Gabi Rupp

Rupp's book is perfect as a gift book especially at Valentine's Day or an engagegement or wedding anniversary. The quotes are well chosen by writers and sages you'd expect, but also the unexpected such as John Mayer. What intrigued me the most was the love quotes under categories of Force, Irrationality, and Madness which makes you really think. This is a small volume, but one you need to digest slowly and ponder and would be excellent to use as discussion starters with your loved one.

Everyone possesses at least one friend. This book is perfect in describing what that friendship is fundamentally about. Also containing some amazing quotes of the do's and don'ts of friendship. This is a book that would make a splendid gift but make sure to get a copy for yourself. My opinion is that you must buy the actual book. Purchasing an e-book gives you the ability to read the quotes, but you will lose out on the superb pictures and the quality of the book. In the front of the book is show more a special area to write the name of the person receiving it plus who the book is from also enough space for a little note. Nice touch Gabi. Inspirational Picture Quotes about Friendship is more than just a book it is something special to be given between friends. Quotes arise from people of all walks of life. Copious authors such as C.S. Lewis, who wrote the Chronicles of Narnia; philosophers; Pascal, who did wonders for math as a mathematician and physicist; a Rabbi; politicians including Hubert Humphrey the U.S.A's 38th Vice President; a Spanish Jesuit; musician; my favorite since I am from Detroit Henry Ford who founded the Ford Motor Company; plus many more. Front-runner of quotes for me is by Alice Walker "No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow". This is a breathtaking book meant to be had by everyone and anyone.

Received this free book in exchange for an honest review.

..."Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, What! You too? I thought I was the only one.
-C.S. Lewis."

Well, this was a little jewel I wasn't expecting. When I downloaded it, I noticed it was not long, so I read it during my lunch hour. I will be keeping this on my iphone so that I can come back to it when I need a 'feel good" lift.

I was aware this was a book of quotes about Friendship, but the photography was show more a total surprise. The photography, inspired by nature, is exceptional. I was familiar with some of the quotes, but many were new for me. Even the familiar quotes seemed new because the photography greatly enhances the presentation.

Take your time reading this... it will linger in your mind when you are done. show less

When we face obstacles and treat them as challenges rather than problems we find the stepping-stones into a new horizon. Being alive and more importantly knowing you are aware and alive comes through gratitude. Rupp’s little book gives us images and quotes as reminders. I particularly liked the quote from Meister Eckhart, the Middle-German mystic, “If the only prayer you said in your whole life was ‘thank you,’ that would suffice. It is something we may forget in our instant access show more and throwaway society. show less
