“When you want something, the whole universe conspires to help you realize your desire.” (The Alchemist – published in 1988)
“Each day’s magic moment helps us to change and sends us off in search of our dreams.” (By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept)
“Dreams nourish the soul just as food nourishes the body. The pleasure of the search and of adventure feed our dreams.” (The Pilgrimage)
“If you have a past with which you feel dissatisfied, then forget it, now. Imagine a new story for your life and believe in it. Focus only on the moments when you achieved what you desired, and that strength will help you to get what you want.” (The Fifth Mountain)
“Only one thing makes a dream impossible: the fear of failure” (The Alchemist)
“Open your heart and listen to what it is telling you. Follow your dreams, because only a man who is unashamed of himself can manifest the glory of God.” (The Valkyries)

Mush here’re some of my favourites on dreams, though I don’t know from whom.
-Poor are the people who don’t have dreams.
-Be careful of the dreams you chose for, dreams come true.
-All men dream but not equally. Most of them dream in the rusty recess of the night and by morning it fades into vanity, the dreamers of the day are dangerous men…for, they might live their dreams.

Paulo Coelho is my favourite writer. He is also an inspiration.The Alchemist changed my life because since I read it I believe that one must always go for the dream.

Have you read her latest – Winners Stands Alone? Not even close to Alchemist or his other earlier books.

No, I’ve not read it and I won’t be quick to buy it either. I saw that it is set at the Cannes Film Festival, and I therefore have little interest in reading it. It happens that once an author is famous, they get books published that they should never even have written.
