“Take a minute: look at your goals, look at your performance, see if your behavior matches your goals.”

“Goals begin behaviors, consequences maintain them.”
“The people who work with you as their manager will look to you as one of their sources of wisdom”
“Effective managers,” he thought, “manage themselves and the people they work with
so that both the organization and the people profit from their presence.”
“The best minute I spend is the one I invest in people.”
“الناس تحتاج أن ترتبط بمن يهتمون بهم، ليشعروا بأنهم مقبولون وذوو قيمة لمجرد أنهم بشر (..) أيضاً أن الناس يحتاجون إلى معين ليجدوا من يهتم بهم، عندما يجانبهم الصواب ص 91”
“If you can´t tell me what you'd like to be happening, you don't have a problem yet. You're just complaining. A problem only exists if there is a difference between what is actually happening and what you desire to be happening.”
“When I first came to work her i spotted a problem that needed to be solved, but I didn't know what to do. So I called the One Minute Manager. When he answered the phone, I said, Sir, I have a problem. Befor I could get another word out, he said, Good! That's what you've been hired to solve.”

“I have endured, and now I am ready to conquer.”
“When there was a crack in something it only widened if you didn’t tend to it. Let it go long enough, a crack became a break, and you had a hell of a mess on your hands.”
“It was as though nobody had considered the possibility that he might die, not even Muhammad himself.”
“She’d felt … comfortable with Elend. Looking back on the experience, she realized that for those few moments, she hadn’t really been Lady Valette. Nor had she been Vin, for that part of her—the timid crewmember—was almost as fake as Valette was. No, she’d simply been … whoever she was.”
“Well, sometimes, right in the middle of everyday life, love gives you a fairy tale when you least expect it.”
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.
