The three classic ways in which the Devil tempts us are with a threat, a promise or a seduction.

Life, Inspiration, Promise

To the warriors of light, there is no such thing as impossible love. They don’t allow themselves to be intimidated by silence, or by rejection. They know that – behind the icy mask people wear – there is a heart of fire. That is why the warriors risk more than others. They tirelessly seek love – even if this means hearing, many times over, the word ‘no’, returning home defeated, feeling rejected in body and soul. Warriors don’t allow themselves to be discouraged. Without love, live has no meaning.

Home, Heart, Mean

The only faults considered grave are the following: not respecting the rights of one's neighbor, letting oneself be paralyzed by fear, feeling guilty, thinking one does not deserve the good and bad which occurs in life, and being a coward.

Life, Thinking, Rights

Paulo Coelho (2015). “Warrior of the Light -”, Booklassic

When faced by any loss, there’s no point in trying to recover what has been, it’s best to take advantage of the large space that opens up before us and fill it with something new.

Loss, Space, Trying

Paulo Coelho (2011). “Aleph”, p.15, HarperCollins UK

We learn in the past, but we are not the result of that. We suffered in the past, loved in the past, cried and laughed in the past, but that's of no use to the present. The present has its challenges, its good and bad side. We can neither blame nor be grateful to the past for what is happening now. Each new experience of love has nothing whatsoever to do with past experiences. It's always new.

Grateful, Past, New Experiences

"Aleph". Book by Paulo Coelho, 2011.

It takes a huge effort to free yourself from memory, but when you succeed, you start to realize that you’re capable of far more than you imagined. You live in this vast body called the Universe, which contains all the solutions and all the problems. Visit your soul; don’t visit your past. The Universe goes through many mutations and carries the past with it. We call each of those mutations a ‘life,’ but just as the cells in your body change and yet you remain the same, so time does not pass, it merely changes.

Memories, Past, Cells

"Aleph". Book by Paulo Coelho, 2011.

When we love, it is not necessary to understand what is happening outside, because everything happens inside us instead.

Love, Life, Wisdom

Culture makes people understand each other better. And if they understand each other better in their soul, it is easier to overcome the economic and political barriers. But first they have to understand that their neighbour is, in the end, just like them, with the same problems, the same questions.

People, Political, Soul

Beauty is the greatest seducer of man.

Man needs what's worst in him in order to achieve what's best in him.

We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it's our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand.

To live is to experience things, not sit around pondering the meaning of life.

Life, Horse, Meaning Of Life

"Aleph". Book by Paulo Coelho, 2011.

From the moment that you feel enthusiastic about everything, you know that you are following your heart.

Heart, Moments, Enthusiastic

There is only one sin - lack of love. Be brave, be capable of loving, even if love seems a terrible and treacherous thing. Find joy in love. Find joy in victory. Follow the dictates of your heart.

Heart, Love Is, Joy

we are human beings, we are born full of guilt; we feel terrified when happiness becomes a real possibility.

Real, Guilt, Possibility

A best friend is someone with whom you can sit on the porch, without a word, and then walk away with the feeling that it was the best conversation that ever had in your life. I would like to see next to me was the man in whose presence my heart beat would be evenly and uniformly, the man next to whom I would be calm, because I was not afraid to be the next day to lose him. And the time would have flowed more slowly, and we could just keep quiet, knowing that to talk with us there is still a whole life. Only one thing makes a dream impossible - it is the fear of failure.

Dream, Heart, Men

When in doubt, just take the next small step

Doubt, Small Steps, Next

But love is always new. Regardless of whether we love once, twice, or a dozen times in our life, we always face a brand-new situation. Love can consign us to hell or to paradise, but it always takes us somewhere. We simply have to accept it, because it is what nourishes our existence. We have to take love where we find it, even if that means hours, days, weeks of disappointment and sadness.

Love, Life, Disappointment

The great wisdom of life is that we can be masters of the things that try to enslave us.

Trying, Life Is, Masters

Boredom is not in the world, but in the way we see the world.

Boredom, World, Way

Since the dawn of time man understands that suffering, faced with no fear, is his passport to freedom.

Life, Inspiration, Men

Sometimes, we are so attached to our way of life that we turn down wonderful opportunities simply because don't know what to do with it.
