�ber diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

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.

Anbieterinformationen

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
