Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

"So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you."

"When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too."

"there is one great truth on this planet: whoever you are, or whatever it is that you do, when you really want something, it's because that desire originated in the soul of the universe. It's your mission on earth."

"No matter what he does, every person on earth plays a central role in the history of the world. And normally he doesn't know it."

"One is loved because one is loved. No reason is needed for loving."

"Remember that wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure."

"When someone sees the same people every day, as had happened with him at the seminary, they wind up becoming a part of that person's life. And then they want the person to change. If someone isn't what others want them to be, the others become angry. Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own."

"You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it's better to listen to what it has to say."

"When we love, we always strive to become better than we are. When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too."

"The secret of life, though, is to fall seven times and to get up eight times."

"But when he thought to complain about the burden of its weight, he remembered that, because he had the jacket, he had withstood the cold of the dawn.We have to be prepared for change, he thought, and he was grateful for the jacket's weight and warmth.The jacket had a purpose, and so did the boy."

"Once someone asked me, "What do you want to be your epitaph?"So I said, "Paulo Coelho died when he was alive."

"Isn't wine prohibited here?"the boy asked. "It's not what enters men's mouths that's evil,"said the alchemist. "It's what comes out of their mouths that is."

"You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it's better to listen to what it has to say."

"It's true; life really is generous to those who pursue their Personal Legend."

"Isn't wine prohibited here?"the boy asked. "It's not what enters men's mouths that's evil,"said the alchemist. "It's what comes out of their mouths that is."

"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."

"Every blessing ignored becomes a curse."

"Maktub"(It is written.)"

"People need not fear the unknown if they are capable of achieving what they need and want."
