   Hi, Anton Shepelev : Michael Dukelsky!   
   I read your message from 05.03.2019 00:27   
      
    MD>> What is the benefit of reading  English  translations  from  other   
    MD>> languages and not books written in English?   
      
    AS> I sometimes read translations from my native  Russian  that  I  may   
    AS> better translate myself (double meaning intended).   
      
    MD>> I'd understand it if the book were really a good  literature.  But   
    MD>> from  my  point  of  view  Althemist  is  not,  it  is  more  like   
    MD>> graphomania.   
      
    AS> One aphorism from The Alchemist,  "Once you make  a  decision,  the   
    AS> universe conspires to make it happen", is often attributed to Ralph   
    AS> Waldo Emerson,  but I did not find it in  any  of  his  essays.  If   
    AS> Coelho wrote it himself, he is not so bad at all at all!   
      
   In my opinion, the phrase is a sweet lie for those who wants hear it. It is   
   unnatural, as the idea that a person can freely buy a flock of sheep and graze   
   them in any part of the country... without being beaten by the land owners and   
   local shepherds. ;-)   
      
   Bye, Anton!
