“Within families, you’re stuck with the character they think you are, whatever you do. You become a war hero and all that your parents ever talk about is something supposedly funny you used to do when you were in nursery school.”
― Nicci French, quote from Secret Smile

“You know, Savannah, if you cry, I won’t tell anyone,’ Ken said quietly. ‘I promise.”
― Suzanne Brockmann, quote from Out of Control
“Je revenais du lycée et m'attablais devant le plat. Ma mère, debout, me regardait manger avec cet air apaisé des chiennes qui allaitent leurs petits.
Elle refusait d'y toucher elle-même et m'assurait qu'elle n'aimait que les légumes et que la viande et les graisses lui étaient strictement défendues.
Un jour, quittant la table, j'allai à la cuisine boire un verre d'eau.
Ma mère était assise sur un tabouret; elle tenait sur ses genoux la poêle à frire où mon bifteck avait été cuit. Elle en essuyait soigneusement le fond graisseux avec des morceaux de pain qu'elle mangeait ensuite avidement et, malgré son geste rapide pour dissimuler la poêle sous la serviette, je sus soudain, dans un éclair, toute la vérité sur les motifs réels de son régime végétarien.”

The Red GardenBookQuoters 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.
