That isn't an actual statement in the book. It is sorta jumbled around in the book. like they might say something like this " Naturally it's afraid that, in pursuing your dream, you might lose everything you've won." Or something like '' There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure." Hope i helped.
The statement "fear can prevent people from pursuing their dreams" is a theme present throughout "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho. It is not directly attributed to a specific page as it is a recurring motif in the novel. The message is conveyed through the protagonist Santiago's journey as he overcomes his own fears to pursue his personal legend.
"A Dream Deferred" by Langston Hughes and "The Alchemist" by Paulo Coelho both explore the idea of pursuing one's dreams and the consequences of not doing so. In "A Dream Deferred," Hughes questions what happens when dreams are postponed or ignored, while "The Alchemist" emphasizes the importance of listening to one's heart and following one's personal legend. Both works underscore the transformative power of pursuing one's dreams and the need to take action in order to achieve them.
Its what I took that stopped me from pursuing my dreams.
"It is not true that people stop pursuing dreams because they grow old, they grow old because they stop pursuing dreams"
Dreams are central to The Alchemist's action as well as its meaning. Santiago's dream is the novel's inciting incident (the event that sets the story in motion), and the author's primary message seems to be that we should follow our dreams.
The dreams of the main characters vary but often revolve around achieving success, pursuing love, or finding happiness. These dreams are deferred due to obstacles such as societal expectations, personal shortcomings, or unforeseen circumstances that prevent them from reaching their goals. This creates tension and conflict in the story as characters grapple with the disappointment of their deferred dreams.
The alchemists were the first chemists. But in addition to mixing chemicals, they also believed that magic would help with their experiments and formulas. It didn't. But their experiments led to the development of the science of chemistry.
The Alchemist, which was written by Paulo Coelho, revolved around a boy that dreams about Egypt. It is also about his journey and the people he meets while on his way to Egypt.

The phrase "the world's greatest lie" can be found in the book "The Alchemist" on page 22. Santiago learns from the old king that the lie is that people believe they cannot achieve their dreams.
it was Joseph(Yosef) who was in a prison and interpreted pharaoh's dream
The boy met the gypsy in the town of Tarifa, at a local festival. The gypsy was said to be skilled in interpreting dreams.
chasing your dreams means pursuing a dream, doing what it takes to acheive it, being determined and really wanting to achieve it. :)
