“Top tip 4: Somtimes you're lying when you say nothing at all”
“Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened. And if you can't do that, force a smile on your face and sob into your pillow later.”
“I should have been braver myself, shown you it's okay to get hurt along the way.”
“Being happy means you've decided to accept the imperfections and get on with it anyway.”
“We don't have control over our lives. We just have control over how we take things.”
“Number 40: Love is worth the risk.”
“An elite confederacy of nerds. My peeps”
“And here's my advice to you. If you get the chance of the mad kind of love, grab it with both hands, and to hell with the consequences.”
“Lissa looked taken aback, but Jared Sage—my father-in-law now, I realized―showed nothing but contempt. 'This is ridiculous. Humans and Moroi can't be married. That's your way, as well as ours. This isn’t a real marriage.'
'Not according to the state of Nevada,' I said cheerfully. 'We’ve got the paperwork to prove it. Get us a laptop, and we can all look at the wedding pictures together.”
“A true plague of a girl. And yet a queen in every sense of the word.”
“Katsa and Po were trying to drown each other and, judging from their hoots of laughter, enjoying it immensely.”
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.
