“- В клинике, как в монастыре, - сказала она. - Заново учишься ценить
самые простые вещи. Начинаешь понимать, что это значит - ходить, дышать,
видеть.
- Да. Счастья кругом - сколько угодно. Только нагибайся и подбирай.
Она удивленно посмотрела на него.
- Я говорю серьезно, Равик.
- И я, Кэт. Только самые простые вещи никогда не разочаровывают.
Счастье достается как-то очень просто и всегда намного проще, чем думаешь (гл. XIII).
- Потому что... - сказал Равик. - Прижмись ко мне теснее, любимая,
вновь возвращенная из бездны сна, вернувшаяся с лунных лугов... потому что
ночь и сон - предатели. Помнишь, как мы заснули сегодня ночью друг возле
друга - мы были так близки, как только могут быть близки люди... Мы слились
воедино лицом, телом, мыслями, дыханьем... И вдруг нас разлучил сон. Он
медленно просачивался, серый, бесцветный, - сначала пятно, потом еще и
еще... Как проказа, он оседал на наших мыслях, проникал в кровь из мрака
бессознательного, капля за каплей в нас вливалась слепота, и вдруг каждый
остался один, и в полном одиночестве мы поплыли куда-то по темным каналам,
отданные во власть неведомых сил и безликой угрозы. Проснувшись, я увидел
тебя. Ты спала. Ты все еще была далеко-далеко. Ты совсем ускользнула от
меня. Ты ничего больше обо мне не знала. Ты оказалась там, куда я не мог
последовать за тобой. - Он поцеловал ее руку. - Разве может быть любовь
совершенной, если каждую ночь, едва уснув, я теряю тебя? (гл. XV)
... сторонник простых радостей (гл. ХХХI)
- Аристократия отбыла, - сказал Зейденбаум. - Теперь здесь остались
одни лишь приговоренные к пожизненному заключению и к смертной казни.
Избранный народ! Любимцы Иеговы. Специально предназначенные для погромов. Да здравствует жизнь! (гл. XXXII)”

“I'm the crazy girly captain, Remember?”

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.
