“It will always be yes..." I whispered, lightly kissing his lips...
"I will always be yours..." I continued, kissing along his jaw line...
"And I will always be by your side..." I finished kissing his neck.”
― Laury Falter, quote from Reckoning
“I am in love with you, Magdalene. What I feel for you is timeless. And when I die, when this body releases me, I will find you and I will be your eternal protector.”
― Laury Falter, quote from Reckoning
“I'll see you soon," he whispered, the lump in his throat rising again to jar the release of his sigh. He swallowed once more and said, "But it won't be soon enough.”
― Laury Falter, quote from Reckoning
“Then we spoke the words together. "For all eternity, my life.”
― Laury Falter, quote from Reckoning
“Paula, there is something you need to know with absolute lucidity. It is your choices that have brought you to this point. You are here because of your actions. You will be leaving because of your actions. I am simply the messenger.”
― Laury Falter, quote from Reckoning
“Second, this is not my wife. She would not resort to self-pity when she is needed most. Now wipe off the tears and go find her…because I love her and I want her back.”

“I knew then the answer to my question; the question I’d asked myself many times during this war, and many more times since it ended. When would I be able to put the war behind me? When would I be able to forget it? And I knew now that the answer was simple.
Never. I never would. Some things end. But war never does.”
― John Marsden, quote from The Other Side of Dawn
“The Lord came, not to remove our suffering, but to show us the way through it to the glory beyond.”
― Stephen R. Lawhead, quote from Byzantium
“إن الذنب بالمعنى المألوف دينيا ودنيويا لا يفهم إلا في إطار البناء الشمولي للمجتمع وهو بناء ينتمي للنموذج التملكي لوجودنا, حيث مركزنا الإنساني لا يوجد في داخلنا, ولكنه موجود في السلطة التي نخضع لها, وحيث نحقق الرفاهية من خلال نشاطنا الذاتي الخلاق, ولكن بالطاعة السلبية للسلطة, ومن ثم استحسانها لما نفعل, ونحن نملك قائدا دنيويا او روحيا, ملكا او ملكة او راعي كنيسة ونملك ايمانا به, ومن ثم نملك الأمن والأمان طالما نحن لا شيء, اي لا كيان مستقل لنا, قد لا نكون واعيين بخضوعنا للسلطة إلى هذا الحد وقد تكون السلطة في مظهرها صارمة أو قد تكون رقيقة, وقد لا يكون البناء الاجتماعي مكتمل الشمولية.. ولكن كل هذا يجب ألا يجعلنا غافلين عن حقيقة أننا نعيش في النمط التملكي إلى الدرجة التي صار البناء الشمولي لمجتمعنا جزءا من ذاتنا واصبح مبدأ داخليا هاديا لمشاعرنا وسلوكنا.
ونحن نتفق مع الفونس أوير حين يؤكد بوضوح أن رؤية توما الأكويني للسلطة وعدم الطاعة والخطيئة هي رؤية تتفق تماما مع النزعة الانسانية, حيث يذهب إلى أن الخروج على سلطة غير عقلانية ليس ذنبا أو إثما, وإنما الإثم يكون في انتهاك الحياة الانسانية الكريمة.
"لا يمكن أن نسيء إلى الرب إلا إذا كانت أفعالنا انتهاكا لحياتنا وكرامتنا نحن".”

“Quand on me demande pourquoi je fume, je réponds que c'est parce que j'aime tousser.”

A Promise of FireBookQuoters 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.
