“Zu Hause ist da, wo deine Bücher sind.”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream


“Liv, stop it!" hissed Mia. "You look like a lovelorn sheep!"
I gave a start. "As bad as that? Oh, that's terrible." I added - and I was to regret it in the course of the day - "If you see me looking like that again, give me a nudge or throw something at me. Promise?"
"With pleasure," said Mia, and three hours later, because she always kept her promises, I was black and blue around the ribs and had been hit by assorted flying objects: several chestnuts, a spoon, and a blueberry muffin.”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream


“E se tu dormissi?

E se nel sonno

tu sognassi?

E se nel tuo sogno

salissi al cielo

e lì cogliessi un mirabile fiore?

E se al tuo risveglio

quel fiore

fosse fra le tue mani?
(Samuel Taylor Coleridge)”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream


“«Perché il mio desiderio è stato esaudito nel momento stesso in cui ti ho conosciuta.»”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream


“Estúpidamente, había creido que nunca podría necesitarlo”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream



“Sí que era raro todo lo que se pillaba y almacenaba inconscientemente”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream


“¿Cómo decía Sherlock Holmes? Es un error capital formular una teoría antes de tener los indicios correspondientes. Inconscientemente, se empiezan a tergiversar los hechos para que encajen con las teorías, en vez de que las teorías encajen con los hechos.”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream


“Según Confucio, el sabio olvida las ofensas como un ingrato los favores”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream

― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream


“Algunas frases tienen un efecto irresistible en mí”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Dream a Little Dream

Popular quotes

“Under a smoky streetlamp I stood face to face with my beloved and pricked my fingers against the diamond studs of her immaculate shirt front. Being tall, she slipped her hands naturally about my hips and pulled me close. And being bold, I put my mouth on hers and this time went inside and told her all the things I’d been longing to. Dark and sweet, the elixir of love is in her mouth. The more I drink, the more I remember all the things we’ve never done. I was a ghost until I touched you. Never swallowed mortal food until I tasted you, never understood the spoken word until I found your tongue. I’ve been a sleep-walker, sad somnambula, hands outstretched to strike the solid thing that could awaken me to life at last. I have only ever stood here under this lamp, against your body, I’ve missed you all my life.”
― Ann-Marie MacDonald, quote from Fall on Your Knees


“Women, in my experience, if they once reach the determination to commit suicide, usually wish to reveal the state of mind that led to the fatal action. They covet the limelight.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from The Murder of Roger Ackroyd


“I may have implied on several occasions to several different people that I may have been Jesus Christ, but I haven't decided yet what I am or who I am.”
― Vincent Bugliosi, quote from Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders


“If he’d been any other man and i'd been any other girl, I’d have called the narrowing of his heavy-lidded dark eyes lust. But he was Barrons and I was Mac, and a blossoming of lust was about as likely as orchids blooming in Antarctica”
― Karen Marie Moning, quote from Bloodfever


“I’m that bad, am I?” I whispered, lips trembling. I was going to bawl again. “In all the world, with all the things humans have done, all the unspeakable horrors men have visited on other men, the unthinkable suffering of women and children worldwide at the hands of mankind, and I’m that bad!”
― Anne Rice, quote from Memnoch the Devil

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.
