“We are all children of one God and the only thing that separates us is our ego”
“Most of the time our inner voice tries to guide us to ‘Truth’ but we, out of our own vested interests, wish to continue living in our own self-created illusions because it suits our purpose or fulfils our needs.”
“Ego is like a mad elephant which is ridden by our blind heart and blind mind and which ultimately destroys our real selves”
“It is the Master who comes to the door of his student when the student is ready and the Master knows all the truth of his student”
“Life is truly a matter of choices, reactions, and actions...each and every choice is governed by our reactions which in turn affect our actions and consequently the future turn of events”
“I WILL ACCEPT ONLY ONE DEATH.. THAT WILL BE A GIFT FROM GOD...
SO I WILL NOT DIE EVERYDAY.. I WILL LIVE IN JOY TILL THAT DAY, HERE”
“It was incongruous at Coombargana. In a great city such things happen now and then, where people are too strained and hurried to pay much attention to the griefs of others, but in a small rural community like ours, led by wise and tolerant people such as my father and mother, staffed by good types culled and weeded out over the years, such secret, catastrophic griefs do not occur. Troubles at Coombargana had always been small troubles in my lifetime.”
“Kate gave a disdainful wave of her hand. “I poo-poo the chit.” The attendant looked stunned. “You cannot poo-poo the chit!” “I do,” she said solemnly. “I do poo-poo.”
“Ništa u životu, pa ni u umjetnosti, nema sigurno nekog naročitog, a pogotovo ne natprirodnog smisla! U našem životu tako je udešeno da su nam najskupocjeniji trnuci zapravo savršeno besmisleni.”
“a sermon was meant to be like a woman’s skirt, long enough to cover the essentials and short enough to keep one interested!”
“Manticore System's G0 primary and its G2 companion were dim behind her, reduced to two more stars amid millions, for the Junction lay almost seven light-hours from them.”
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.
