“Dann kam Achill das Vieh. Des Mörders Eintritt in den Tempel, der, als er im Eingang stand, verdunkelt wurde. Was wollte dieser Mensch. Was suchte er bewaffnet hier im Tempel. Grässlichster Augenblick: Ich wusst es schon. Dann lachte er. Jedes Haar auf meinem Kopf stand mir zu Berge, und in die Augen meines Bruders trat der reine Schrecken. Ich warf mich über ihn und wurde weggeschoben wie ein Ding aus Nichts [...] Lachend, alles lachend. Ihm an den Hals griff. An die Kehle ging [...] Des Bruders Augen aus den Höhlen quellend. Und in Achills Gesicht die Lust. Die nackte grässliche männliche Lust [...] Nun hob der Feind, das Monstrum, im Anblick der Apollon-Statue sein Schwert und trennte meines Bruders Kopf vom Rumpf.”

“Да замина далеч да си тръгна.
Аз да си тръгна от Нава… Ако зависеше от мен, за нищо на света не бих го направил. В Нава модерните технологии и такива работи не бяха познати, нямаше електричество. За да си светим, използвахме газени лампи. Но в Нава имаше ябълки. Там виждах узряването на плодовете – цветовете се разтваряха и пред очите ми се превръщаха в плод. Не че тук цветовете не се превръщат в плод, ала не го виждаш. И звездите. Безброй. Луната. Помня, че за да пестим газ, понякога се хранехме през нощта на открито – на лунна светлина…
…Имахме огромен двор с ябълкови дървета, череши, нарове, праскови, кайсии и черници. Стените на оградата са от кал и са наистина дебели, повече от един метър. Ядяхме кисело мляко(йогурт), което сами си приготвяхме: подобно е на гръцкото, но е далеч по-хубаво. Имахме крава и две овчици, имахме си поле за отглеждане за жито, което носехме за мелене в мелницата.
Ето това е Нава и ако зависеше от мен, нямаше да я напусна.”

The Face on the Milk...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.
