“Başkalarından aşağı olmadığımı anladım. Yalnızca göze batan özelliklerim, kibar davranışlarım, yani cilam yoktu, ama insandım gene de, yüreğimle, düşüncelerimle insandım.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, quote from Poor Folk
“First there was the blackness of an utter void, with the cold winds of cosmic space blowing through it. Then shapes, vague, monstrous and evanescent, rolled in dim panorama through the expanse of nothingness, as if the darkness were taking material form. The winds blew and a vortex formed, a whirling pyramid of roaring blackness. From it grew Shape and Dimension; then suddenly, like clouds dispersing, the darkness rolled away on either hand and a huge city of dark green stone rose on the bank of a wide river, flowing through an illimitable plain. Through this city moved beings of alien configuration.”
― Robert E. Howard, quote from Conan of Cimmeria
“...one of the worst things about being a parent, for me, is the self-discovery, the being face to face with one's secret insanity and brokenness and rage.”
― Anne Lamott, quote from Operating Instructions: A Journal of My Son's First Year
“For really, dreaming is the well-mannered people's way of committing suicide.”
― Isak Dinesen, quote from Seven Gothic Tales
“Ako dopustite da vam jedna loša ocjena uništi život, onda ionako nemate budućnosti. Ako dopustite da jedna loša ocjena znači vašu propast, onda bi vas stvarni život ionako uništio. Stvarni život je mnogo teži od engleskog u srednjoj školi. A ako krivite svojeg učitelja engleskog i ako mislite da je on bio strog, onda vas čeka ružno iznenađenje kad uđete u stvarni svijet. Svijet izvan škole pun je ljudi koji su mnogo stroži, mnogo tvrđi i mnogo zahtjevniji od vašeg učitelja engleskog. Ponavljam: ako dopustite jednoj lošoj ocjeni i jednom učitelju engleskog da vam uništi život, onda ionako nemate budućnosti.”
― Robert T. Kiyosaki, quote from Rich Dad's Guide to Investing: What the Rich Invest in That the Poor and Middle Class Do Not!
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.
