―when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.‖
They were said by Tthe king of Salem.This two sentences were the most impreive sentences to me.I got the central theme of the book——pursuing dream.We should believe our dreams, if we have the strong desire to achieve it ,it will be real.When I first read this sentence, I felt a bit ridiculous.It seems like a slogan.However, just like the book told us,‖ When the huge wealth is right in front of us, but we never notice.That is because people don't believe the
treasure is there.‖ We often reject it but never try, and it may be a big psychological obstacle for us to follow our dreams.In my opinion, maybe we should believe what the book told us——when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.Different people have different feelings about the book.As for me, the most impreion I got was the description of dream.Actually, everyone can got his own philosophy.
