“Then answer me this...how can you know the good without the understanding of evil? How can you know happiness without experiencing the misery, pleasure without the pain? These things are essential parts of life that need to be faced and endured.”
― quote from Afterlife

― quote from Afterlife
“Ever since the incident I hadn’t shown any skin on my arms. I just couldn’t bear the questions that would follow and pity was not what I needed. So I kept my scars concealed at all times, it was bad enough for my eyes to have to see them as a constant reminder.”
― quote from Afterlife
“Then, if that was to be taken away, you wouldn't be you, right? You would be someone else's idea of you...do you understand?” He asked as I must have looked confused. “Yeah I get it, so what you’re saying is that we would all be like puppets.” “Yes, something like that. You must understand that God gave life, but that is your gift to do with it how you choose to live it. He does not dictate how you do this, nor does he negate your decisions. You must realise that he is neutral when it comes to your free will, you are a product of your own choices and this sometimes, no matter how”
― quote from Afterlife
“but it had been the truth. I was the only one who didn't stand out. I played”

“energy going on, you must be happy.” Rue said as she came up behind”
― quote from Afterlife
“Родена съм в Цейлон през 1916 година, във времето, когато духовете ходеха по земята също като хората. Беше преди ослепителният блясък на електричеството и шумът на цивилизацията да ги прогонят в тъмните недра на горите. Те обитаваха огромни дървета, изпълнени с хладни синьо-зелени сенки. В пъстрото безмълвие човек можеше да се пресегне и почти да почувства тихото им присъствие, тъй като те копнееха да си възвърнат физическия образ. Ако се появеше неотложна нужда да се облекчим, докато пресичаме джунглата, трябваше да изречем молитва и да поискаме от тях разрешение още преди изпражненията ни да докоснат земята, тъй като те бяха много обидчиви. Нарушаването на самотата им беше извинението, което използваха, за да се вселят в неканения гост. Да вървят с неговите крака.”
― Rani Manicka, quote from The Rice Mother
“I looked into her eyes. "Mom, who do you pray to?"
I just pray, Daniel. That's all.”

Anissa's RedemptionBookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.
We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.
Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
