Selected Quotes from Paulo Coelho's " The Fifth Mountain"

A long time ago I read this book, and was touched by it. An amazing book which touches everyday life in simple quotes which we tend to overlook in this rat race of life. In the absence of any creative juices flowing, I thought i would borrow some quotes from Paulo Coelho and keep the continuity of the blog.


Not always does his plan agree with what we are or what we feel, but rest assured that he has a reason for all of this.

Human beings are divided into two groups, those who took joy in and those who complained about, what they did.

a man must go through various stages before he can fulfill his destiny.

when we delay harvest, the fruit rots; when we delay resloving problems they continue to grow.

At this moment, many people have stopped living. They do not become angry, nor cry out; they merely wait for time to pass. they didnot accept the challenges of life, so life no longer challenges them. You are running the same risk; react, face life but do not stop living.

The greatest wisdom is blinded by the glare of vanity.

The meaning of life is whatever you want it to be.

A child can teach an adult three things :
- to be happy for no reason.
- to always be busy with something.
- to know how to demand with all his might that which he desires
