The Alchemist

Posted by Alisyn:

Here is my contribution to The Book Orchard after recently finishing "The Alchemist":

"There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure." (p 141)

"No matter what he does, every person on earth plays a central role in the history of the world." (p 158)

VERY ENCOURAGING and GOOD book! Worth a read.

I am now reading "The Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett (thanks again for the book, Shannon!). I'll let you know how that goes.
