The Alchemist (Coelho)

Does The Alchemist Support The Idea, "Suffering is an important part of attaining your dreams or goals"?

I need a quote from The Alchemist agreeing or disagreeing with the idea, "Suffering is an important part of attaining your dreams or goals." Page number and chapter are helpful, but not required.

Santiago had to suffer to find his way. I think suffering is inherent in life and it is seldom that any enlightenment comes without suffering. The author certainly thinks that risk and chance are essential to find one's way. Sufferring is always a part of this process.
