“We dream — it is good we are dreaming —
It would hurt us — were we awake —
But since it is playing — kill us,
And we are playing — shriek —
What harm? Men die — externally —
It is a truth — of Blood —
But we — are dying in Drama —
And Drama — is never dead —
Cautious — We jar each other —
And either — open the eyes —
Lest the Phantasm — prove the Mistake —
And the livid Surprise
Cool us to Shafts of Granite —
With just an Age — and Name —
And perhaps a phrase in Egyptian —
It's prudenter — to dream —”
― Emily Dickinson, quote from Final Harvest: Emily Dickinson's Poems
“...it is not possible to create the opposite of what one has always known, simply because the opposite is believed to be desired. Human beings need what they already know, even horrors.”
― A.S. Byatt, quote from The Virgin in the Garden
“[...] Но вот что слишком немногими испытано, что очаровательность, которую всему дает любовь, вовсе не должна, по-настоящему, быть мимолетным явлением в жизни человека, что этот яркий свет жизни не должен озарять только эпоху искания, стремления, назовем хотя так: ухаживания, или сватания, нет, что эта эпоха по-настоящему должна быть только зарею, милою, прекрасною, но предшественницею дня, в котором несравненно больше и света и теплоты, чем в его предшественнице, свет и теплота которого долго, очень долго растут, все растут, и особенно теплота очень долго растет, далеко за полдень все еще растет. Прежде было не так: когда соединялись любящие, быстро исчезала поэзия любви. Теперь у тех людей, которые называются нынешними людьми, вовсе не так. Они, когда соединяет их любовь, чем дольше живут вместе, тем больше и больше озаряются и согреваются ее поэзиею, до той самой поры, позднего вечера, когда заботы о вырастающих детях будут уже слишком сильно поглощать их мысли. Тогда забота более сладкая, чем личное наслаждение, становится выше его, но до той поры оно все растет. То, что прежние люди знали только на мимолетные месяцы, нынешние люди сохраняют в себе на долгие, долгие годы.
Отчего это так? А это уж секрет; я вам, пожалуй, выдам его. Хороший секрет, славно им пользоваться, и не мудрено, только надобно иметь для этого чистое сердце и честную душу, да нынешнее понятие о правах человека, уважение к свободе того, с кем живешь. Только, - больше и секрета нет никакого. Смотри на жену, как смотрел на невесту, знай, что она каждую минуту имеет право сказать: "я недовольна тобою, прочь от меня"; смотри на нее так, и она через девять лет после твоей свадьбы будет внушать тебе такое же поэтическое чувство, как невеста, нет, более поэтическое, более идеальное в хорошем смысле слова. Признавай ее свободу так же открыто и формально, и без всяких оговорок, как признаешь свободу твоих друзей чувствовать или не чувствовать дружбу к тебе, и тогда, через десять лет, через двадцать лет после свадьбы, ты будешь ей так же мил, как был женихом.”
― Nikolai Chernyshevsky, quote from What Is to Be Done?
“Find what you want. I will find you.”
― Lloyd Alexander, quote from Westmark
“For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the Lord, and becometh as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient, full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father.”
― Henry B. Eyring, quote from To Draw Closer To God: A Collection Of Discourses
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.
