Top Ten Inspiring Quotes from Books

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly event hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.

Hey, everyone! This week I'm once again participating in Top Ten Tuesday! This week's top ten was top ten inspiring quotes from books.  I love so many quotes, but I had some difficulty locating all of them. In the end I decided to include just these seven. A few of them are about love, a few of them are about life. I hope you enjoy them! Let me know how you like them =)

1. “You can't live your life for other people. You've got to do what's right for you, even if it hurts some people you love.” 

― Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook

2. “Love is needing someone. Love is putting up with someone's bad qualities because they somehow complete you.” 

― Sarah Dessen, This Lullaby

3. “I no longer believed in the idea of soul mates, or love at first sight. But I was beginning to believe that a very few times in your life, if you were lucky, you might meet someone who was exactly right for you. Not because he was perfect, or because you were, but because your combined flaws were arranged in a way that allowed two separate beings to hinge together.” 

― Lisa Kleypas, Blue-Eyed Devil

4. “Becoming fearless isn't the point. That's impossible. It's learning how to control your fear, and how to be free from it.” 

― Veronica Roth, Divergent

5. “Sometimes, Ms. Lane," he said, "one must break with one's past to embrace one's future. It is never an easy thing to do. It is one of the distinguishing characteristics between survivors and victims. Letting go of what was, to survive what is.” 

― Karen Marie Moning, Darkfever

6. "Hope strengthens, fear kills."

― Karen Marie Moning, Fever Series

7. “Many times in life I've regretted the things I've said without thinking. But I've never regretted the things I said nearly as much as the words I left unspoken.” 

― Lisa Kleypas, Sugar Daddy
