                                    ― E.K. Johnston, quote from Ahsoka
                                
                                
                                    “You have to remember every piece that's been played, even the ones removed from the board, because some of them might count against you in the end.”

                                    “When Ahsoka opened her hands, she was not surprised to find that two lightsabers, rough and unfinished, were waiting. They would need more work, but they were hers. When she turned them on, they shone the brightest white.”
                                    
                                    
                                    ― E.K. Johnston, quote from Ahsoka
                                
                                
                                    “She gave him a smile. It felt absurdly nice to be taken care of. Maybe that was what she needed, even if she didn’t need it very often.”
                                    
                                    
                                    ― E.K. Johnston, quote from Ahsoka
                                
                                
                                    “When he had the dream on Alderaan, he would get Leia out of her bed, hold her close to his chest, and hope against hope that she exhibited only her mother's gifts, not her father's.”
                                    
                                    
                                    ― E.K. Johnston, quote from Ahsoka
                                
                                
 
                                
                                
                                “The destruction of something beautiful can appear so entertaining.”
                                
                                
                                    ― Thomas Sweeney, quote from The Harem
                                
                            
                                “Their belligerence in public places, their rudeness…there’s almost a pride in ignorance here. Black employees refuse to wait on white customers in stores. They treat incompetence as though it’s some kind of act of civil disobedience. I’m sick of it, Penn.”
                                
                                
                                    ― Greg Iles, quote from Turning Angel
                                
                            
                                “Behind this story so far is another story, as behind the girders of an ancient bridge is the skeleton of a child which superstition says keeps the bridge standing.”
                                
                                
                                    ― James Purdy, quote from Narrow Rooms
                                
                            
                                “the breakthrough researcher first discovers the fundamental causal mechanism behind the phenomena of success. This allows those who are looking for “an answer” to get beyond the wings-and-feathers mind-set of copying the attributes of successful companies.”
                                
                                
                                    ― Clayton M. Christensen, quote from The Innovator's Solution: Creating and Sustaining Successful Growth
                                
                            
                                “Here’s to being single…drinking doubles…and seeing triple!”
                                
                                
                                    ― Karen Kondazian, quote from The Whip
                                
                            
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.
