No matter what he does, every person on earth plays a centra... - Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist

"And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it."

"Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And that no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dreams, because every second of the search is a second's encounter with God and with eternity."

"Everything you need to know you have learned through your journey."

"The secret of happiness is to see all the marvels of the world, and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon."

"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."
