“Viele sagen, sie "lieben die Natur". Das heißt, sie sind nicht abgeneigt, je und je ihre dargebotenen Reize sich gefallen zu lassen.
Sie gehen hinaus und freuen sich über die Schönheit der Erde, zertreten die Wiesen und reißen schließlich eine Menge Blumen und Zweige ab, um sie bald wieder wegzuwerfen oder daheim verwelken zu lassen. So lieben sie die Natur.”
― Hermann Hesse, quote from Peter Camenzind
“There were many times when logic was of no comfort.”
― Patricia Highsmith, quote from Deep Water
“First, I need to convince you that human progress has, on balance, been a good thing, and that, despite the constant temptation to moan, the world is as good a place to live as it has ever been for the average human being – even now in a deep recession.”
― Matt Ridley, quote from The Rational Optimist: How Prosperity Evolves
“Dr. Len recommends going inside, to wherever you feel hurt by a particular person or issue, and then saying each of these four statements with as much feeling as possible—thinking through the real reasons why you genuinely feel this way: “I love you. I am sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you.”27”

Simon vs. the Homo S...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.
