Five Quotes From Famous Books
Relatably

When we were young, when we started school and even now books have come a long way. Even certain quotes tend to be repeated from other people cause those words mean something to people. Here are five quotes I thought were and probably still popular today.

1.

This quote comes from a classic children's book Love You Forever, and is actually a song. The main reason this could be a favorite quote is it could be stuck in your head one day and all you can do is sing it. Another could be you have to tuck your child in at night (or the child you are watching over) and you need a song to help them sleep. This quote may be the one for you.

2.

Everyone knows this classic book from your childhood, James and the Giant Peach. Majority of these quotes may be repeated daily since this book got turned into a movie so many years ago! This quote really gets me because overthinking is a thing for me and probably a lot of you but what this grasshopper tell James is true; no kid can really think of so much reality at once.

3.

If you had to read any recommended book in high school, To Kill A Mockingbird might of been that first book. Every quote from this book may bore you to pieces but they can convoy meaning. This quote can describe anything you want it to but no matter how much high school students dread this book the quotes are powerful in the end.

4.

Another book high school kids probably hated with a passion, Lord of the Flies. However, they read the book for one second and they just want to put it down. Those who actually liked it and thought it made sense, then these quotes were for them. This quote really describes how life is today; you don't know what to expect so you're making it up as you go along. I mean, who doesn't do that now in days?

5.

This might everyone's favorite book that turned into a movie, The Perks of Being a Wallflower. Most of these quotes were mentioned repeatedly once people saw the movie. Who would blame them, popular movie quotes always get mentioned over and over until the next one. This quote about love couldn't be anymore true; whatever love is to you, you have every right to accept it. From the smallest to the largest acts, it doesn't matter! Love isn't easy so it's your job to figure it out.

Popular books give you quotes to get you thinking about life and the lessons you can learn. If you didn't realize that now, then here you go, you learn something new everyday!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
