“There is no substitute for energy,” Schumacher said in 1964, echoing Jevons, the nineteenth-century economist and celebrator of coal. “The whole edifice of modern life is built upon it. Although energy can be bought and sold like any other commodity, it is not ‘just another commodity,’ but the precondition of all commodities, a basic factor equally with air, water and earth.” Schumacher argued vigorously for the use of coal to supply the world’s energy needs. Oil, he believed, was a finite resource”

“Trong giọng hát của Phương như đều đều hơi thở tâm hồn của một lớp thanh niên được sinh ra ở đời chỉ cốt dành cho cuộc chiến tranh bắt đầu từ ngày hôm ấy. Trên khuôn mặt nghiêm nghị của một trong ba người linh nước mắt nặng nề ứa ra dưới cặp lông mày nhíu lại. Chiến tranh! Chiến tranh! ấy chính là tiếng gầm của biển trong suốt đêm bốn rạng mồng năm tháng tám. Bãi cát dài hình vòng cung ầm ầm sóng xô. Đột ngột hai đốm lửa bay chéo ra từ cùng một điểm trên trời tách thành hai làn chớp biếc vụt sa xuống.

“You should expect to hear the same thing from me in about five minutes,” he murmured.
“Five minutes, huh?”
“I’ll make it the best five minutes of your life.”
I bit his lip, hard, then released him and looked into those intense blues. “Clock’s ticking.”

ElfinBookQuoters 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.
