“speckled spiders, indolent and fat with long security, swing idly to and fro in the vibration of the bells, and never loose their hold upon their thread-spun castles in the air,”
― Charles Dickens, quote from A Christmas Carol, The Chimes and The Cricket on the Hearth
“Alas, Max, this will pain you, I know, but you must realize the truth. There are movements far bigger than the men who make them up. As for me, I am a part of the movement. Heinrich is an officer in the boys’ corps, which is headed by Baron Von Freische, whose rank is now shedding a luster upon our house, for he comes often to visit with Heinrich and Elsa, whom he much admires.”
― Kathrine Kressmann Taylor, quote from Address Unknown
“Ik denk dat de tijd volkomen stilstaat en dat ik me erin beweeg, soms langzaam en soms met razende snelheid. Ik zit aan de tafel en de tijd staat stil. Ik kan hem niet zien, niet ruiken en niet horen maar hij omringt me aan alle kanten. Zijn stilte en zijn onbeweeglijkheid zijn verschrikkelijk. Ik spring op, ren het huis uit en probeer hem te ontvluchten. Ik ga iets doen, de dingen eisen mijn aandacht op en ik vergeet de tijd. En dan, heel plotseling, is hij weer om me heen. Misschien sta ik voor het huis naar de kraaien te kijken en daar is hij weer, immaterieel en stil, en hij houdt ons vast, de wei, de kraaien en mij. Ik zal aan hem moeten wennen, aan zijn onverschilligheid en zijn alomtegenwoordigheid.”
― Marlen Haushofer, quote from The Wall
“As the months passed, even the strident voices from the newspapers had begun to moderate, and the passion to put Preston’s neck in a noose had become subdued. It was a relief to Adams that with the trial now scheduled for October, he had time to work with Josiah Quincy to prepare a case based on law and reason. And it meant he could spend time with his family and enjoy the wonderful peace of the farm.”
― Jeff Shaara, quote from Rise to Rebellion
“I told you to make yourself at home," he says. "I don't want you to feel like you have to tiptoe around, afraid of doing something wrong or hearing something you shouldn't, like phone conversations." My blood runs cold at those words. I can feel his eyes on me and not the screen. "I, uh…" I don't know what to say. "It's okay," he says, those words silencing me. He kisses the top of my head again, subject closed as he goes back to watching the movie. A few minutes pass before Naz lets out a light laugh. "So, tell me something... did you at least google me?”

Pawn of ProphecyBookQuoters 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.
