“Every single day, no matter who you meet in the day - friends, family, work colleagues, strangers - give joy to them. Give a smile or a compliment or kind words or kind actions, but give joy! Do your best to make sure that every single person you meet has a better day because they saw you.”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“Day 5 Look for the gifts in everything, especially when you are facing what appears to be a negative situation. Everything that we attract causes us to grow, which means that ultimately everything is for our own good. Adjusting to a new path and a new direction will require new qualities and strengths, and these qualities are always exactly what we need to acquire in order to accomplish the great things ahead in our life.”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“Your feelings are cosmic communication! The good feelings mean, GOOD FOR YOU. The bad feelings are to get your attention so that you will change what you are focusing on.”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“Resolve to remain as strong, as determined, and as highly enthused during the darkest night of adversity as you are during the sunniest day of prosperity. Do not feel disappointed when things seem disappointing. Keep the eye single upon the same brilliant future regardless of circumstances, conditions, or events. Do not lose heart when things go wrong. Continue undisturbed in your original resolve to make all things go right... “The man who never weakens when things are against him will grow stronger and stronger until all things will delight to be for him. He will finally have all the strength he may desire or need. Be always strong and you will always be stronger.”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“No matter what the odds, we can make this lifetime the best it can be. Think of the story about Morris Goodman in the film of The Secret. Morris lay in hospital completely paralyzed, only able to blink his eyes. But he knew he could still use his mind to visualize, and, against all odds, Morris walked.”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“Never try to compel others to change; leave them free to change naturally and orderly because they want to; and they will want to when they find that your change was worthwhile. “To inspire in others a desire to change for the better is truly noble; but this you can do only by leaving them alone, and becoming more noble yourself.” Christian D. Larson (1874–1954) Mastery of Self”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“It doesn’t matter how many people are thinking negatively about someone; if that person is in joy those thoughts can never reach them, because they are on a different frequency. Instead, all the negative thoughts will multiply and return to the people who were thinking them.”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“Whatever feelings you have within you are attracting your tomorrow. Worry attracts more worry. Anxiety attracts more anxiety. Unhappiness attracts more unhappiness. Dissatisfaction attracts more dissatisfaction.”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“Look for the gifts in everything, especially when you are facing what appears to be a negative situation. Everything that we attract causes us to grow, which means that ultimately everything is for our own good.”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“You can change the path of your life from dark to light or from negative to positive. Every single time you focus on the positive you are bringing more light into your life, and you know that light removes all darkness. Gratitude, love, kind thoughts, words, and actions bring light and eliminate the darkness. Fill your life with the light of positivity!”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“To create your tomorrow, go over your day tonight when you are in bed just before you fall asleep, and feel gratitude for the good moments. If there was something you wanted to happen differently, replay it in your mind the way you wanted it to go. As you fall asleep, say, “I will sleep deeply and wake up full of energy. Tomorrow is going to be the most beautiful day of my life.” Good night!”
― Rhonda Byrne, quote from The Secret Daily Teachings
“He'd learned in the past few months that telling a girl what to wear--even one the size of a golf club--was a bad idea. Histrionics often followed.”
― Kristin Hannah, quote from Home Front
“إن الفرق الأكيد الذي يمكن أن نعقده بين الناس ليس تقسيمهم إلى أذكياء أو أغبياءن وإنما إلى أذكياء وأكثر ذكاءًا فمع الأغبياء نفعل ما نريد، أما الأذكياء فالحل أن نضعهم في خدمتنا، أما الأكثر ذكاءًا، خاصة عندما يكونوا جانبنا، فهم أشد خطورة بشكل جوهرين ولا يمكن أن يتلافوا ذلك، والطريف في الأمر أنهم يقولون لنا باستمرار بتصرفاتهم إن علينا أن نأخذ منهم حذرنا، لكننا عادة لا ننتبه لتحذيراتهم وبعدها علينا أن نتحمل العواقب”
― José Saramago, quote from Seeing
“Chase Jennings, I love you. I love the boy you were and the man that you've become and even when I don't like you at all I still love you because you are you, kind safe and good, because you understand me and are not afraid.”

“Those who ask for mercy,” he answered coldly, “are too weak to deserve it.”
― Drew Karpyshyn, quote from Path of Destruction

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.
