“Sanabalis never seemed to eat, and he deflected most of her questions about Dragon cuisine. Then again, he deflected most of her questions about Dragons, period. Which was annoying because he was one, and could in theory be authorative.”
― Michelle Sagara, quote from Cast in Silence


“Stop judging your life only by the failures," he whispered.
"What should I do?" she whispered. "I'm always going to fail."
"We all do," he said softly, his voice closer now. "We all fail. But none of us fail all the time.”
― Michelle Sagara, quote from Cast in Silence


“Manners,[...] are severly underappreciated in my opinion".
"Oh?"
Where practiced well, they remove the probability that someone in my position will be forced to go through the effort of killing someone in yours. Belive that on occasion that much death can become tedious.”
― Michelle Sagara, quote from Cast in Silence


“What would this have been, if it had more power to give?"
"This may come as a surprise to you," he replied dryly, "But I am not an Ancient. Nor am I, human philosophy aside, a living construct."
"Which means you don't know."
"Which means, as you so succinctly put it, I do not know." - Kaylin & Tiamaris”
― Michelle Sagara, quote from Cast in Silence


“There is not a man born among us who dreams—at first—of service, although in the end, many are bent that way.”
― Michelle Sagara, quote from Cast in Silence



“There were always people who struggled their way to the top of the heap, no matter how much that heap looked like garbage when seen from the outside.”
― Michelle Sagara, quote from Cast in Silence


“Which would pretty much end most of the lives that Kaylin cared about, although to be fair, it would probably end the other ones, as well.”
― Michelle Sagara, quote from Cast in Silence

Popular quotes

“Ayúdalo a entender que “nuestra lucha no es contra seres humanos, sino contra poderes, contra autoridades, contra potestades que dominan este mundo de tinieblas, contra fuerzas espirituales malignas en las regiones celestiales” (Efesios 6:12). Oro para que esté fuerte en el Señor y que se ponga toda la armadura de Dios, para que pueda hacer frente a las artimañas del diablo en el día malo. Ayúdalo a ceñir sus lomos con el cinturón de la verdad y protegerse con la coraza de justicia, calzados sus pies con la disposición de proclamar el evangelio de la paz. Ayúdalo a tomar el escudo de la fe, con el cual pueda apagar todas las flechas encendidas del maligno. Oro para que tome el yelmo de la salvación, y la espada del Espíritu, la cual es la Palabra de Dios, orando siempre en el Espíritu con toda oración y súplica, vigilando y manteniéndose fuerte hasta el fin (Efesios 6:13-18).”
― Stormie Omartian, quote from The Power of a Praying Wife


“You are a deviant from the social norm!"
"Is that an insult or a diagnosis?”
― Roger Zelazny, quote from Creatures of Light and Darkness


“Your voice started to get all low and sexy at the end. You practically purr like a tiger when you're about to get off.”
― Joey W. Hill, quote from Rough Canvas


“Rhiannon's Law #22. You can't lie to yourself, so don't bother trying. Doing so only multiplies your douchebag level to the umpteenth power and confirms what others have been saying for years - that you are an idiot.”
― J.A. Saare, quote from The Renfield Syndrome


“Not five minutes after Alona had vanished through the far wall of my bedroom, my mom had poked her head in my room to say good night, and let’s face it, probably check up on me. Her face was glowing with happiness. She must have had a good time Sam at the movies. Where I was absolutely sure they did nothing but actually watch the movie, and refused to believe any evidence to the contrary. It was too...weird.”
― Stacey Kade, quote from Queen of the Dead

About BookQuoters

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.
