The Quotable Spirit: A Treasury of Religious and Spiritual Quotations from Ancient Times to the Twentieth Century - Hardcover
Synopsis
Spanning centuries, continents, and cultures, this treasury of more than 2,000 religious and spiritual quotations brings together a remarkably diverse collection of more than 500 writers and their memorable words. Here one will find the spiritual masters, religious leaders, gurus, sadhus, and wise men and women of every time, place, and faith.
Selections from the great organized religions of Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Taoism, and Hinduism are presented side by side with words of wisdom from extraordinary individuals: Buddha, Jesus, and Mohammed; Mother Teresa and Chief Seattle; Alan Watts and Ramana Maharshi; Emily Dickinson and Dorothy Parker; Krishnamurti and Lao-tzu.
In addition to familiar names and sources, The Quotable Spirit includes much that will be new to most readers. Over a twenty-year period, the editors traveled to obscure libraries and spiritual centers throughout the world, gathering material written by authors and teachers thousands of years ago in remote kingdoms.
Organized thematically into more than forty topics, from Angels and Beauty to Wisdom and World, The Quotable Spirit lists quotations chronologically and includes a brief notation of the author and source of each piece. A table of contents, alphabetically organized by theme, and an expanded biographical index make this a practical, easy-to-use reference.
