“That's our story.
How we became a we.
And that's what we are these day. A we.
When you're a group that can hear each other's thoughts, the line between I and We gets kind of blurry.”
― Sarah Mlynowski, quote from Don't Even Think About It
“Normal is boring. Who wants that?”

“... Защото това тук нищо не значи. Да виждаш и да не разбираш — това е все едно да измисляш. Аз виждам, виждам и не разбирам, живея в свят, съчинен от някого, който не си е направил труда да ми го обясни на мен, а може би и на себе си. Тъга по разбирането — изведнъж си помисли Перец. — Ето от какво съм болен — от тъга да разбирам.”
― Arkady Strugatsky, quote from The Snail on the Slope
“A person's birthday should be a special day, a wonderful day, a day of pure celebration for the luck of being born! ”
― Elise Broach, quote from Masterpiece
“My memories are not books. They are only stories that I have been over so many times in my head that I don’t know from one day to the next what’s remembered and what’s made up.”
― Elizabeth McCracken, quote from The Giant's House
“The Taoist and Zen conception of perfection... the dynamic nature of their philosophy laid more stress upon the process through which perfection was sought than upon perfection itself. True beauty could be discovered only by one who mentally completed the incomplete. The virility of life and art lay in its possibilities for growth.”
― Kakuzō Okakura, quote from The Book of Tea
“Only my books anoint me,
and a few friends,
those who reach into my veins.”

Finding SkyBookQuoters 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.
