“The very fact that you can even wonder if you’re going crazy means you very likely aren’t crazy. Real nuts don’t question their own nuttiness. They think they’re the only normal ones. That’s why they’re nuts.”
― Jayne Ann Krentz, quote from Absolutely, Positively
“Molly gave him a questioning smile, revealing two slightly crooked front teeth.”
― Jayne Ann Krentz, quote from Absolutely, Positively
“He had made his decision regarding Molly with great care and consideration.”
― Jayne Ann Krentz, quote from Absolutely, Positively
“Absolute certainty is the greatest of all illusions.”
― Jayne Ann Krentz, quote from Absolutely, Positively

― Jayne Ann Krentz, quote from Absolutely, Positively
“Tessa exchanged a commiserating glance with Molly as the crowd gradually dwindled.”

“Les avares ne croient pas à une vie à venir. Le présent est tout pour eux. Cette réflexion jette une horrible clarté sur l'époque actuelle, où, plus qu'en aucun autre temps, l'argent domine les lois, la politique et les moeurs. Institutions, livres, hommes et doctrines, tout comspire à miner la croyance d'une vie future sur laquelle l'édifice social est appuyé depuis dix-huit cents ans. Maintenant le cercueil est une transition peu redoutée. L'avenir, qui nous attendait par delà le requiem, a été transposé dans le présent. Arriver per fas et nefas au paradis terrestre du luxe et des jouissances vaniteuses, pétrifier son coeur et se macérer le corps en vue de possessions passagères, comme on souffrait le martyre de la vie en vue de biens éternels est la pensé générale! pensée d'ailleurs écrite partout, jusque dans les lois....”
― Honoré de Balzac, quote from Eugénie Grandet
“Nicholas this is one of those 'yes' or 'no' questions again. You seem to have a problem with those. Did you or did you not kill a woman - Jo”

“This is my command: Love each other.”
― quote from Holy Bible: New Living Translation
“Giyinmek için kalktığımda üzerimi bir keyifsizlik kaplamıştı. Şehvet ve orgazm geçmişti. Film bitip izleyiciler toplu halde çıkmaya başladığında, tüm duyduğunuz, eski halini koltukların tıkırtısı, ayak sesleri, temizlenen boğazlardır. Karakterler, öykü ve müzik yok olmuştur. Ama Tian Tian'ın yüzünün beynimde gidiş gelişi bir türlü yok olmayacaktır.”
― Zhou Weihui, quote from Shanghai Baby
“They reached the carriage house. When she turned the knob, he got all critical again. “Why isn’t this door locked?”
“It’s Parrish. There’s not much point.”
“We have crime here, just as any other place does. Keep this door locked from now on.”
“Like that’s going to stop you. All you’d have to do is give it one good kick, and – “
“Not from me, you ninny!”
“I hate to be the one to break the bad news, but if they find my body, you’re the one with the biggest grudge.”
“It’s impossible to hold a rational conversation with you.”

The PeregrineBookQuoters 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.
