“Aprender una lengua extraña: asimilas nociones de gramática, vocabulario básico y un acento espantoso que apenas sirve para que te entiendan. Te esfuerzas durante años y de repente, sin saber por qué, todo fluye, captas cómo funciona...”

― Corrie ten Boom, quote from Tramp for the Lord
“Dumnezeu a făcut tot ce vedem, Raoul; tot el ne-a zidit și pe noi, bieți atomi rătăciți în acest univers; strălucim ca toate aceste puncte de lumină, ca toate stelele ce spuzesc depărtările, lăsăm să ne scape suspine asemenea valurilor înconjurătoare, suferim ca toate aceste corăbii uriașe ce îmbătrânesc spintecând valurile, plecându-se sub furia vântului ce le călăuzește către o țintă, după cum sufletul lui Dumnezeu ne alungă și pe noi spre cine știe care țărm. Totul se leagă cu dragoste de viață, Raoul, și toate sunt frumoase în mijlocul lucrurilor vii.”
― Alexandre Dumas, quote from The Man in the Iron Mask
“Okay. Let's see..." She considered her past, and then smiled wryly and shook her head. "Well, I was a perfume maker, Amaone, concubine, a duchess, a pirate, a madam, and then a hunter."
Harper's eyebrows had slid up his forehead as she rattled of her resume.”
― Lynsay Sands, quote from The Reluctant Vampire
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.
