“As an investor you can be well above average by settling for slightly less than the index returns.”
― quote from The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing
“One-Eye scowled at Goblin. “Keep it up, Barf Bag. You’ll be grocery shopping with the turtles.” What the hell did that mean? Some kind of obscure shop talk? But Goblin was as croggled as the rest of us. Grinning, One-Eye resumed gabbling with his relatives.”
― Glen Cook, quote from The Books of the South
“منذ اولمبياد العام 1936 التي نظمها هتلر كان الرياضيون الفائزون ينتعلون احذية تظهر عليها خطوط ماركة اديداس الثلاثة. و في بطولة العلم بكرة القدم عام 1990 كانت خطوط اديداس تظهر على الاحذيو و على كل شيء اخر. و قد لاحظ صحفيان انجليزيان هما سيمسون و جينينغس ان الشيء الوحيد الذي لم يكن للشركة في المباراة النهائية بين المانيا و الارجنتين هو صافرة الحكم. و قد كانت الكرة و كل ما يغطي اجساد اللاعبين و الحكم و حكام التماس من ماركة اديداس”
― Eduardo Galeano, quote from Soccer in Sun and Shadow
“Fate had already done everything it could to torment her.”
― Judith McNaught, quote from Someone to Watch Over Me
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.
