Quotes & Excerpts:
So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.

I loved this book, and I cried because I was genuinely touched (no, I don't cry easily). Highly recommended.

Honestly, I have never read a more moving and emotional book than Tuesdays with Morrie. There were points where I had to set the book down, wipe away tears, and regain my composure. Mitch Albom gives a truly remarkable account of his interactions with a truly remarkable human being.

This is a very powerful book about feelings and everyone - especially men - should consider this a staple in their library. The actual footage of Morrie and Ted Koppell really help bring the book to life and a must see for any Tuesday with Morrie fans! READ IT - IT IS WORTH IT!!!!

This is one of the most wonderful books I have had the privilege of reading. Even as a young African-American woman, I could easily understand and appreciate the life lessons taught in this book. It was also a quick read (something any college student loves.) I wholeheartedly recommend Tuesdays with Morrie to anyone with a heart.

This book was wonderful! Beauty of the human spirit was in every chapter, wisdom of age and friendship, laughter that was unexpected and shared joy and sadness in the being of Morrie, and the passing of Morrie.

Tuesdays with Morrie was given to me as a gift by my dearest friend, and it moved me so much I have decided to give it to everyone I know on their birthdays this year. Everyone can find a spot for Tuesdays with Morrie on their bookcase.

Great book!
Review written by: Golden JJ From
This book became one of my favorites ever. The story is not just about death but about life. As soon as you start reading this "Tuesdays with Morrie" you will start comparing Morrie's, Mitch's, and your life. Very inspiring. I recommended this book to many of my friends and they just fell in love. There are also YouTube videos showing real Morrie's interviews and DVD so check them out, too. Enjoy!
Loved it

Read it, you will understand why it was on the best sellers list. Great book to read again. I always enjoy it. I love all of Mitch Albom's Books.
A must read
Review written by: Locolako From
A very heartwarming read that will make you want to be there in the story. That makes you want to have experienced the story first hand and to have also met Morrie.
It is not the happiest story in the world and is generally sad, though it is in the best way. Morrie talks about his lessons and hopefully you take time to think about what he says.
Last lectures with Morrie
Review written by: CSPM From
This book is one of the most inspirational book on life I have ever read. It was released in 2002 but I just read it a month ago. This book is a philosophical insight about life written with simple rudimentary English language that every person can understand. If you want a perspective on the meaning of life, read this book.
Love each other or PERISH
Review written by: T. Mulyono From
This book is truly inspiring me, even the film itself has touched so many people, filmed by Oprah Winfrey, written by Mitch Albom, and inspired by Morrie Schwartz's wisdom. More importantly, This is a true story !
The story start from Mitch Albom, he was too busy with his works and suddenly he watched his best lecture on TV, Morrie Schwartz, that he never met him in 16 years, dying with his disease, ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis). After thinking and discussing with his wife, he went to Morrie's House .Furthermore, he made an appointment every Tuesday that he would come and write Morrie's lesson on life, World, Feeling Sorry, Regrets, Family, Marriage, Fear of Aging, Money, Culture, Forgiveness, and Death. Later on, this book has sold 11 millions in print worldwide.
I remembered Morrie remarked that "Love each other or Perish." This is a rare book about life, about how to make this world, society, family, even yourself to be happy. A must have for those who want to live a meaningful life.
