The Alchemist is one of international best selling book in history by Paulo Coelho. It has a place in my 'Favourite Books" list, so I feel like sharing some my favourite quotes from this beautiful work.
"It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting."
"You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it is better to listen to what it has to say."
"If you're brave enough to say goodbye, life will reward you with a new hello."
"Sometimes it's better to leave things as they are."
"When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better too."
"What's the world's greatest lie?
   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 every day seems the same, it is because we have stopped noticing the good things that appear in our lives."
"People are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of."
So these are some of my personal favourites which have helped me to change my outlook towards life, but this book holds a lot more. I recommend everyone to read this book at least once. Give it a try, you'll love it!
