“Un guerrero se define por momentos", dijo Aiden. "Un solo momento puede hacerte un guerrero. Un guerrero se define también por las decisiones. Por su coraje. Pero un guerrero también es alguien normal. No puedes ser un guerrero a cada momento. Pero, el espíritu de un guerrero siempre está presente.”
― Morgan Rice, quote from Desired
“Tienes que elegir", dijo Aiden. "Puedes quedarte aquí, renunciar a la misión, y vivir una vida feliz con Caleb. Será una vida del corazón. Pero no del espíritu. Hemos sido traídos a este planeta para elegir entre dos vidas: una vida del corazón, o una vida del espíritu. Nuestro corazón nos puede atar a las cuestiones domésticas. Pero nuestro espíritu debe elevarse. Debe seguir su vocación.”
― Morgan Rice, quote from Desired
“Tu mayor fortaleza es también tu mayor debilidad", dijo. "Tu pasión. Tu furia. No estoy diciendo que no deberías haber golpeado a Caín. Lo que estoy diciendo es que no deberías haberte golpeado a ti misma.”
― Morgan Rice, quote from Desired
“Tu peor enemigo eres tú mismo.”
― Morgan Rice, quote from Desired
“Ningún lugar es hermoso si estás atrapado en él,”
― Morgan Rice, quote from Desired
“Furniture, my good husband," she said, her mouth full of food, "that be too pretty is without pure thought. Tables with turned and carved legs only encourage the devil to dine."
My father stared at her, bewildered.
This house needs to be made ready for the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, for when he returns to our fair city and takes his rightful place as king, he'll be needing a good meal in a godly home. Do not you agree, husband?"
My father was speechless. Maud, in no way put off by his silence, said, "He will be very hungry. It has been a long time since the Last Supper.”
― Sally Gardner, quote from I, Coriander
“And here is the thing about them men they was Australians they knew full well the terror of the unyielding law the historic memory of UNFAIRNESS were in their blood and a man might be a bank clerk or an overseer he might never have been lagged for nothing but still he knew in his heart what it were to be forced to wear the white hood in prison he knew what it were to be lashed for looking a warder in the eye and even a posh fellow like the Moth had breathed that air so the knowledge of unfairness were deep in his bone and marrow.”
― Peter Carey, quote from True History of the Kelly Gang
“There is a connection to all living things, a vibration of Life. Animals were not given a power of choice. A lion does not try to eat legumes nor an elephant meat. We believe the best way to communicate with nature, God, is through a liaison: the animals.”
― quote from Modoc: The True Story of the Greatest Elephant That Ever Lived
“Make sure you marry a plain man, Tessa. They won't stray, and they'll never have power over you.”
― Richelle Mead, quote from Gameboard of the Gods
“but frankly I don’t care what Alayna thinks of me just as long as she thinks of me at all.”
― Laurelin Paige, quote from Hudson
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.
