Quotes about Paulo Coelho

São Paulo

São Paulo
The city that I was born in
I never liked you since I was a child
São Paulo
Now that I am grown up I still don't like you either
I don't feel safe being in the streets in São Paulo
To me São Paulo is very ugly in real life
It is only beautiful in the postcards
There is no in between
Either you are rich or poor
There are too many contrasts
São Paulo
A city that never sleeps
São Paulo
I am glad that you don't have snow
One thing that is great in São Paulo is summer, the hot weather

The better Sort should set before 'em
A Grace, a Manner, a Decorum;
Something, that gives their Acts a Light;
Makes 'em not only just, but bright;

Which witty Malice cannot blame.

For 'tis in Life, as 'tis in Painting:
Much may be Right, yet much be Wanting:
From Lines drawn true, our Eye may trace
A Foot, a Knee, a Hand, a Face:
May justly own the Picture wrought
Exact to Rule, exempt from Fault:
Yet if the Colouring be not there,
The Titian Stroke, the Guido Air;
To nicest Judgment show the Piece;

Malvina

Mal va malvina
Que a los hombres enloquece
Caprichosa es esa nia
Mal va malvina
Que a los hombres enloquece
Caprichosa es esa nia
Un amor violentado
Susurro en susurrado
Y al mundo se aventur
Si fue a baha, no s
Si fue a sao paulo, no s
Si fue para ro, al mundo
Quizs vuelva pronto, tal vez
Si fue a baha, no s
Si fue a sao paulo, no s
Si fue para ro, al mundo
Quizs vuelva pronto, tal vez
Mal va malvina
Que a los hombres enloquece
Caprichosa es esa nia

There is in the world a language that everyone understands: the language of enthusiasm, of things made with love and desire, looking for what you want or what you believe.
