The Alchemist Abstract
- Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.
- At this point in their lives, everything is clear and everything is possible. They are not afraid to dream, and to yearn for everything they would like to see happen to them in their lives. But, as time passes, a mysterious force begins to convince them that it will be impossible for them to realize their destiny.
- When he was a child, that man wanted to travel, too. But he decided first to buy his bakery and put some money aside. when he is an old man, he’s going to spend a month in Africa. He never realized that people are capable, at any time in their lives, of doing what they dream of.
- The closer one gets to realizing his destiny, the more that destiny becomes his true reason for being.
- 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.
- Before a dream is realized, the Soul of the World tests everything that was learned along the way. It does this not because it is evil, but so that we can, in addition to realizing our dreams, master the lessons we’ve learned as we’ve moved toward that dream. That’s the point at which most people give up. It’s the point at which, as we say in the language of the desert, one dies of thirst just when the palm trees have appeared on the horizon.
- Every search begins with beginner’s luck. And every search ends with the victor’s being severely tested.
