“Words are important. They let you know it’s real, you’re fine, more people like you exist. They let you know you’re not alone.”
― RoAnna Sylver, quote from Chameleon Moon
“They'll use guns and they'll use words, and the worst part of all is that you might listen when they say you're a freak or a monster, and you might start to believe it.
But they are lying.”
― RoAnna Sylver, quote from Chameleon Moon
“I want to keep people safe, so I try to learn all I can,” Evelyn said as her heart swelled with an intense feeling of recognition. “About minds, hearts, sexuality, gender, identity, your whole life, it’s all important… Wish I’d known a lot more a long time ago. It makes everything easier.” “Just having the words helps,” he said quietly. “Yeah,”
― RoAnna Sylver, quote from Chameleon Moon
“The only time it's hopeless is when you're dead! Long as you're alive, you can get better - you can make it better.”

That’s what it all comes down to, love. That’s how we’re gonna get through this. And we are gonna get through this.”
― RoAnna Sylver, quote from Chameleon Moon
“Your memory is… it’s like that song. You knew by heart once. And you will again. It’ll come back even if you don’t know the words right now. You do recognize it. It means you belong here—or we’re close. Wherever home is, we’ll find it.”
― RoAnna Sylver, quote from Chameleon Moon
“Holy crap…” Regan whispered, awed and sick and proud at the same time. “She punched it in the face.”
― RoAnna Sylver, quote from Chameleon Moon
“I wish bad brain stuff was an actual guy I could punch in the face. PTSD, panic attacks, anxiety, flashbacks, hallucinations, anything that gives you hell, could just send'em to me, I'd fight them all. [...] Stuff's a lot harder to fight when they're stuck in your own head."
"Yeah... didn't stop me from trying, though.”
― RoAnna Sylver, quote from Chameleon Moon

“Well… I want to get better,” he said quietly. “So whatever you can do for me, that’d just be great, okay? I don’t like not knowing where I am or what’s going on or—it feels like falling. I’m off-balance and I don’t like it. I know I could just ask people until I know everything but I want… I just want everything back, that’s all. So how do I get it back?” “Well,”

“So what I want to know is this. How often do all these hairy-faced men wash their faces? It is only once a week, like us, on Sunday nights? And do they shampoo it? Do they use a hair-dryer? Do they rub hair-tonic in to stop their faces from going bald? Do they go to a barber to have their hairy faces cut and trimmed or do they do it themselves in front of the bathroom mirror with nail-scissors?”
― Roald Dahl, quote from The Twits
“- Úgy nézel ki, mint egy statiszta a Dracula pornóváltozatából - felelte a nő.
Spade elnevette magát, Ian viszont felszisszent. - Ne is emlegessük. Akárcsak az ördög, Vlad is betoppanhat, ha a falra festjük.”
― Jeaniene Frost, quote from First Drop of Crimson
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.
