“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

“She sang of the Love that is perfected by death, of the Love that dies not in the tomb.”
― Oscar Wilde, quote from The Happy Prince and Other Tales


“You’re telling me you’re not icing me out because of Tamara?”
“Why would I?”
He leaned closer and I sucked in my breath as his citrusy cologne hit me in delightful waves. “Because of what’s between us.”
Trembling now, I whispered. “There’s nothing between us.”
The gloom disappeared from Cole’s eyes and the gold seemed to flare as heat entered them. “Nothing but a shitload of chemistry I’ve wanted to explore since we first met.”
― Samantha Young, quote from Echoes of Scotland Street


“...but as his father used to say when he had a few drinks taken, you couldn't expect bloody miracles when you were talking about God.”
― Joseph O'Connor, quote from Star of the Sea


“The slow stone metamorphoses filled him with longing—longing for what? Simplicity? Was simplicity the true nature of homegoing? The simple harmonies, earth order and abundance. In this churchyard in a woodland meadow at the end of a white road, he missed what he had never known, the peace of living one day then another in communion with others of one’s blood and at the end, at the close of one’s works and days, to draw that last breath and come to rest in earth where one’s bones belonged.”
― Peter Matthiessen, quote from Shadow Country


“Ako vam je suviše stalo do onoga što imate kazati, ako vam je ono suviše priraslo srcu, možete biti sigurni, da ćete doživeti potpuni neuspeh. Postat ćete patetični, postati ćete sentimentalni, pod vašim rukama nastaće nešto nezgrapno, nespretno, neozbiljno, neobuzdano, bez ironije, neslano, dosadno, banalno a kraj priče biće: samo ravnodušnost u ljudi, samo razočaranje i jad u vama.
Jer tako vam je to , Lizaveto: Osećaj, topli, srdačni osećaj uvek je banalan i neupotrebljiv a umetnička je samo razdraženost i hladna ekstaza našeg pokvarenog, našeg artističkog živčanog sistema”
― Thomas Mann, quote from Tonio Kröger

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.
