“Eliza sitting naked on a pink towel. So beautiful I could die.
Concentrating, all focused in on her sketchbook, but aw, god ...her tail.
Her cute little tail moving slowly back and forth, making a fan shape in the dirt.
She's the one. She really is. I know that now.”
― Charles Burns, quote from Black Hole
“That was all I needed when she smiled at me, all the other stupid, ugly stuff just drifted away.”
― Charles Burns, quote from Black Hole

― Charles Burns, quote from Black Hole
“That night was different... there was something pulling me towards him. Something dark and sexy.”
― Charles Burns, quote from Black Hole

In a Glass GrimmlyBookQuoters 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.
