“If there's one area of me that the devil's got a hold of, it's my tongue.”
― Stefne Miller, quote from Collision
“My ACTIONS should draw people to the God I serve, not my SALES PITCH. If people want what I have, they'll ask me how to get it. If not, that's their business.”
― Stefne Miller, quote from Collision
“I don't think there's anything wrong with borrowing someone else's faith to get you through until you get enough on your own.”

“But why me?
Because, idiot, you... are funny and smart and you have a giant heart that you can't even pretend to hide. And you love your friends and your mum, and you held my hand and made me sing when I was so scared I thought I was going to die. I knew you understood, right from the beginning, this thing inside, the stuff in your head that you need to make real. You get that.... And you wear stupid Superman pyjamas without any irony, and your face lights up when you talk about the movies you love.... And... you protect my dwarf. You always have her back. And you have a dimple when you smile that's so cute I almost died the first time I saw it.”
― Melissa Keil, quote from Life in Outer Space
“I want you to be careful in this world. My heart is wrapped up in you.”
― Jeff Zentner, quote from The Serpent King
“تف به هرچی هروئینی است. بچههایی که هروئین میزنند به خوشبختی همیشگی عادت میکنند. کارشان تمام است. چون خوشبختی وقتی حس میشود که کم بودنش را حس کنیم. آنهایی که از این چیزها به خودشان تزریق میکنند، حتما در جستجوی خوشبختی هستند و فقط احمقترین احمقها برای پیدا کردن آن، چنین راهی را انتخاب میکنند. من هرگز گرتی نشدم. چند بار با دوستانم ماریجوانا کشیدم. آن هم برای اینکه باهاشان همراهی کرده باشم و به هر حال، ده سالگی سنی است که آدم خیلی چیزها را از بزرگترها یاد میگیرد. اما من میل چندانی به خوشحالی نداشتم. زندگی را ترجیح میدادم.”
― Romain Gary, quote from The Life Before Us ("Madame Rosa'')
“most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible.”
― Leonard Mlodinow, quote from The Upright Thinkers: The Human Journey from Living in Trees to Understanding the Cosmos
“Marriage is patterned after Christ’s covenant relationship to his redeemed people, the church. And therefore, the highest meaning and the most ultimate purpose of marriage is to put the covenant relationship of Christ and his church on display. That is why marriage exists. If you are married, that is why you are married. If you hope to be, that should be your dream.”
― John Piper, quote from This Momentary Marriage: A Parable of Permanence
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.
