“Le rodeó la cintura con un brazo, con un nudo en la garganta.
—¿De veras?
—De veras. —Apoyó la frente en la de él con tierno afecto y le tomó el rostro entre las manos—. Has sido tú quien me ha enseñado que la vida no está grabada en piedra. Somos aquello en lo que nosotros mismos nos convertimos.
Su fe en él le desgarraba, convirtiéndole en un hombre mejor.”

“إن الروح كما وردت فى الفكر الإغريقى كان لها أصل دينى دون أن يكون هذا الأصل مسيحياً .. وبدا فيما يتعلق بالإغريق أن الروح ظهرت أول ما ظهرت فى تعاليم أتباع فيثاغورث الذين آمنوا بالتناسخ وتطلعوا إلى الخلاث النهائى الذى يتلخص فى التحرر من عبودية المادة التى أصبح لزاماً على الروح أن تعانى منها مادامت حبيسة الجسد. ومارس أتباع فيثاغورث نفوذهم على أفلاطون ثم أثر أفلاطون بدوره على آباء الكنيسة. وهكذا أصبح المذهب القائل بانفصال الروح عن الجسد جزء لا يتجزأ من العقيدة المسيحية. ثم تدخلت مؤثرات أخرى أبرزها تأثير أرسطو والرواقيين، ولكن الأفلاطونية بالذات وخاصة فى أشكالها اللاحقة أصبحت أهم عنصر وثنى فى الفلسفة التى أرساها آباء الكنيسة.”

He punctuated his intense words with firm presses of his arousal into her pelvis. She moaned and writhed with the pleasurable sensations arising and struggled to free her captive arms,but he held her fast. He moved his lips along her neck and shoulders, tenderly nibbling and sucking”

The Power of Vulnera...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.
