“I’ve never enjoyed myself more than I have the past forty-eight hours, during which I’ve been trapped in a car with one of the worst drivers I’ve ever seen, run up the Spanish Steps and then down again so I could be on time to wait in line to perjuer myself at the American consulate. And I’d like to continue doing those sorts of thing with you on a regular basis for the foreseeable future.”
― Meg Cabot, quote from Every Boy's Got One

“Working on the campaigns taught us that never trying is a lot worse than losing.”
― Alex Harris, quote from Do Hard Things: A Teenage Rebellion Against Low Expectations
“Neću se ispričavati. Oduvijek sam bio grešno stvorenje, čovjek mučen proturječjima i nestalnošću, kojeg je povuklo previše nagona. S jedne strane: čisto srce, dobrota, odani pomoćnik Djeda Božićnjaka. S druge: lajava protuha, nihilist, poblesavjeli klaun. Gdje je pjesnik? Negdje između, pretpostavljam, u međuvremenu između najboljeg i najgoreg u meni. Ni svetac, ali ni pijana budala. Čovjek s glasovima u glavi, onaj koji je ponekad uspijevao prisluškivati razgovore kamenja i stabala, koji je svako toliko glazbu oblaka uspijevao pretočiti u riječi. Šteta što češće nisam bio on. No nikad nisam bio u Italiji, rodnom mjestu samilosti, pa ako ne možeš platiti kartu, onda ostaješ doma”
― Paul Auster, quote from Timbuktu
“Thou didst love me before I loved thee,
an enemy, a sinner, a loathsome worm.”

“Is there an option C? Take a vacation somewhere sunny, and drink a lot of rum until the world unfucks itself?”

Worth the WeightBookQuoters 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.
