“Enlightenment is understanding that there is nowhere to go, nothing to do, and nobody you have to be except exactly who you're being right now.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“What's happening is merely what's happening. How you feel about it is another matter.”

“True masters are those who've chosen to make a life rather than a living.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“All human actions are motivated at their deepest level by two emotions--fear or love. In truth there are only two emotions--only two words in the language of the soul.... Fear wraps our bodies in clothing, love allows us to stand naked. Fear clings to and clutches all that we have, love gives all that we have away. Fear holds close, love holds dear. Fear grasps, love lets go. Fear rankles, love soothes. Fear attacks, love amends.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“Life (as you call it) is an opportunity for you to know experientially what you already know conceptually. You need learn nothing to do this. You need merely remember what you already know, and act on it. ”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“Life is all about mistakes.It is constant change and growth”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“Nothing in this universe occurs by accident.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“people are constantly changing and growing.do not cling to a limited disconnected, negative image of a person in the past.see that person now.your relationship is always live and changing.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“Thought is creative - Fear attracts like energy - Love is all there is.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“Death is never an end, but always a beginning. A death is a door opening, not a door closing.”

“All human actions are motivated at their deepest level by one of two emotions—fear or love.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“Indeed, the Master knows intuitively that passion is the path. It is the way to Self realization. Even in earthly terms it can be fairly said that if you have a passion for nothing, you have no life at all.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“Words may help you understand something. Experience allows you to know. Yet there are some things you cannot experience. So I have given you other tools of knowing. And these are called feelings. And so too, thoughts.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“The world's natural calamities and disasters-its tornados and hurricanes, volcanoes and floods-its physical turmoil-are not created by us specifically.
What is created by us is the degree to which these events touch our life”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“I’ve searched for the path to God all my life— I know you have— —and now I’ve found it and I can’t believe it. It feels like I’m sitting here, writing this to myself. You are.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“احساس عشق کامل به رنگ سفید شبیه است. بسیاری گمان میکنند که سفید به معنای بی رنگی ست, در حالی که سفید تمامی رنگ ها را در بر دارد. سفید از ترکیب همه رنگ ها ایجاد می شود. به همین ترتیب عشق نیز فقدان احساساتی از قبیل تنفر, خشم,شهوت,حسادت و پنهانکاری نیست, بلکه حاصل جمع تمامی احساس هاست; حاصل جمع هر آنچه که هست.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“Every action taken by human beings is based in love or fear, not simply those dealing with relationships.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“There is only one purpose for all of life, and that is for you and all that lives to experience fullest glory.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“For you are the creator of your reality, and life can show up no other way for you than that way in which you think it will.”
― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1
“You hate the very source of your life, it’s ultimate basis—for there’s no denying it, ‘sex is fundamental. And you hate it, hate it.’ ‘Me?’ It was a novel accusation. Spandrell was accustomed to hearing himself blamed for his excessive love of women and the sensual pleasures. ‘Not only you. All these people.’ With a jerk of his head he indicated the other diners. ‘And all the respectable ones too. Practically everyone. It’s the disease of modern man. I call it Jesus’s disease on the analogy of Bright’s disease. Or rather Jesus’s and Newton’s disease; for the scientists are as much responsible as the Christians. So are the big business men, for that matter. It’s Jesus’s and Newton’s and Henry Ford’s disease. Between them, the three have pretty well killed us. Ripped the life out of our bodies and stuffed us with hatred.’ Rampion”
― Aldous Huxley, quote from Point Counter Point
“When it's all over, you're remembered for what you did, not what you said you were going to do.”
― Jodi Picoult, quote from Salem Falls
“The Roman Road is the greatest monument ever raised to human liberty by a noble and generous people. It runs across mountain, marsh and river. It is built broad, straight and firm. It joins city with city and nation with nation. It is tens of thousands of miles long, and always thronged with grateful travellers. And while the Great Pyramid, a few hundred feet high and wide, awes sight-seers to silence—though it is only the rifled tomb of an ignoble corpse and a monument of oppression and misery, so that no doubt in viewing it you may still seem to hear the crack of the taskmaster's whip and the squeals and groans of the poor workmen struggling to set a huge block of stone into position——”
― Robert Graves, quote from Claudius the God and His Wife Messalina
“Livvie's screams rent the air. James flinched at the sound, but Caleb's blood sang. I am both men. - Caleb”
― C.J. Roberts, quote from Epilogue
“The person that I had been existed no longer. If I had been able to conjure him up and speak to him he would not have listened to me and, if he had, would not have understood what I said. He was like someone whom I had known once, but he was no part of me.”
― Sadegh Hedayat, quote from The Blind Owl
BookQuoters 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.
