The Alchemist

When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

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

People learn, early in their lives, what is their reason for being.

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.

So, I love you because the entire universe conspired to help me find you.

When we love, we always strive to become better than we are.

You have to risk everything. If you are brave enough to leave behind everything familiar and comforting and embark on a journey into the unknown.
