Quotations and Reactions: Entry 1


"A truly good book teaches me better than to read it. I must soon lay it down, and commence living on its hint. What I began by reading, I must finish by acting."

Henry David Thoreau


This quote reflects the way I view The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. The lessons within the pages of this book truly make you examine your own life and journey. This book gave me a greater sense of purpose the more I read. By the time I had completed it, it had fully awakened a spirit within me that has proven to be greatly beneficial to my growth as a man. The way Coelho tells this story is sure to keep the reader looking forward to the next the next step in the journey. I highly recommend this book for anyone in search of a good read that will definitely leave you inspired.
