― Joey Graceffa, quote from Children of Eden


“What do you dream about?” she asks me.
“Finding someone,” I say immediately. “Someone who I can trust, someone who makes me complete.” I bite my lip, and my face flushes hot. “That's stupid, I know. It's just that I never had anybody, really. Not someone who I chose, or who chose me.”
Lark rolls toward me, propping herself up on her elbow. She looks into my eyes and says solemnly, “I chose you.”
Then, slowly, she bends until her lips touch mine. Her lilac hair tumbles over us, and though it I can see the stars shining. Oh Earth, they're spinning! They're dancing…”

“MEN, Charlene said.
Leave that to you! Willa quipped.”
― Ridley Pearson, quote from Disney after Dark


“Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
No amount of money,
Can stop me from loving you,


Try as they may,
Try as they might,
I’m not letting go,
Without a fight,


Some say it’s wicked,
Some say it’s sinful,
Some it’s wrong,
And just wrong,


I don’t know much,
But when push comes to shove,
I definitely don’t believe,
There’s such thing wrong as love.”
― Chris Colfer, quote from Struck By Lightning: The Carson Phillips Journal


“The sunrise was the colour of bad blood. It leaked out of the east and stained the dark sky red, marked the scraps of the cloud with stolen gold. Underneath it the road twisted up the mountainside towards the fortress of Fontezarmo - a cluster of sharp towers, ash-black again the wounded heavens. The sunrise was red, black and gold.
The colours of their profession.”
― Joe Abercrombie, quote from Best Served Cold


“Kasno je, sjećanja, uzalud se javljate, beskorisne su vaše nemoćne utjehe i podsjećanja na ono što je moglo da bude, jer što nije bilo, nije ni moglo da bude. A uvijek izgleda lijepo ono što se nije ostvarilo. Vi ste varka koja rađa nezadovoljstvo, varka koju ne mogu i
ne želim da otjeram jer me razoružava i tihom tugom brani od patnje.”
― Meša Selimović, quote from Death and the Dervish


“You leap too quickly to his defense. It reveals his true attitude, of which he has doubtless made you aware.”
― Roger Zelazny, quote from Nine Princes in Amber

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.
