21 Inspiring Quotes From The Alchemist

Once in a lifetime a book comes along that you just love. A book that you can’t stop talking about and one that you have to reread over and over again. A book that you have to tell everyone to read because it is that good. However, it’s not a book to be borrowed to friends because it’s that precious to you and you fear it will be lost. 

For me, and many others, ‘The Alchemist’ is that book. It is filled with so many amazing inspirational quotes and I am going to share my favourite of them with you.
