“Sex appeal isn't a number on a scale, it's an attitude, a state of mind. Any woman can be sexy.”
― Alex Lux, quote from Call Me Cat
“Perhaps we're all broken souls wandering this life looking for something that will make us whole.”
― Alex Lux, quote from Call Me Cat
“All relationships are built on lies. They're built on what we think the other person wants to see in us, and what we want to see in them, and how we each interpret the subjective symbols of communication. Too much truth would spoil it.”
― Alex Lux, quote from Call Me Cat
“I learned I had to save myself. That I could only depend on one person, and that was me.”
― Alex Lux, quote from Call Me Cat
“And so I eventually stopped crying myself to sleep at night. Stopped dreaming of them coming back to save me. Stopped believing anyone would save me. I learned I had to save myself. That I could only depend on one person, and that was me.”
― Alex Lux, quote from Call Me Cat

“I'll be your best friend, darlin', if you tell me your name.
I'll be your sunshine when you grow tired of the rain.
You can walk away and I'm sure I'll be all right.
But just so you know, you'll be in my dreams tonight...”
― Brittainy C. Cherry, quote from Loving Mr. Daniels
“You're the one who doesn't understand, I've been standing on the edge with you for years.”
― Laurie Halse Anderson, quote from The Impossible Knife of Memory

“Hope will lie to you, but lust is what it is; it never lies.”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, quote from Flirt
“The element of truth behind all this, which people are so ready to disavow, is that [humans] are not gentle creatures who want to be loved, and who at the most can defend themselves if attacked; they are, on the contrary, creatures among whose instinctual endowments is to be reckoned a powerful share of aggressiveness. ... It is always possible to bind together a considerable number of people in love, so long as there are other people left over to receive the manifestations of their aggressiveness.”

The Coffin ClubBookQuoters 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.
