“We choose this. This place. This life. What it will be, and how we live it. We are not slaves to gods, or fate, or destinies woven in veils of smoke. We choose the people we want to be, and we choose the shape of the world in which we live. Nothing worthwhile comes without sacrifice. There is nothing so easy as swimming with the current, nothing so difficult as being the first to stand up. To say no. To point at a thing wrong and name it so. There are none so brave as those who choose to stand, when all others are content to kneel. None so worthy of the title 'hero' as those who fight when there are none to see it. Who choose a life bereft of accolade or fanfare, a life of struggle for the idea that we are all the same. Every one of us. And every one of us has the right to be happy. To know peace. To know love.”
― Jay Kristoff, quote from Endsinger
“When God justifies a sinner, everything in God is on the sinner's side. All the attributes of God are on the sinner's side. It isn't that mercy is pleading for the sinner and justice is trying to beat him to death. All of God does all that God does.”
― A.W. Tozer, quote from The Attributes of God: A Journey Into the Father's Heart
“Bir dakika bekle, " dedi Naturelle. Mutfağa gidince Monty de gözleri kapalı bir halde, ağırlığını bir ayağından diğerine aktararak beklemeye koyuldu. Mutfaktaki musluktan sanki uzaklardan bir yerlerden bir alkış sesi geliyormuşçasına su damlıyordu. Naturelle elinde bir torba dolusu buzla gelip, torbayı Monty'nin yanağına bastırmasını işaret etti. Bir süre hiç kıpırdamadılar. Naturelle elini Monty'ninkinin üzerine koyup, bir süre bekledi.
Monty kadının kendisine sımsıkı sarılmasını, kulağına kimsenin kendilerini bulamayacağı bir yer bildiğini fısıldamasını diliyordu. Ona arkasından geleceğine, Otisville' de bir iş bulup her hafta onu ziyaret edeceğine söz vermesini istiyordu. Yedi senenin kötü bir rüya gibi geçeceğini sonra yeniden birbirlerine kavuşacaklarını, önlerinde daha upuzun bir ömür olduğunu, filan söylemesini bekliyordu.
Naturelle hiçbir şey söylemedi Monty de öyle. Sonunda Monty baş sallayıp, dönerek kapıyı arkasından kapattı. Poşeti ters çevirip içindeki buzların üç kat aşağı düşüşünü izledi. Sonra poşeti cebine koydu.”
― David Benioff, quote from The 25th Hour
“Love is more than an emotion. It’s a choice. Feeling love is one thing. Showing love is quite another.”
― Gena Showalter, quote from Burning Dawn
“The modest acknowledge their mistakes. The wise both confess to their failures and vow to never repeat them. But it takes a strong warrior to forgive herself as well.”

Pale Horse, Pale Rid...BookQuoters is a community of passionate readers who enjoy sharing the most meaningful, memorable and interesting quotes from great books. As the world communicates more and more via texts, memes and sound bytes, short but profound quotes from books have become more relevant and important. For some of us a quote becomes a mantra, a goal or a philosophy by which we live. For all of us, quotes are a great way to remember a book and to carry with us the author’s best ideas.
We thoughtfully gather quotes from our favorite books, both classic and current, and choose the ones that are most thought-provoking. Each quote represents a book that is interesting, well written and has potential to enhance the reader’s life. We also accept submissions from our visitors and will select the quotes we feel are most appealing to the BookQuoters community.
Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books. Books are seen by some as a throwback to a previous world; conversely, gleaning the main ideas of a book via a quote or a quick summary is typical of the Information Age but is a habit disdained by some diehard readers. We feel that we have the best of both worlds at BookQuoters; we read books cover-to-cover but offer you some of the highlights. We hope you’ll join us.
