“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.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Ja pilsētu bombardējam mēs, tad tā ir stratēģiska nepieciešamība; ja to dara citi, tad neģēlīga noziedzība.”

“- 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
“Šodien katrs domā par sevi. Pārāk daudz pasaulē nelaimes.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Вчера времени еще было много. А завтра нам будет казаться, что сегодня было много.”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from A Time to Love and a Time to Die
“Laikam gan katrs kādam bija labs cilvēks. Un kādam tieši pretēji.”
― 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.”

“We,” she repeated, laughing as though both hurt and astounded. “It really is ‘we’ now, isn’t it?” With a shy, even scared, smile, she helped him pull free his weathered robes. “When I can’t find you,” he said, “or even when you turn away, I feel … I feel hollow, as though my heart’s a thing of smoke … Isn’t that ‘we’?”
― R. Scott Bakker, quote from The Warrior Prophet
“started to sit up, but his hand snaked around my stomach and pulled me back to him. “You should try to get some more sleep,” he said. “I can’t,” I said. “Not until this is over.” He sat up beside me, taking my hand in his and quickly kissing the back of it before suggesting, “Run?” The man knows me. I glanced out the small window. The sun was yet to appear on the horizon and rain fell lightly, but the wind had eased for now. I beamed. “Coffee first.” He laughed as he stood up and tossed me a T-shirt. “Coffee first.” And it turns out, even when the world might be about to end, a girl can still swoon.”

“so little time to enjoy all that life and the world had to offer. Why would they waste even a moment of their precious time on someone who didn’t appreciate and treat them well?”
― Lynsay Sands, quote from Vampire Most Wanted
“I didn't hear you come in. I was away with the ghosts of my beautiful youth.”
― Eva Rice, quote from The Lost Art of Keeping Secrets
“He probably wanted real power, the power to direct one's environment towards a harmonious end, and not fictitious power, the power to order and be obeyed; and he must have known that he had not been able to exercise real power over Rome. It would have been easier for him if what we were told when we were young was true, and that the decay of Rome was due to immorality. Life, however, is never as simple as that, and human beings rarely so potent.
There is so little difference between the extent to which any large number of people indulge in sexual intercourse, when they indulge in it without inhibitions and when they indulge in it with inhibitions, that it cannot often be a determining factor in history. The exceptional person may be an ascetic or a debauchee, but the average man finds celibacy and sexual excess equally difficult. All we know of Roman immorality teaches us that absolute power is a poison, and that the Romans, being fundamentally an inartistic people, had a taste for pornography which they often gratified in the description of individuals and families on which that poison had worked.”
― Rebecca West, quote from Black Lamb and Grey Falcon

Specimen DaysBookQuoters 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.
