“Friends are God's way of apologizing for your family.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“if we focus on what's ugly, we attract more ugliness into our thoughts, and then into our emotions, and ultimately into our lives”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“ان أي شئ تريد ان تحققة يعتبر حقيقة موجودة قائمة و حاضرة فى الروح حرر عقلك من الافكار الخاصة بالشروط و القيود او احتمال عدم القدرة على تجلي و اظهار رغباتك . ان بقيت الرغبات و الافكار قائمة في عقلك بدون ان يزعجها شئ وكذلك في النية في نفس الوقت فسوف تتحول هذه الافكار و الرغبات الى واقع في العالم المادي”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“When you’re connected to the power of intention, everywhere you go, and everyone you meet, is affected by you and the energy you radiate. As you become the power of intention, you’ll see your dreams being fulfilled almost magically, and you’ll see yourself creating huge ripples in the energy fields of others by your presence and nothing more.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of the mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“You feel good not because the world is right, but your world is right because you feel good.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“Remove all unloving thoughts from your mind, and practice kindness in all of your thoughts, words, and actions. Cultivate”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“When you shift to an abundance mind-set, you repeat to yourself over and over again that you’re unlimited because you emanated from the inexhaustible supply of intention. As this picture solidifies, you begin to act on this attitude of unbending intent. There’s no other possibility. We become what we think about, and as Emerson reminded us: “The ancestor to every action is a thought.” As these thoughts of plentitude and excessive sufficiency become your way of thinking, the all-creating force to which you’re always connected will begin to work with you, in harmony with your thoughts, just as it worked with you in harmony with your thoughts of scarcity. If you think you can’t manifest abundance into your life, you’ll see intention agreeing with you, and assisting you in the fulfillment of meager expectations!”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“In the universe there is an immeasurable, indescribable force which shamans call intent, and absolutely everything that exists in the entire cosmos is attached to intent by a connecting link.” — Carlos Castaneda”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“if you aren’t doing what you love and loving what you do, your power of intention is weakened. You attract into your life more of the dissatisfaction that isn’t the face of love. Consequently, more of what you don’t love will appear in your life.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“By choosing to hang on to one’s corner of freedom even in the worst situations, we can process our world with the energy of appreciation and beauty, and create an opportunity to transcend our circumstances.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“A man cannot be comfortable without his own approval.” — Mark Twain”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“It’s through giving that we receive; it’s through acts of kindness directed toward others that our immune systems are strengthened and even our serotonin levels increased!”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“You get what you intend to create by being in harmony with the power of intention, which is responsible for all of creation.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“Extend thoughts of kindness everywhere. Practice kindness toward Earth by picking up a piece of litter that’s on your path, or saying a silent prayer of gratitude for the existence of rain, the color of flowers, or even the paper you hold in your hand that was donated by a tree. The universe responds in kind to what you elect to radiate outward. If you say with kindness in your voice and in your heart, “How may I serve you?” the universe’s response will be, “How may I serve you as well?” It’s attractor energy. It’s this spirit of cooperation with all of life that emerges from the essence of intention. And this spirit of kindness is one that you must learn to match if connecting back to intention is your desire.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“The artist creates something out of nothing! Without the thoughts and feelings of the artist, there would be no art. It’s their particular creative mind in contemplation that links to intention to give birth to what we call an artistic creation. This is how the power of intention worked in creating you, someone new, entirely unique, someone out of nothing. Reproducing this in yourself means encountering the creative impulse and knowing that the power of intention is reaching for the realization of all that it feels, and that it is expressing itself as you.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“Thomas Edison said, “Genius is one percent inspiration, and ninety-nine percent perspiration.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“That is, tapping in to the essence of originating Spirit, emulating the attributes of the creative force of intention, and manifesting into your life anything that you desire that’s consistent with the universal mind—which is creativity, kindness, love, beauty, expansion, abundance, and peaceful receptivity.