― Paige Toon, quote from Chasing Daisy

“He’s such a social guy—and so popular around here—that sometimes I wonder where he got it from. In many ways he’s the exact opposite of me. He likes to let a lot of people in; I like to keep most people out.”
― Tahereh Mafi, quote from Fracture Me
“If you want to glide toward money, you have to make sure your message is clear as a bell, and you need to ensure that you have a unified team capable of communicating it.”

“If the devil was going to come, I expected to see the myth of him. A demon with an asphalt shine. He'd be fury. A chill. A bad cough. Cujo at the car window, a ticket at the Creepshow booth, a leap into the depth of night.”
― quote from The Summer that Melted Everything
“You’re the only one I kiss goodnight.”
― Angela Morrison, quote from Sing Me to Sleep
“Diego había usado el florete a diario desde que era un niño, pero no había tenido que pelear en serio. Su único duelo a muerte fue con pistolas y había sido mucho más limpio. Comprobó que no hay nada honorable en un combate real, donde las reglas no cuentan para nada. La única regla es vencer, cueste lo que cueste. Los filos de las armas no chocaban en una elegante coreografía, como en las clases de esgrima, sino que apuntaban directamente al enemigo para atravesarlo. La caballerosidad no existía, los golpes eran feroces y no se daba cuartel a nadie. La sensación que transmitía el acero al entrar en la carne de un hombre era indescriptible. Se apoderó de él una mezcla de despiadada exaltación, de repugnancia y triunfo, perdió la noción de la realidad y se transformó en una bestia.”
― Isabel Allende, quote from Zorro

The Girl Who Could F...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.
