“Surrender to your fear so you may triumph over it.Choose me,open you soul to me, and embrace the Devouring.”
― Simon Holt, quote from The Devouring
“Nie chciałeś wziąć ze mną ślubu w kościele i to złamało serce mojej biednej matce, o czym dobrze wiesz. Tak cię kochałam, że było mi obojętne, czyje serce łamię dla ciebie. Och, że też mogłam być taka głupia. Sobie samej też złamałam serce. Wyrzekłam się wszystkiego, w co wierzyłam i co było mi drogie, bo byłeś taki cudowny i tak mnie kochałeś, że tylko twoja miłość się liczyła. Miłość była jedyną piękną rzeczą na świecie, prawda? Miłość była skarbem, który tylko myśmy posiadali i którego nikt poza nami nie posiadał, i nie mógł posiadać, prawda? Ty byleś geniuszem, a ja byłam twoim całym życiem. Byłam twoją towarzyszką życia i twoim ślicznym czarnym kwiatem. Sentymentalne bzdury. Miłość to jeszcze jedno plugawe kłamstwo. […] Do diabla z miłością. […] Miłość to te wszystkie plugawe sztuczki, których mnie nauczyłeś, a które sam wyczytałeś pewnie w jakichś książkach. Doskonale. Tylko ze ja mam dosyć ciebie i mam dosyć miłości. Twojego rodzaju miłości. Ty pisarzu.”
― Ernest Hemingway, quote from To Have and Have Not

The CrowBookQuoters 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.
