“Аз съм добра майка. Мисля за всичко, което може да им се случи. Предвиждам всяка възможна злополука. А да не говоря за опасностите, които ще ги грозят, когато пораснат. Или когато излязат от градината. Не. Тези опасности си ги запазвам за после. Казах вече. Че за тях ще мисля после. Имам време. Имам време. Засега има толкова катастрофи, които трябва да предположа, толкова катастрофи. Обичам ги, защото мисля за най-лошото, което може да им се случи. За да го предвидя, за да го предвидя. Не за удоволствие мисля за кървави страхотии. Те сами ми се налагат. Това доказва, че държа на децата. Отговорна съм за тях. Те зависят от мене. Те са мои деца. Трябва да направя всичко, зависещо от мен, за да предотвратя безбройните беди, които ги дебнат. Тези ангелчета. Неспособни да се защитят, да разберат кое е добро за тях. Обичам ги. За тяхно добро мисля за всичко това. Не ми прави ни какво удоволствие. Потръпвам при мисълта, че могат да хапнат отровни плодове, да седнат на влажната трева, да ги удари откършен клон, да паднат в кладенеца, да се търкулнат от високия бряг, да глътнат камък, да ги ухапе мравка, пчела, бръмбар, да ги клъвне птица или да се одраскат в къпинака, да помиришат прекалено силно някое цвета и да има влезе листенце в нова, да го запуши, той да се възпали, възпалението да се пренесе в мозъка, да умрат толкова мънички, ето, падат в кладенеца, давят се, един клин се стоварва върху главите им, стъклото се чупва, кръв, кръв…
Тя не издържаше повече. Стана и безшумно отиде в стаята на децата. Седна на един стол. Оттам ги виждаше и трите. Те спяха, спяха, без да сънуват. Лека-полека и тя се унесе със свито сърце в тревожен сън. От време на време се стряскаше в съня си като куче, което мисли за глутницата.”
― Boris Vian, quote from Heartsnatcher
“I did a research assignment on life in the Middle Ages only last year. I found the era fascinating, all that chivalry and court romance. But I never pictured anything as poor as this village. This is the pits. There's no romance here, definitely no chivary. And it stinks--of sweat and smoke and sewage.”
― Marianne Curley, quote from Old Magic
“[Death is] to lose the earth you know, for greater knowing; to lose the life you have, for greater life; to leave the friends you loved, for greater loving; to find a land more kind than home, more large than earth.” —THOMAS WOLFE, YOU CAN’T GO HOME AGAIN”
― Wiley Cash, quote from A Land More Kind Than Home
“In these days Melissa's absorbed and provoking gentleness had all the qualities of a rediscovered youth. Her long uncertain fingers - I used to feel them moving over my face when she thought I slept, as if to memorize the happiness we had shared. In her there was a pliancy, a resilience which was Oriental - a passion to serve. My shabby clothes - the way she picked up a dirty shirt seemed to engulf it with an overflowing solicitude; in the morning I found my razor beautifully cleaned and even the toothpaste laid upon the brush in readiness. Her care for me was a goad, provoking me to give my life some sort of shape and style that might match the simplicity of hers. Of her experiences in love she would never speak, turning from them with a weariness and distaste which suggested that they had been born of necessity rather than desire. She paid me the comlpiment of saying: "For the first time I am not afraid to be light-headed or foolish with a man".”

The GiftingBookQuoters 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.
