1. This quote is from the book 'Who moved my cheese'.
It is safer to search in the Maze than to remain in a cheeseless situation.
It means it is better to move on in life and try again rather than sitting and blaming the situation.
This Quote is from the book 'The Alchemist':

2. one great truth on this planet: whoever you are, or whatever it is that you do, when you really want something, it's because that desire originated in the soul of the universe. It's your mission on earth.And, when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.

Most of my favourite quotes are obviously from Harry Potter.
It's a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit of speeding up.
If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.
Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open.
It was, he thought, the difference between being dragged into the arena to face a battle to the death and walking into the arena with your head held high. Some people, perhaps, would say that there was little to choose between the two ways, but Dumbledore knew - and so do I, thought Harry, with a rush of fierce pride, and so did my parents - that there was all the difference in the world.
It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise that they wear it well.
Other than that, I do love these quotes by Oscar Wilde.
Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.
Illusion is the first of all pleasures.
Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone elses opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.

'Had we but world enough and time' is the first line of the poem 'To His Coy Mistress' by Andrew Marvell. Brilliant poem!

there was a quote in the book, the forbidden daughter by Shobhan Bantwal it glued to me and at the sametime brought tears 2 my eyes.

Maybe cuz i'm a girl but, it killed me thinking what an impact it has on someone else I dont even know.

The quote I believed went (sorry I cant remember it entirely since I'm kinda recoverin 4rm a fever)

I'd rather die a million painful deaths but, God don't return me to this Earth as a Girl.

From Spirit Bound by Richelle Mead:

"Love Fades. Mine has."

This quote made me cry, the tone was so powerful when Dimitri said this to Rose.

I think it is true in a way- I mean you won't love the same person for your whole life, whether it be a partner or a best friend. I know many people think you can- but most won't.

This part stuck out to me most in the book,but to understand why, you'd have to read the book (I REALLY recommend it). They shared the most powerful of moments in the Church and that's where he ends it.
