“What do you think you’re doing?” she asks, hands on her hips. Her lips quiver a bit as she speaks, though, and I get the distinct impression she’s trying not to laugh. I sigh, used to being falsely accused of wrongdoing by my naturally suspicious parents. “I fell.” I attempt to shrug my shoulders, but they don’t move. “And now I’m stuck,” I add.”
― Wendy Mass, quote from Finally
“Sometimes the universe, it wants us to pause for a moment. To reflect on what’s happening in our lives.”

“I’ll be a great babysitter. I already know Rule #1: Don’t give coins to toddlers unless you enjoy sifting through what used to be pizza when it went in, but no longer looks (or smells!) anything remotely like pizza when it comes back out.”
― Wendy Mass, quote from Finally
“Truly being able to see the needs of others around you, that is a rare gift. Only when you embrace it will you start to learn who you are, and begin going after what you really want.”

“VISTA es lo que ves con tus ojos. VISIÓN es lo que ves con tu mente.”
― Robert T. Kiyosaki, quote from Rich Dad's Retire Young, Retire Rich: How to Get Rich Quickly and Stay Rich Forever!
“طی این ماه دراز که به اندیشیدن گذراندم،هر احساسی را شناختم،درد و لذت،غم و شادی،ایمان و نارضایی و نا امیدی...خداوندا!چه تن نحیفی برای آزمون برگزیدی!همچنان که احساسی جای خود را به احساس دیگر می داد مثل تب زده ها به خود می لرزیدم و چشمانم را اشک پر می کرد.سی روز پیاپی برای اندیشیدن به یک اندیشه ی واحد زمان درازی است،برای تعمق درباره ی عمیق ترین گناهان و پشیمانی ها و برای غور در این تصور که همه ی اعمال گذشته یکراست به دوزخ اشاره می کند...من به آن زاهد که تقدسش در چهره اش نوشته شده،به پرنده ای که در آسمانش و بهشتش پرواز می کند،به ماهی در اقیانوسش،حسادت می کنم،حتی به جانوری وحشی که در بیشه می خزد حسادت می کنم،چون همه ی آن ها خاطری آسوده دارند.گذشته ای که در گناه سپری شده باشد بار سنگینی است!”
― Camilo José Cela, quote from The Family of Pascual Duarte
“Needing people yet being afraid of them is wearing me out.”
― Janice Galloway, quote from The Trick is to Keep Breathing
“I used to be endlessly troubled by meat-eating people who were uneasy with hunters and hunting. ... How can someone suggest that paying for the slaughter of animals is more justifiable than taking the responsibility for one's food into one's own hands? ... Civilization is a mechanism that allows us to avoid the necessary but ugly aspects of life; most of us do not euthanize our own pets, we don't unplug the life support on our own ailing grandparents, we don't repair our own cars, and we don't process our own raw sewage. Instead, the delegations of our less-pleasant responsibilities is so widespread that taking these things on is almost like trying to swim upriver. It's easier not to do them, and those who insist on doing so are bound to look a little odd.”
― quote from American Buffalo: In Search of a Lost Icon
“The day you decide to lock yourself in your prayer closet to spend some quality time with the Lord in prayer — that is the day you will enter Heaven’s classroom here on earth with the Holy Spirit as your Teacher.”

Hackers & Painters:...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.
