“Without thorough training in the sense of self-observation, the days usually go by in a state of fascination with the events of daily life and therefore without one being aware of certain inner states (egos) and harmful actions that may have been present.”
― Belzebuub, quote from The Peace of the Spirit Within: A Guide to Transform Your Life
“It’s vital to learn to use events of life to become aware and to deal with them while watching the egos. This is not easy, but if you persist you will learn to do it.”
― Belzebuub, quote from The Peace of the Spirit Within: A Guide to Transform Your Life
“Self-remembrance is vital to be successful esoterically. It is only in those moments when you remember to do it that an inner work actually takes place. If you consider how often this happens and for how many moments through the day, then you will get some idea of how much you are actually working towards self-knowledge.”
― Belzebuub, quote from The Peace of the Spirit Within: A Guide to Transform Your Life
“Bear in mind that the subconscious is not trying to work things out while dreaming: it is projecting what is there onto the astral plane.”
― Belzebuub, quote from The Peace of the Spirit Within: A Guide to Transform Your Life
“If you progress in this work you will eventually realise that life is a school. In your dreams you may find yourself being taught in a classroom; this is part of the teaching that someone goes through in the higher dimensions.”

“Whatever life you lead you must put your soul in it--to make any sort of success in it; and from the moment you do that it ceases to be romance, I assure you: it becomes grim reality! And you can't always please yourself; you must sometimes please other people. That, I admit, you're very ready to do; but there's another thing that's still more important--you must often displease others. You must always be ready for that--you must never shrink from it. That doesn't suit you at all--you're too fond of admiration, you like to be thought well of. You think we can escape disagreeable duties by taking romantic views--that's your great illusion, my dear. But we can't. You must be prepared on many occasions in life to please no one at all--not even yourself.”

“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Siapa yang akan mengawasi sang pengawas?”
― Dan Brown, quote from Digital Fortress
“Gimme hate, Lord,” he whimpered. “I’ll take hate any day. But don’t give me love. I can’t take no more love, Lord. I can’t carry it...It’s too heavy. Jesus, you know, you know all about it. Ain’t it heavy? Jesus? Ain’t love heavy?”
― Toni Morrison, quote from Song of Solomon
“Throwing herself into learning helped Miri ignore the painful chill of solitude around her.”

“A stimulus is a stimulus. The body doesn't give a damn about the meaning of the stimulus. Whether minnows or communion, the sebaceous glands stand up erect.”

MiseryBookQuoters 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.
