― 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

“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

― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1

― Neale Donald Walsch, quote from Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue, Book 1

― James Agee, quote from A Death in the Family


“After a while Mary said, “Zsadist?”

“Yeah?”

“What are those markings?”

His frowned and flicked his eyes over to her, thinking, as if she didn’t know? But then . . . well, she had been a human. Maybe she didn’t. “They’re slave bands. I was . . . a slave.”

“Did it hurt when they were put on you?”

“Yes.”

“Did the same person who cut your face give them to you?”

“No, my owner’s hellren did that. My owner . . . she put the bands on me. He was the one who cut my face.”

“How long were you a slave?”

“A hundred years.”

“How did you get free?”

“Phury. Phury got me out. That’s how he lost his leg.”

“Were you hurt while you were a slave?”

Z swallowed hard. “Yes.”

“Do you still think about it?”

“Yes.” He looked down at his hands, which suddenly were in pain for some reason. Oh, right. He’d made two
fists and was squeezing them so tightly his fingers were about to snap off at the knuckles.

“Does slavery still happen?”

“No. Wrath outlawed it. As a mating gift to me and Bella.”

“What kind of slave were you?”

Zsadist shut his eyes. Ah, yes, the question he didn’t want to answer. For a while it was all he could do to force himself to stay in the chair. But then, in a falsely level voice, he said,
“I was a blood slave. I was used by a female for blood.”

The quiet after he spoke bore down on him, a tangible weight.

“Zsadist? Can I put my hand on your back?”

His head did something that was evidently a nod, because Mary’s gentle palm came down lightly on his
shoulder blade. She moved it in a slow, easy circle.

“Those are the right answers,” she said. “All of them.”

He had to blink fast as the fire in the furnace’s window became blurry. “You think?” he said hoarsely.

“No. I know.”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Father Mine


“I do not want a boy. I only want Monseigneur!”
― Georgette Heyer, quote from These Old Shades


“What the problem was was this colossal redundancy, the squandering of brilliant technique on cheap material, ...”
― Alan Hollinghurst, quote from The Line of Beauty

About BookQuoters

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.
