“Предимството на човек , който дълго е тънел в калта е че за него всичко е така ново и възбуждащо, като че ли го преживява за първи път. Всичко- дори една чаша или една бяла покривка”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“He’s afraid," Graber said.
"Yes, naturally. But he’s a good dog."
"And a man-eater."
"We’re all that."
"Why?"
"We are. And we think, just like that dog, that we are still good. And just like him we are looking for a bit of warmth and light and friendship.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Страхуваме се от собствените си чувства. А когота ги почувстваме, веднага мислим, че сме измамници.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“- Връащам ви книгата за Швейцария.
- Не биваше да я спасявате. Мечтите не бива да се спасяват.
- Напротив. - каза Гребер - Какво друго, ако не те?
- Вярата. Мечтите се раждат отново.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Jautāt otram nozīmē vēl joprojām izvairīties no izšķirošā spieduma. Es gan arī īstenībā negaidīju atbildi no jums. Būtībā esmu jautājis tikai pats sev. Bet dažbrīd to var izdarīt, tikai jautājot otram.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Cilvēks var būt atbildīgs vienīgi par to, ko pats nodarījis. Un arī tikai tad, ja tas nav darīts pēc pavēles.”

“- Jūs smaidāt. Un esat tik mierīgs. Kāpēc jūs nebrēcat?

― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“- Vai katrā ziņā kaut kam arvien jābūt patiesībai?
- Laikam ne. Kāpēc?
- Es nezinu. Bet iespējams, ka būtu mazāk karu, ja cilvēki tik ļoti negribētu pārliecināt cits citu par savas personiskās patiesības pareizību.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Tu netrīci. Dzīvība tevī trīc. Tam nav nekāda sakara ar drosmi. Drosme cilvēkam ir tad, kad tas var pretoties. Viss pārējais ir dižošanās. Mūsu dzīvība ir saprātīgāka nekā mēs paši.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Nachts ist man das, was man eigentlich sein soll; nicht das, was man geworden ist.”

― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die

― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die

― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die

― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die

― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“- Dažbrīd cilvēks pavisam aizmirst, ka viņš dzīvo.
- Es gan to arvien apzinos. Tikai nezinu lāgā, ko ar to iesākt.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Re nu, kādi mēs esam! Baidāmies savu jūtu. Un, tiklīdz tās samanām, tā tūlīt domājam, ka esam krāpnieki.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Sasprindzinājums bija izzudis, un viņš jutās kā cilvēks, kurš pavisam nejauši uzdrošinājies uzkāpt uz plāna ledus un sev par lielu pārsteigumu redz, ka tas nelūst. Viņš zina, ka tas ir plāns un ka ilgi varbūt neizturēs, bet pašlaik tas tur, un ar to pietiek.”

“Once, while cleaning the trout before I went home in the almost night, I had a vision of going over to the poor graveyard and gathering up grass and fruit jars and tin cans and markers and wilted flowers and bugs and weeds and clods and going home and putting a hook in the vise and tying a fly with all that stuff and then going outside and casting it up into the sky, watching it float over clouds and then into the evening star.
(from Trout Fishing on the Bevel, page 21)”
― Richard Brautigan, quote from Trout Fishing in America / The Pill vs. the Springhill Mine Disaster / In Watermelon Sugar
“He was tired and full of shame, and if Ernestino and the others wouldn’t brave this rain, he would go it alone, he would find some place to sing, some place where, anonymous and numbed by drink, he could sing until he had forgotten everything.”
― Anne Rice, quote from Cry to Heaven
“The nymphs in green? Delightful girls.’ ‘It is clear you have been a great while at sea, to call those sandy-haired coarse-featured pimply short-necked thick-fingered vulgar-minded lubricious blockheads by such a name. Nymphs, forsooth. If they were nymphs, they must have had their being in a tolerably rank and stagnant pool: the wench on my left had an ill breath, and turning for relief I found her sister had a worse; and the upper garment of neither was free from reproach. Worse lay below, I make no doubt.”
― Patrick O'Brian, quote from H.M.S. Surprise
“feet—“Charlotte.” Someone inside was using her”

“It was a gringo; in the remote corners of the world the short-sleeved flowered tourist shirt, the steel-rimmed glasses, khaki pants and bulldog shoes had become the uniform of earnest American enterprise. Moon recognized the man as the new missionary. His head was cropped too close, so that his white skull gleamed, and the red skin of his neck and jaw was riddled with old acne; his face was bald with anxiety and tiresome small agonies.”
― Peter Matthiessen, quote from At Play in the Fields of the Lord

Too LateBookQuoters 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.
