Here are some of the quotes written by Paulo Coelho in his beautiful novel “The Alchemist”. Those who have read this book already know how inspiring and amazing it is. And all those who have not read the book yet, please do. It is an investment, really. It is a beautiful and life-changing book. This book holds the power to change your perspective towards life and it will make you fall in love with your dreams. If you are one of those people who believe in signs, you should definitely read this book. This is your sign to do what you have always wanted to do. When you'll read it, you will know what I am talking about.

Well, we all have heard about the renowned author “Paulo Coelho” and today, I have curated 8 quotes from one of his most inspiring novels - “The Alchemist”. 

Here they are:

• “We are afraid of losing what we have, whether it's our life or our possessions and property. But this fear evaporates when we understand that our life stories and the history of the world were written by the same hand.”

• “When you want something with all your heart, that's when you are closest to the Soul of the World. It's always a positive force.”

• “It's the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting.”

• “It's the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary; only wise men are able to understand them.”

• “When we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too.”

• “And that's where the power of love comes in. Because when we love, we always strive to become better than we are.”

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

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

Hope you guys enjoyed reading this blog. I'll come back with more soon.
