In this post, I decided to gather my favorite Paulo Coelho quotes as he is one of my favorite authors. I have read almost all of his books and, his best-seller “The Alchemist” more than once.

Yesterday, my 6-year-old son declared that he knew all his books by heart. And, he wanted to hear something different before his sleep. So, he chose randomly a book from my library and it was “The Alchemist“.

Fortunately, the beginning of the book is like a fairy tale. It starts with a shepherd who wants to travel all over the world with his herd of sheep. After a couple of pages, he slept. But this incident reminded me of how many beautiful and inspiring quotes from Paulo Coelho. I hope to find them inspiring, too. Of course, for number one, I chose may be his most well-known quote…

Quotes from By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept


There is a legend that everything that falls into the waters of this river- leaves, insects, the feathers of birds- is transformed into the rocks that make the riverbed. If only I could tear out my heart and hurl it into the current, then my pain and longing would be over, and I could finally forget.

― Paulo Coelho, By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept

My favorite Paulo Coelho quotes from “Brida”


When you find your path, you must not be afraid. You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes. Disappointment, defeat, and despair are the tools God uses to show us the way.

― Paulo Coelho, Brida
My favorite Paulo Coelho quotes

We can never judge the lives of others because each person knows only their own pain and renunciation. It’s one thing to feel that you are on the right path, but it’s another to think that yours is the only path.

― Paulo Coelho
