Popular quotes

“Nothing you will object to," James replied in a soothing tone. I cannot think how he came to imagine that he would know what I might or might not object to.”
― Patricia C. Wrede, quote from Sorcery & Cecelia: or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot

“I believe that black has been oppressed by white; female by male; peasant by landlord; and worker by lord of capital. It follows from this that the black female worker and peasant is the most oppressed. She is oppressed on account of her color like all black people in the world; she is oppressed on account of her gender like all women in the world; and she is exploited and oppressed on account of her class like all workers and peasants in the world. Three burdens she has to carry.”
― Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o, quote from Wizard of the Crow

“By the light," he said, when he had mastered himself. "I think that beats singing a lullaby to a stormdog for simplicity and economy, Maerad. But I wish I had known that you simply had to blow at Hulls to get rid of them. It would have saved me a few scars.”
― Alison Croggon, quote from The Singing

“If you fear nothing, then you are not brave. You are merely too foolish to be afraid.”
― Laurell K. Hamilton, quote from Skin Trade

“CAPÍTULO C   “TU SERÁS FELIZ, BENTINHO”   No quarto, desfazendo a mala e tirando a carta de bacharel de dentro da lata, ia pensando na felicidade e na glória. Via o casamento e a carreira ilustre, enquanto José Dias me ajudava calado e zeloso. Uma fada invisível desceu ali, e me disse em voz igualmente macia e cálida: “Tu serás feliz, Bentinho; tu vais ser feliz.” – E por que não seria feliz? perguntou José Dias, endireitando o tronco e fitando-me. – Você ouviu? – perguntei eu erguendo-me também, espantado. – Ouviu o quê? – Ouviu uma voz que dizia que eu serei feliz? – É boa! Você mesmo é que está dizendo... Ainda agora sou capaz de jurar que a voz era da fada; naturalmente as fadas, expulsas dos contos e dos versos, meteram-se no coração da gente e falam de dentro para fora. Esta, por exemplo, muita vez a ouvi clara e distinta. Há de ser prima das feiticeiras da Escócia: “Tu serás rei, Macbeth!” – “Tu serás feliz, Bentinho!” Ao cabo, é a mesma predição, pela mesma toada universal e eterna.”
― Machado de Assis, quote from Dom Casmurro

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.
