Quotes from alchemist

When a person really desires something, all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream

Remember that wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure. You've got to find the treasure, so that everything you have learned along the way can make sense.

Don't think about what you've left behind.

Most people see the world as a threatening place, and, because they do, the world turns out, indeed, to be a threatening place.

When you possess great treasures within you, and try to tell others of them, seldom are you believed.

To die tomorrow was no worse than dying on any other day. Every day was there to be lived or to mark one's departure from this world.


For the eternal dreamer in me there is nothing more satisfying than reading the alchemist by Paulo Coelho which every person should read not just as a book but rather step into the shoes of the protagonist Santiago and feel the vibe which you can get from the book. The first quote is something which truly sends a chill down my spine whenever i think about it the more i start believing in what i can do. this is very much like our Indian Epics but it does not have that larger than life reel feeling to it.

In many times we are like Santiago caught between choices afraid of failure afraid of the world and we look for the push to propel us forward and we look outside for it than realize it within us on how much it is in us.

As it was famously said by Aerosmith "Dream on Dream On Dream On Dream on till your dream comes true .
