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

“How do you make someone understand what it means or how it feels to be torn in half? Not many people know this desperate need to be put back together again.”
― Damien Echols, quote from Life After Death
“the New World had become the oil granary for the Old; altogether, the United States was to satisfy 80 percent of the Allies’ wartime requirement for petroleum.”
― Daniel Yergin, quote from The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money, and Power
“Dĩ nhiên, Kiên nghĩ, quên thật là khó. Nói chung chẳng biết đến bao giờ thì lòng mình mới có thể nguội nổi, trái tim mình mới thoát khỏi gọng bàn tay xiết chặt của những kỷ niệm chiến tranh. Những kỷ niệm có thể là êm đềm, có thể là ác hại nhưng đều để lại những vết thương mà tới bây giờ một năm đã qua, hay mười năm, hay hai mươi năm nữa vẫn còn đau, đau mãi. Có thể từ rày cuộc đời anh sẽ luôn luôn như thế này chăng: tối tăm, đau khổ nhưng rạng ngời hạnh phúc?”
― Bảo Ninh, quote from The Sorrow of War: A Novel of North Vietnam
“It is no small thing to be a Throne Warden of Anniera. They have been sung about by bards for a thousand years and are accorded a place of honor like no other kingdom—like no other king—in the world—not because they’re lords, but because they’re servants.”
― Andrew Peterson, quote from On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness
“Hell, if a neighbour were to stick their head out their window and see a tattooed god ramming a chick in the neighbour’s backyard all lit by romantic lights, they’d probably watch. I’d watch too.”

The Innocence of Fat...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.
