself through simple things”

“And what went wrong when other alchemists tried to make gold and were unable to do so?”

“The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them.”

“Ever since time began, people have recognized their true Love by the light in their eyes.”

“When we want something, we have to have a clear purpose in mind for the thing that we want. The only reason for seeking a reward is to know what to do with that reward”

“But if you believe yourself worthy of the thing you fought so hard to get, then you become an instrument of God, you help the Soul of the World, and you understand why you are here.”

“When did you get so clever?”

“Panic is simply the void where knowledge should be. A prepared kitchen is a quiet kitchen.”

“The Coming of Wisdom with Time”

“I fail to remember ever having made an effort — no trace of struggle is detectable in my life, I am the opposite of a heroic nature. To “want” something, to “strive” for something, to have an “end,” a “desire” in mind — I know none of this from my experience. Even at this moment I look out upon my future — a broad future! — as upon a smooth sea: no desire ripples upon it.”

“Trees are poems the earth writes upon the sky, We fell them down and turn them into paper,”

“I'd rather have less time than I think, than less think than I have time.”
