I love his book the alchemist. Full of wisdom. I have read it in german so I am not sure but I think this quote is from the alchemist: "All you have to do is to pay attention; lessons always arrive when you are ready, and if you can read the signs, you will learn everything you need to know in order to take the next step."
The quote is from "The Zahir" book. I have read also the "Alchemist"... Right, full of wisdom...
