“You might as well tell me there was nobody but Adam in the garden when Eve picked the apple. You say your wife was discontented? No woman ever knows she's discontented till some man tells her so. My God! I've seen smash-ups before now; but I never yet saw a marriage dissolved like a business partnership.”
― Edith Wharton, quote from The Custom of the Country
“Per troppi anni sono stato ad ascoltarti piangere la tua condizione di martire e adesso non ne posso più. Tu ti vedi come la paladina di vittime innocenti. Altro nella tua vita non c'è. Non ci sei tu, non ci sono io, non c'è tuo padre. L'unica vera ragione per cui ti accanisci contro ogni bastardo che ti capita a tiro è che tuo padre ti ha fatto del male. Ogni volta che fai condannare qualcuno è un'altro chiodo che conficchi nel cuore del tuo vecchio”
― David Baldacci, quote from Absolute Power
“But if there was a protocol for how to say goodbye to your newly ex-boyfriend's brother, right after you kissed him and probably sent your ex into the arms of his willing ex-girlfriend, I didn't know what it was.”
― Rachel Vincent, quote from Reaper
“The cataract of grief is a longer drop than Niagara, and I guess I've not reached the river of acceptance at the bottom.”

Hard LoveBookQuoters 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.
