“therefore i live for today-
certain of finding at sunrise
guidance and strength for the way.
power for each moment of weakness,
hope for each moment of pain,
comfort for every sorrow,
sunshine and joy after rain!”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Remember: He WANTS your fellowship, and He has done everything possible to make it a reality. He has forgiven your sins, at the cost of His own dear Son. He has given you His Word, and the priceless privilege of prayer and worship.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Only God can give us a selfless love for others, as the Holy Spirit changes us from within. This is one reason we must receive Christ, for apart from His Spirit we can never be freed from the chains of selfishness, jealousy, and indifference. Will others see Christ's love in your life today?”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“your faith and hope are in god.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“You cannot come to Christ unless the Spirit of God brings you. But what if you ignore His warnings? Then you are in the gravest danger, for some day God will no longer be speaking to you. Then it will be too late. Come to Christ while there is still time. Christ, God's greater Ark, stands ready to welcome you to safety today.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“If God were to remove all evil from our world (but somehow leave human beings on the planet), it would mean that the essence of 'humanness' would be destroyed. We would become robots.
Let me explain what I mean by this. If God eliminated evil by programming us to perform only good acts, we would lose this distinguishing mark - the ability to make choices. We would no longer be free moral agents. We would be reduced to the status of robots.
Let's take this a step further. Robots do not love. God created us with the capacity to love. Love is based upon one's right to choose to love. We cannot force others to love us. We can make them serve us or obey us. But true love is founded upon one's freedom to choose to respond.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Some people have a warped idea of living the Christian life. Seeing talented, successful Christians, they attempt to imitate them. For them, the grass on the other side of the fence is always greener. But when they discover that their own gifts are different or their contributions are more modest (or even invisible), they collapse in discouragement and overlook genuine opportunities that are open to them. They have forgotten that they are here to serve Christ, not themselves.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“It is not easy to shut out the world, set aside a few minutes by yourself, and spend time in God’s Word and prayer. But it is essential if we are to grow in our relationship with God and be strengthened for the battles ahead. Don’t delay. Begin now to spend time alone with God every day.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Nothing but God ever completely satisfies, because the soul was made for God. Don’t starve your soul.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Abraham Lincoln said, “I am profitably engaged in reading the Bible. Take all of this Book upon reason that you can and the balance upon faith, and you will live and die a better man.” Coleridge said he believed the Bible to be the Word of God because, as he put it, “It finds me.” “If you want encouragement,” John Bunyan wrote, “entertain the promises.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Each of us experiences clouds in life—sometimes slight, but sometimes dark and frightening. Whatever clouds you face today, ask Jesus, the light of the world, to help you look behind the cloud to see His glory and His plans for you.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“God knows far better than we do what is best for us. Thank God even when He says “No” or “Wait.” His answer is always perfect.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“GOD’S PLANS ARE BEST As for God, His way is perfect. PSALM 18:30”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“JANUARY 11 FAITH GROWS BY EXPRESSION You are the light of the world. MATTHEW 5:14 Tom Allan, Scotland’s famous preacher, was brought to Christ while a soldier was singing, “Were you there when they crucified my Lord?” He said it was neither the song nor the voice, but the spirit in which that soldier sang—something about his manner, something about his sincerity of expression—that convicted Allan of his wicked life and turned him to the Savior. Jesus said, “You are the light of the world. . . . Let your light so shine before [others], that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matt. 5:14, 16). Our faith becomes stronger as we express it; a growing faith is a sharing faith. Pray now for those you know who need Christ, and ask God to help you be a witness to them—by the life you live and the words you speak. JANUARY 12 ALL FOR JESUS We are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. 1 JOHN 5:20 In His Steps, by Charles M. Sheldon, tells of a challenge given by a pastor to his people to pledge for one year not to do anything without first asking the question: “What would Jesus do?” This challenge was kindled when a shabby man, mourning his wife who”

“Only surrendered Christians will make an impact on our world. The world does not need any more lukewarm Christians, or lazy Christians, or quarrelsome Christians, or doubting Christians, or prideful Christians.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Repentance is only one part of our response to Christ (and even the strength to repent comes from God). But it is an essential part, for without it we cannot claim Christ is our Lord. The Bible says, “Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret” (2 Cor. 7:10 NIV).”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Things don’t always work out the way we plan. But if we commit our way to Christ and walk in obedience to Him, we discover His plans are always better.”
― Billy Graham, quote from Hope for Each Day: Words of Wisdom and Faith
“Whatever is worrying you right now, give it to Jesus and trust Him to take care of it. Let His peace replace your worry.”

“Do you know what passion is?”
I blink, confused.
“Most people think it only means desire. Arousal. Wild abandon. But that’s not all. The word derives from the Latin. It means suffering. Submission. Pain and pleasure, Nikki. Passion.”
― J. Kenner, quote from Release Me
“Es interesante la novela que relata los hechos del monstruo de Frankenstein. Por lo general, cuando un monstruo rompe platos, hay cierta tendencia a atribuir esto al instinto destructor del monstruo, pero la autora de dicha novela procede al contrario, y da la siguiente interpretación al tema: es que los platos son frágiles de por sí; y él, como monstruo, sólo pretendía acallar su soledad, pero era la fragilidad de sus víctimas la que inevitablemente lo convertía en un malhechor”

“My mouth drops when she slides his hoodie off and pushes her fingers into his dark locks that are cut short on the sides, but left longer on top. Not too long, just enough to grab a hold of. I’ve been waiting months and she’s known him for thirty-seconds and is already touching him. He says something to her causing her to nod as he takes her hand and leads them off the dance floor. “Where’s he going?” I ask again.”

Perfect YouBookQuoters 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.
