“You speak of giving up my dreams. Have you ever, since Maeve's coven split, had a dream? Have you ever had anything worth dying for?”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm
“You have no sense of what war is like. You have no idea what it means to see those you love fall. You cannot possibly understand what it is to fight for what you believe, and how sometimes you have to fight with words and dreams after all the weapons have been put away. You serve a cold god, surviving on his power for thousands of years without ever living!”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm
“...sifting through our thoughts like children going through colored stones -- optimistic, because although some were too dark and some were too sharp, many glittered like precious gems.”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm
“The inherent dangers of youth will never change. Volatile hearts and ill-advised flirtations can hardly be compared to the hatred and slaughter of war.”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm
“You may come back as soon as your senses have returned.”

“In fact, since no one is perfect, it follows that all great deeds have been accomplished out of imperfection. Yet they were accomplished, somehow, all the same.”
― Lois McMaster Bujold, quote from Mirror Dance
“I had a dilemma. I could find absolutely no good reason to slap the girl standing in the kitchen doorway. And I really wanted one.”
― Myra McEntire, quote from Hourglass
“Vsak medsebojni odnos je del stalne učne dinamike. Ko vplivate drug na drugega, je del te dinamike iluzija. Zaradi te iluzije lahko vsaka duša dojame,kaj mora razumeti, da se bo zdravila. Kot predstava v živo predstavlja položaje, ki so potrebni, da bodo postali celoviti tisti vidiki vaše duše, ki potrebujejo zdravljenje. Z iluzijo se učimo- Pripada osebnosti. Iluzijo boste zapustili, ko boste umrli, ko se boste vrnili domov. Vendar lahko osebnost, ki živi v ljubezni in Luči, ki gleda skozi oči svoje duše, če govorimo metaforično, gleda iluzijo, ne da bi jo hkrati potegnilo vanjo. To je osebnost, ki dopusti, da se avtentična moč izrazi. Iluzija je izjemno tesno povezana s potrebami vsake duše. Vsak položaj je vedno namenjen vsaki osebi, ki jo zadeva. Ne morete naleteti ne in tudi ne boste naleteli- niti za hip ne- na nobeno okoliščino, ki ne bi bila neposredno in takoj namenjena potrebi vaše duše, da se zdravi in dosega celovitost. Iluzijo za vsako dušo ustvarjajo njeni nameni. Zato v iluziji vedno mrgoli najustreznejših izkušenj, s katerimi lahko zdravite svojo dušo. Iluzija je prilagodljiva. To pomeni, da posamezne duše, ki so sodelovale pri nastanku iluzij , nimajo svoje neodvisnosti pri tem, kar je v iluziji ustvarjenega skupaj. Pomeni, da ni zaznave, ki se je ne da pozdraviti, kot tudi ni namena, ki se ga ne da spremeniti ali zamenjati z drugim. Bistvo duhovne psihologije je razumevanje, kako iluzija nastane, kako deluje, razumevanje dinamike, ki leži za njo in vloge, ki jo igra pri evoluciji duše.”
― Gary Zukav, quote from The Seat of the Soul
“One who will offer you his coat when you’re cold or cut you a bloom from his favorite rosebush just because he was thinkin’ about ya while he worked. One who’ll take your sass in good humor and sass you back when ya need it.”
― Karen Witemeyer, quote from To Win Her Heart
“I've never told Liat. About who I am. Do you think ... Maati, can you love someone and not trust them?"
"We're born to odd lives, Otah-kvo," Maati said, sounding suddenly older and more sorrowful. "If we waited for people we trusted, I think we might never love anyone.”

PlainsongBookQuoters 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.
