“Index investing is an investment strategy that Walter Mitty would love. It takes very little investment knowledge, no skill, practically no time or effort-and outperforms about 80 percent of all investors. It allows you to spend your time working, playing, or doing anything else while your nest egg compounds on autopilot. It's about as difficult as breathing and about as time consuming as going to a fast-food restaurant once a year.”
― quote from The Bogleheads' Guide to Investing

“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
“I wanted you to have the best pears in New York and I wanted to be the man to buy them for you.”

― Paullina Simons, quote from The Girl In Times Square
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.
