“Dok su prilazili vratima kolibe, Pag reče: "Čogana, hvala ti. Ali zanima me jedno: pomenuo si neprijatelja na vrhu kule. Možeš li mi ga opisati?"
Čogana se nasmeja i klimnu glavom. "Oh da, video sam ga." On krenu uz stepenice prema kolibi, i dalje se kikoćući. "To je najstrašniji neprijatelj svakog čoveka." Suženim očima osmotri Paga. "Bio si to ti.”

“Honesty was a tough customer... Once you started allowing yourself some honesty, it couldn't easily be contained or limited to one part of your life. It was like poison ivy or a bossy houseguest. Once it was there, you couldn't tell it what to do. You had to really fight to keep it from taking over. ”
― Ann Brashares, quote from The Last Summer (of You and Me)
“If you don't love him, if you don't even care about him, then seeing him now shouldn't be all that painful. Should it?”

“Unless a film of flesh envelops us, we die. Man exists only insofar as he is separated from his surroundings. The cranium is a space-traveler's helmet. Stay inside or you perish. Death is divestment, death is communion.”

Uljas uusi maailmaBookQuoters 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.
