“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”

“A building is a home if the people who inhabit it have memories and love and a place in the world. Otherwise, it is just a building, a shelter against the elements, and it can never be anything more.”

― Janice Thompson, quote from Fools Rush In
“«Свобода — это приключение, которому нет конца, в котором мы рискуем жизнью и даже большим, чем жизнь, во имя нескольких мгновений чего-то превыше слов, мыслей и чувств.
— Я спрашивал, имея в виду другое, дон Хуан. Я хотел узнать, что может вынудить такого никудышнего бездельника как я, достичь этого всего?
— Поиск свободы — это единственная побуждающая сила, которую я знаю. Это свобода улететь внезапно в бесконечность, которая где-то там. Это свобода умереть, исчезнуть навсегда. Это свобода быть подобным пламени свечи, которая остается неугасимой в мире, озаряемом светом миллиардов великолепных звезд, остается неугасимой потому, что никогда не считает себя чем-то большим, чем есть на самом деле, — всего лишь свечой.»”
― Carlos Castaneda, quote from The Art of Dreaming

This Is Water: Some...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.