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“Dormant forces, faculties, and talents come alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“But there’s no actual stress or anxiety in the world; it’s your thoughts that create these false beliefs.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“Intent is a force that exists in the universe. When sorcerers (those who live of the Source) beckon intent, it comes to them and sets up the path for attainment, which means that sorcerers always accomplish what they set out to do.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“My intention is for all of my activities to be directed by Spirit. My intention is to love and radiate my love to my writing and any who might read these words. My intention is to trust in what comes through me and to be a vehicle of Spirit, judging none of it. My intention is to recognize the Spirit as my Source and to detach from my ego. My intention is to do all that I can to elevate the collective consciousness to be more closely in rapport with the Spirit of the originating supreme power of intention.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“Combining Free Will with Intention In mathematics, two angles that are said to coincide fit together perfectly. The word coincidence does not describe luck or mistakes. It describes that which fits together perfectly. By combining free will with intention, you harmonize with the universal mind. Rather than operating in your own mind outside of this force called intention, your goal may very well be, as you read this book, to work at being in harmony at all times with intention. When life appears to be working against you, when your luck is down, when the supposedly wrong people show up, or when you slip up and return to old, self-defeating habits, recognize the signs that you’re out of harmony with intention. You can and will reconnect in a way that will bring you into alignment with your own purpose.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“In order to float an idea into your reality, you must be willing to do a somersault into the inconceivable and land on your feet, contemplating what you want instead of what you don’t have.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“You’ll only give away what you have in your heart, and”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“Until you transcend the ego, you can do nothing but add to the insanity of the world.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“Always keep the thought of God’s abundance in mind. If any other thought comes, replace it with that of God’s abundance. Remind yourself every day that the universe can’t be miserly; it can’t be wanting. It holds nothing but abundance, or as St. Paul stated so perfectly, “God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance.” Repeat these ideas on abundance until they radiate as your inner truth.”
― Wayne W. Dyer, quote from The Power of Intention: Learning to Co-create Your World Your Way
“All our lives we postpone everything that can be postponed; perhaps we all have the certainty, deep inside, that we are immortal and sooner or later every man will do everything, know all there is to know.”
― Jorge Luis Borges, quote from Collected Fictions
“The motions of her mind were as incalculable as the flit of a bird in the branches”
― Edith Wharton, quote from Ethan Frome
“Emilia," he says, and when he does, it warms me to my soul. "Every day you save me.”
― Katja Millay, quote from The Sea of Tranquility
“I know how it feels, dear one. As if your heart were torn in two. I feel your pain.”
I took a deep breath. Another.
“Finbar?”
“I know how it feels. As if you will never be whole again.”
I reached inside my dress, where I wore two cords about my neck. One held my wedding ring; the other the amulet that had once been my mother’s. I left the one, and took off the other. “This is yours. Take it back. Take it back, it was to you she gave it.”
I slipped the cord over his head, and the little carven stone with its ash tree sign lay on his breast. He had grown painfully thin.
“Show me the other. The other talisman you wear.”
Slowly I took out the carven ring, and lifted it on my palm for my brother to see.
“He made this for you? Him with the golden hair, and the eyes that devour”?
“Not him. Another.” Images were strong in my mind; Red with his arm around me like a shield; Red cutting up and apple; Red kicking a sword from a man’s hand, and catching it in his own; Red barefoot on the sand with the sea around his ankles.
“You risked much, to give your love to such a one.”
I stared at him. “Love?”
“Did you not know, until now, when you must say goodbye?”
― Juliet Marillier, quote from Daughter of the Forest
“She had challenged him on this point one night at Anne and George's, inhibitions weakened by Ronrico: "Explain this Mass to me!"
There was a silence as he sat still, apparently looking at the dinner plates and chicken bones. "Consider the Star of David," he said quietly. "Two triangles, one pointing down, one pointing up. I find this a powerful image—the Divine reaching down, humanity reaching upward. And in the center, an intersection, where the Divine and human meet. The Mass takes place in that space." His eyes lifted and met hers: a look of lucid candor. "I understand it as a place where the Divine and the human are one. And as a promise, perhaps. That God will reach toward us if we reach toward Him, that we and our most ordinary human acts—like eating bread and drinking wine—can be transformed and made sacred.”
― Mary Doria Russell, quote from The Sparrow
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.
