“You were not mass-produced like a Toyota. You are an original. Not a copy! You were handcrafted and handmade by God, who took his time to create you, making you “wonderfully complex.” You’re unique. You’re special. You’re one of a kind. There is no one else quite like you, dead or alive, in the whole world. Nor will there ever be.”
― Pedro Okoro, quote from The Ultimate Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for Victory!
“God isn’t asking you to fight the devil. He is asking you to simply uphold or sustain the victory won by
Jesus at Calvary and enforce his authority over the devil. You’re like the traffic warden who raises his hand and the vehicles stop. They don’t stop because he can physically bring the
vehicles to a halt, but because he is representing and upholding the authority of the state.”
― Pedro Okoro, quote from The Ultimate Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for Victory!
“To stand against the enemy is to rest in what Jesus has already done.”

“Don’t attempt to fight the enemy in your own strength. You will experience burnout, and you will fail. Don’t even think about it! The key is to engage in spiritual warfare God’s way. And that is by resting in him and fighting from victory, not for victory!”
― Pedro Okoro, quote from The Ultimate Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for Victory!

― Pedro Okoro, quote from The Ultimate Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for Victory!
“Spiritual warfare is real. But you’ve got to realise that you shouldn’t be fighting a battle you’ve already won! That’s right. You defeated the devil in Christ more than two thousand years ago. You were nailed to the cross of Calvary in him. This became a reality for you the day you received Jesus into your heart as your Saviour and Lord.”
― Pedro Okoro, quote from The Ultimate Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for Victory!
“You’ve got to always remember that the devil is a defeated foe. The battle has been won. You don’t need to fight him. So what do you do? You simply stand and exercise your authority. All you’ve got to do is exercise your authority.”
― Pedro Okoro, quote from The Ultimate Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for Victory!
“In the great Bible passage on spiritual warfare, the word stand appears four times, while the word translated wrestle, battle, fight, or struggle appears only once. In essence, God is asking you to spend the majority of your time in warfare standing!”
― Pedro Okoro, quote from The Ultimate Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for Victory!
“Although there’s only one way to heaven (through Jesus Christ), there are a million and one ways to crush the devil!”
― Pedro Okoro, quote from The Ultimate Guide to Spiritual Warfare: Learn to Fight from Victory, Not for Victory!
“As for Republicanism, no analogy could be found for it upon the face of the earth—unless we except the case of the "prairie dogs," an exception which seems to demonstrate, if anything, that democracy is a very admirable form of government—for dogs.”
― Edgar Allan Poe, quote from Tales of Mystery and Imagination
“She sleeps. And now she wakes each day a little less. And, each day, takes less and less nourishment, as if grudging the least moment of wakefulness, for, from the movement under her eyelids, and the somnolent gestures of her hands and feet, it seems as if her dreams grow more urgent and intense, as if the life she lives in the closed world of dreams is now about to possess her utterly, as if her small, increasingly reluctant wakenings were an interpretation of some more vital existence, so she is loath to spend even those necessary moments of wakefulness with us, wakings strange as her sleepings. Her marvellous fate - a sleep more lifelike than the living, a dream which consumes the world.
'And, sir,' concluded Fevvers, in a voice that now took on the sombre, majestic tones of a great organ, 'we do believe . . . her dream will be the coming century.
'And, oh, God . . . how frequently she weeps!”
― Angela Carter, quote from Nights at the Circus
“...pushing through her own feeling of panic to find what Kane was trying to communicate to her. It was a bit of a jumble and she strained to make sense of it, finally grasping a repeated thread: I love you. Be ready.”
― Nicky Charles, quote from The Mating
“Thoughts are ephemeral, they evaporate in the moment they occur, unless they are given action and material form. Wishes and intentions, the same. Meaningless, unless they impel you to one choice or another, some deed or course of action, however insignificant. Thoughts that lead to action can be dangerous. Thoughts that do not, mean less than nothing.”
― Ann Leckie, quote from Ancillary Justice
“It’s not funny, Kacey!” I hiss. “That guy forced himself on me!”
She rolls her eyes but then, after a long pause, she sighs. “Yeah, you’re right.” Reaching over, she pinches the guy’s arm without hesitation. “Hey, buddy!”
“You do that to her again and I’ll sneak into your room and rip your balls off while you sleep, capisce?” she warns with a pointed finger. Most times my sister’s threats involve the mutilation of testicles.”
― K.A. Tucker, quote from One Tiny Lie
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.
