Paulo Coelho Quotes

There's too much judgment out there. Really what we need to be doing is just all of us finding our own paths towards living the best lives we can live as clearly and boldly in accordance with our own personal values. And that's what I'm trying to do.

Never stop being YOU. I am out to be the best ME I can be. Do what you LOVE and you will be badass.

You change the world by being yourself.

That's a song about reaching deep inside yourself where you can completely be who you are.

How many cares one loses when one decides not to be something but to be someone.

When you're true to who you are, amazing things happen.

I wanted to do things that I knew were going to be me.

I'm undeniably myself, and I think realizing that is the way to live life.

Having to stake out your identity and have people question whether or not you're being yourself was a tension that I could relate to.

My music just stands for being true to who you are.

Be yourself & you can be anything.

I had been in a place where I was letting too many people dictate who I should be and what I should be, and I was trying to make everybody happy to the point where it was just killing me. I'd completely lost myself. It's kind of funny now that people think I've completely changed myself for Marilyn Manson, when this is actually the first time in my life that I took a stand and said, "This is who I am and this is who I've always wanted to be, and I'm finally with somebody who lets me be who I want to be."

The only way you're going to get through life, happily, is being yourself.

Be who you are. If you spend all of your time worrying about how people view you, you will not be either faithful to yourself or effective in what you're trying to do.

To succeed in life, succeed at being yourself.

Great things happen when you have the courage to be yourself

I've learned that all you can be in this world is you. No matter how much you mess with yourself, with surgery or you know, clothes or cut your hair differently or how much you wish and pray and dream that you're gonna wake up as someone else, it's never gonna happen. You have one life and one opportunity, and all you can be is the best you.

Accept your own and be yourself!

Nothing I accept about myself can be used against me to diminish me. I am who I am, doing what I came to do, acting upon you like a drug or a chisel to remind you of your me-ness, as I discover you in myself.

It's a hell of a responsibility to be yourself. It's much easier to be somebody else or nobody at all.

I guess what I know now that I definitely didn't know as a child, is that being truest to yourself is the greatest weapon in the war to achieve. That sounds really negative, but in conquering or achieving something. I think, as a child, I thought I had to be somebody else.

Be who you are, not who the world wants you to be.

Remind yourself that you cannot fail at being yourself.

Live your life so that if someone says 'Be yourself' it's good advice.

Every time you come to the limit of what is demanded of you, you are faced with the same problem-to be yourself!
