“زندگی میں ایک چیز ہوتی ہے جسے کمرامائز کہتے ہیں. پرسکون زندگی گزارنے کے لئیے اسکی ضرورت پڑتی ہے.جس چیز کو تم بدل نہ سکو اسکے ساتھ کمپرومائز کر لیا کرو مگر اپنی کسی بھی خواہش کو جنون مت بنایا کرو. زندگی میں کچھ چیزیں اسي ہیں جو ہمیں نہیں مل سکتيں. چاہے ہم روۓ چلائيں یا بچوں کی طرح ایڑیاں ‏رگڑیں کیونکے وہ کھخ دوسرے کے لیے ہوتی ہیں جیسے تمہارے پیرنٹس کسی اور کے پیرنٹس ہیں. تمہارا گھر کس اور کا گھر ہے مگر اسکا یہ مطلب نہیں کہ ہوتا کہ زندگی میں ہمارے لیے کچھ ہوتا ہی نہیں. کچہ نا کچھ ہمارے لیے بھی ہوتا ہے.”
― Umera Ahmed, quote from امربیل (Amar Bail)

“La démocratie vit de mouvements, de changements, d’agencements contractuels, de temps fluides, de dynamiques permanentes, de jeux dialectiques. Elle se crée, vit, change, se métamorphose, se construit en regard d’un vouloir issu de forces vivantes. Elle recourt à l’usage de la raison, au dialogue des parties prenantes, à l’agir communicationnel, à la diplomatie autant qu’à la négociation. La théocratie fonctionne à l’inverse : elle nait, vit et jouit de l’immobilité, de la mort et de l’irrationnel. La théocratie est l’ennemie la plus à craindre de la démocratie, avant-hier à Paris avant 1789, hier à Téhéran en 1978, et aujourd’hui chaque fois qu’Al-Quaïda fait parler la poudre.”
― Michel Onfray, quote from Atheist Manifesto: The Case Against Christianity, Judaism, and Islam

“That night is going to pale in comparison to today, precious. Today, I’m going to make love to you sweetly and tenderly. Then I’m going to fuck you so long and hard, your beautiful pussy is going to be raw. You won’t be able to stand, let alone walk. After that, I’m going to go down on you until you’re shivering and coming all over my tongue. And then we’ll do it all again.”
― Laurelin Paige, quote from The Fixed Trilogy (Fixed, #1-3)

“Over his shoulder, she saw Skulduggery walk in. "Oh, hell," she muttered.
Wreath's smile reappeared. "It's Skulduggery, isn't it?"
Over his shoulder, she saw Skulduggery walk in. "Oh , hell," she muttered.
Wreath's smile reappeared. "It's Skulduggery, isn't it?"
"Please don't annoy him."
"Me? When have I EVER annoyed the great Skulduggery Pleasant?"
Skulduggery arrived at their table. Wreath smile up at him. "Hello."
"I will shoot you in the eye," Skulduggery said.
Wreath glanced at Valkyrie. "I think I've annoyed him.”
― Derek Landy, quote from The Dying of the Light

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.
