― Rochelle Maya Callen, quote from Ashes and Ice

And she tried to kill me.
Now that is some messed up shit right now.”

“Siamo tutti responsabili delle nostre esistenze... e dobbiamo vivere con le conseguenze delle scelte che facciamo.”

“I mentally began composing a list of words that began with F: Frey. Father. False. Friend. Frick. Frack. And some others.”
― Rick Riordan, quote from The Ship of the Dead
“A lovely, pure, noble, and most moral nature, without the strength of nerve which forms a hero, sinks beneath a burden which it cannot bear, and must not cast away. All duties are holy for him; the present is too hard. Impossibilities have been required of him; not in themselves impossibilities, but such for him. He winds, and turns, and torments himself; he advances and recoils, is ever put in mind, ever puts himself in mind; at last does all but lose his purpose from his thoughts; yet still without recovering his peace of mind.”
― Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, quote from Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship
“Certainly, no fact in the long history of the world is so startling as the wide and repeated exterminations of its inhabitants.”

One of Us Is LyingBookQuoters 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.
