“It wasn't until we dropped him at his university dormitory and left him there looking touchingly lost and bewildered amid an assortment of cardboard boxes and suitcases in a spartan room not unlike a prison cell that it really hit home that he was vanishing out of our lives and into his own.”

But when their listeners remember the discussion, what matters is simply that X believes a and Y believes b. People then form their judgment on what they think of X and Y.”
― Kim Stanley Robinson, quote from Red Mars

“ان ما يميز المجتمع في العصور الوسطى عن المجتمع الحديث هو نقصه من الحرية الفردية. لقد كان كل فرد من الفترة المبكرة مقيدا بدوره في النظام الاجتماعي. لم تكن امام الانسان سوى فرصة واهنة للتحرك اجتماعيا من طبقة الى اخرى, بل لا يكود يكون قادرا على الحركة حتى جغرافيا من مدينة الى اخرى او من بلد الى آخر. وفيما عدا استثناءات قليلة عليه ان يمكث حيث ولد. بل انه كان في الاغلب غير حر في ان يلبس كما يهوى او ان يأكل كما يشاء. وكان على الاسطى ان يبع حسب سعر معين وكان على الفلاح ان يبيع عند مكان معين. وكان محرما على عضو النقابة ان يفشي اية اسرار تقنية خاصة بالانتاج لاي فرد ليس عضوا في نقابته وكان مرغما على ان يدع زملاءه من اعضاء نقابته يشاركونه في اية عملية شراء مفيدة للمادة الخام. لقد هيمنت على الحياة الشخصية والاقتصادية والاجتماعية قواعد والزامات لم يفلت منها من الناحية العملية اي مجال من مجالات النشاط.”
― Erich Fromm, quote from Escape from Freedom

“I mean who knew the man had sperm with super powers that could just swoop on in, rescue and repair a broken womb like a damn superhero?”
― K. Bromberg, quote from Crashed

“They to whom a boy comes asking, Who am I, and what am I to be? have need of ever so much care. Each word in answer may prove to the after-life what each finger-touch of the artist is to the clay he is modelling.”
― Lew Wallace, quote from Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ

About BookQuoters

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.
