“The end of the world hurts like a bitch.”
― Graham McNamee, quote from Bonechiller
“Moving into the hallway, I make the mistake of looking down. The floor seems to drop out from under me, with nothing solid to support me but my own reflection.
I take a step, watching the sole of my bare left foot meet its twin rising up on the flipside. I get the weirdest sensation that I won't fall as long as I have the reversed images of my own feet to walk on.”
― Graham McNamee, quote from Bonechiller

“Бях уморена; изпотрепвах се от работа и все не вървеше. Кимет не виждаше, че имам нужда от малко помощ, вместо цял живот все аз да помагам, никой не ме забелязваше и всички изискваха все повече от мен, сякаш не съм човек. А Кимет, дай му да взема гълъби и да ги подарява. В неделя излизаше със Синтет. А ни беше казал, че иска да сложи кош на мотора, за да излизаме всички. Той със сина отзад, а аз в коша с дъщерята. Но, както казах, в неделя излизаше със Синтет и мисля, че отиваха да патрулират, както си бяха наумили. Понякога все още се оплакваше от крака, но веднага млъкваше, тъй като синът ни омотаваше крака си с един парцал и обикаляше столовата, преструвайки се на куц, а Рита след него, вдигнала нагоре ръчички. Кимет се ядосваше, че възпитавам децата като циганчета.”
― Mercè Rodoreda, quote from The Time of the Doves
“And then you run. Because the only thing worse than her being gone is that you're still here.”

A Song for JuliaBookQuoters 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.
