Just because this could be fun... I read this recently on a random blog and it's kind of a fun little exercise and could be a fun way to find some interesting books.
Meme 123
Directions:
1) Pick up the nearest book.
2) Open it to page 123.
3) Find the fifth sentence.
4) Post the next three sentences.
5) Pass the meme on to five more people, and acknowledge the person who tagged you.

From Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert (not my current read, but the one closest to my hand at the moment)
Page 123 sentences 6-8
The turnips, the bedbugs, the coral -- they never get a chance to find out who they really are. But we do have that chance.
"Our whole business therefore in this life," wrote Saint Augustine, rather Yogically, 'is to restore to health the eye of the heart whereby God may be seen."

Quotes to consider...
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."
-Albert Einstein

-- Henry Ward Beecher
It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped. -- Anthony Robbins
We don't stop playing because we grow old; We grow old because we stop playing. -- George Bernard Shaw
An adventure is only an inconvenience rightly considered. An inconvenience is an adventure wrongly considered. -- GK Chesterton
The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson
For most of history, Anonymous was a woman. -- Virginia Woolf
A friend is someone who will help you move. A real friend is someone who will help you move a body. -- anon
The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory. -- Paul Fix
For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
