The Alchemist

by Paulo Coelho

It’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting,

Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.

“It’s this: that at a certain point in our lives, we lose control of what’s happening to us, and our lives become controlled by fate. That’s the world’s greatest lie.”

when each day is the same as the next, it’s because people fail to recognize the good things that happen in their lives every day that the sun rises.

There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.”
