― Gail Carson Levine, quote from Ever

About the author

Popular quotes

“At the door, I looked back at all those people I didn’t know and thought about how small your heart is but how big of a space it takes up. And how, even though you can’t see it, that heart space grows so quietly across a room or up some stairs into someone else’s living room, that even if you never step foot in it again, the air in there is changed forever.”
― Jennifer Gooch Hummer, quote from Girl Unmoored

“Il y en a qui écrivent pour rechercher les applaudissements humains, au moyen de nobles qualités du coeur que l’imagination invente ou qu’ils peuvent avoir. Moi, je fais servir mon génie à peindre les délices de la cruauté ! Délices non passagères, artificielles ; mais, qui ont commencé avec l’homme, finiront avec lui. Le génie ne peut-il pas s’allier avec la cruauté dans les résolutions secrètes de la Providence ? ou, parce qu’on est cruel, ne peut-on pas avoir du génie ? On en verra la preuve dans mes paroles ; il ne tient qu’à vous de m’écouter, si vous le voulez bien... Pardon, il me semblait que mes cheveux s’étaient dressés sur ma tête ; mais, ce n’est rien, car, avec ma main, je suis parvenu facilement à les remettre dans leur première position. Celui qui chante ne prétend pas que ses cavatines soient une chose inconnue ; au contraire, il se loue de ce que les pensées hautaines et méchantes de son héros soient dans tous les hommes.”
― Comte de Lautréamont, quote from Maldoror = Les Chants de Maldoror, together with a translation of Lautréamont's Poésies

“((المانترا الرئيسية)) :
...
روح واحدة ..
وراء حركة الكون ..
توازنه ..
وحدته ..
استمراريته ..
وجوده ...

انها داخلي
.. و هي هويتي الحقيقية

هي الفاعل ..
و السبب من وراء الفعل

.. تحميني في كل الأحوال
، و في أي زمان أو مكان

لا تخشى شئ
.. و لا تعرف شئ
عن الظلم أو الرعونة ..


خالدة
.. لم تلد و لم تولد

تتدفق من خلال دورات
الميلاد .. و الموت
.. تتحرك بقدرتها .. و صفائها
*****
هذا الفهم سوف يأتي لك
كنعمة حلوة
كهدية ..

.. و في كل لحظة ستمر
سيظل تذكرك له مستمر
*****
.. منذ البداية
و تلك هي الحقيقة الوحيدة

في كل زمان او مكان
تلك هي الحقيقة

و حتى الآن ..
فتلك هي الحقيقة الوحيدة

آوه ناناك :
انها الوحيدة على الإطلاق”
― Guru Nanak, quote from Sri Guru Granth Sahib

“I have very few rules in life, but one of them is to never decline an adventure. The others are: to avoid becoming romantically entangled with sea creatures; to always ask for what you want, because the worst thing that can happen is embarrassment but the best thing that can happen is nudity; to demand ready money up front; and to never play cards with Catarina Loss.”
― Cassandra Clare, quote from Vampires, Scones, and Edmund Herondale

“Spandex bodysuits, huh?” His eyes twinkled. “If that’s what turns you on—I’m all for giving it a try.”
― J.C. Reed, quote from Surrender Your Love

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.
