The Alhemist quote

“When you know [the Universal Language of the World], it’s easy to understand that someone in the world awaits you, whether it’s in the middle of the desert or in some great city. And when two such people encounter each other, and their eyes meet, the past and the future become unimportant. There is only that moment, and the incredible certainty that everything under the sun has been written by one hand only. It is the hand that evokes love, and creates a twin soul for every person in the world. Without such love, one’s dreams would have no meaning.” –Paul Coelho

  1. 1 rosa de los vientos

    Mágicas son estas palabras y sabias porque en el fondo todos sentimos que estamos aquí para algo, y el encuentro con la otra parte es el mas sublime de los propósitos que Dios estableció para nosotros, nacimos juntos, nos hemos dividido,cada uno con sus experiencias y volvemos a unirnos antes de regresar, el TODO ha crecido, este es el propósito de la evolución.
    Solo deseo que todos encuentren a su otra parte y que el mundo sea feliz.
    Un beso Paulo, gracias por estas palabras tam sabias que en el fondo todos llevamos dentro.

  2. 2 Pandora (anyone seen by Box?)

    Paulo, you need to improve your spelling.
    There is always HOPE.
    Even at 60 ;)

    JOKE.

    Dearest Paulo,

    What happens after that moment? What if you find that love, you have those moments, and you discover a love so incredible that you realise God has to exist for only him can create such purity, and life itself makes it impossible for you two to be together? Its completely contradictory.

    Thank you for being.

    I never tire of reading The Alchemist, and each time it makes you feel the same sense of communion with the Universe. Thank you so much Paulo, for giving us this gift!!

    Love,

    This idea reminds me of how the love story of Jesse and Celine develops in Before Sunrise. Superb

    Hi,

    Why is everyone talking about Alchemist?? I personally think Alchemist is overhyped and paulo other books are really overshadowed. Have you read Eleven minutes?? Oh my god, I haven’t read a book like that, it is so amazing. No offense to anyone but I feel Eleven minutes is far better that Alchemist. It is so real. Oh my god! I just loved it and I love paulo even more. I love you Paulo.
