― Stuart Gibbs, quote from Evil Spy School
“Kill them quickly?” Murray asked, without bothering to raise his hand. “Really? Isn’t it more fun to draw their death out a little? To make them suffer?” Joshua sighed. “No. We’re not James Bond villains here, kids. The more you draw out your enemy’s deaths, the more chance they have to escape. So no lowering them into pools full of crocodiles or trying to slice them in half with lasers or anything like that. Just shoot them and be done with it.” Ashley”
― Stuart Gibbs, quote from Evil Spy School
“I had to admit the whole thing was pretty clever. “Okay. So SPYDER has a plan for Hidden Forest. Do they have one for us?” Murray”

“...my little blurb wasn't going to win me any speaker-of-the-year awards, but at least I hadn't tripped and fallen off the stage, crushing and killing three elderly jazz fans.”

“You had better run from me. My words are fire.”
― Rumi, quote from The Book of Love: Poems of Ecstasy and Longing
“We can formulate Plantinga’s version of the ontological argument as follows: 1) It is possible that a maximally great being exists. 2) If it is possible that a maximally great being exists, then a maximally great being exists in some possible world. 3) If a maximally great being exists in some possible world, then it exists in every possible world. 4) If a maximally great being exists in every possible world, then it exists in the actual world. 5) If a maximally great being exists in the actual world, then a maximally great being exists. 6) Therefore, a maximally great being exists.”
― William Lane Craig, quote from Reasonable Faith
“Să aibă parte de o femeie matură trebuie să fie visul oricărui puşti. Dar cu mine e altceva. Ea mă interesează mai puţin ca iniţiatoare în erotism, cât pur şi simplu ca suflet şi gândire şi memorie de femeie coaptă, de femeie adevărată. Elevele sau studentele nu sunt, de cele mai multe ori, decât nişte mâţe închipuite, învăluite, e drept, în lumina de ambră a ochilor şi într-un fel de nonconformism năuc. Fără trecut, sau fără să şi-l conştientizeze încă, anexe de discotecă al căror erotism, când există, e unul pur social şi estetic, ele strepezesc imaginaţia ca nişte fructe încă necoapte. Cele mai multe nu se coc niciodată : le dispare şarmul şi se adaugă mulţimii de neveste cumsecade, cu o sinceră vocaţie a normalităţii. Ingineraşi, vaporeni, contabili - ei se aleg cu mândreţele de tigrese care unduiesc sub flacăra stroboscoapelor, sub peticele ameţitoare de lumină emise de globul cu oglinjoare.”
― Mircea Cărtărescu, quote from Nostalgia

I Am America (And So...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.
