“Life is a series of things we would rather not do.”
― Joe Abercrombie, quote from Last Argument of Kings
“...he wanted to relive those confused days, that life of discovery, to be bound to those round tables and lectures and exams. There were things he had always meant to understand better [...] He wanted to read what he was told each evening, to do as he was told. There were great writers he had never read, would never read. His daughters would begin that journey soon enough, the world opening up for them in its entirety.”
― Jhumpa Lahiri, quote from Unaccustomed Earth
“LUKE 14 [†]One Sabbath, p when he went to dine at the house of a ruler of the Pharisees, they were q watching him carefully. 2[†]And behold, there was a man before him who had dropsy. 3[†]And Jesus responded to r the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, s “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath, or not?” 4[†]But they remained silent. Then he took him and healed him and sent him away. 5[†]And he said to them, t “Which of you, having a son [1] or an ox that has fallen into a well on a Sabbath day, will not immediately pull him out?” 6[†] u And they could not reply to these things.”
― quote from ESV Study Bible
“Right before I was escorted to the jail, Fawn waved bye bye to me. I smiled. My empty, pointless life for hers. Not bad.”

Thirst No. 3: The Et...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.
