The Alchemist, Paulo Coelho

The story in this book is timeless and thought-provoking, and the number of quotable lines is out of control. My bookstore-owner friend recommended The Alchemist, and I read it in two days.
“That’s what alchemists do. They show that, when we strive to become better than we are, everything around us becomes better, too.”
“Everyone, when they are young, knows what their Personal Legend is.”
