The alchemist uses dreams and expresses them in a way that any spiritual society would. Dreams connecting to the soul of the world would be a strange concept in today's society, people would be confused at hearing the world had a soul and that anyone can access it. Our society is built on the sad concept of the privileged are a treasure and the malnourished are a burden; while in the alchemist all people are respected as equals in the sense of potential.

The sheep in these quotes represent the people of a nation. If a nation takes care of its people the people forget how to survive without it. There are also many stories that compare people to sheep and their leader to a shepherd. He keeps the sheep for his traveling knowing they need him for survival and that he needs them to keep himself mentally stable. He also personifies the sheep more than once saying that one of his sheep that is lame is the smartest and produces the most wool. His behavior is not strange or out of the ordinary in any way; people fine animals or inanimate objects and gives them personality when they’re alone or away from society.
