Paulo Coelho Quotes

I just know who I am and what I like.

I remember that when people started listening to what I had to say, I had a choice to set up a veil, even if it meant being something that I'm not. Ultimately, that's not the decision I made. I owned more of everything I am, which was a little nerve-racking.

I am who I am. I don't try to be something I'm not.

I am who I am. I'm unique. I'm my own self.

Everybody who really knows me knows who I am, who I'm about and what I'm about.

I always try to say what I'm thinking, what I'm feeling, and without fear of what others will say or think, and that's how I've always lived.

I don't think I am fearless. I am just me.
