“There is a sign in the heavens
Another light in the darkness
A better time is beginning
There is a fire star coming
I see the mark of the ice bear
In the tears of the dragon
And you'd better start wishing
There is a fire star coming
Stay with me, my love......
....Until the stars have blinked their last
Wherever on this earth you walk
He will arouse, excite, inspire,
My Valentine, my one dark fire.......
”

“The problem, as I see it, are the twin human creations of marriage and religion. It is marriage and religion that make copulation complex and hurtful. Marriage brings up notions of trust, cuckoldry and ownership, while religion makes certain kinds of intimacy sinful.”
― Matthew Reilly, quote from The Tournament
“Coming home is hard." Ven said.
"It shouldn't be" Daleina said. "They love me. I love them. It should be easy."
"Once you leave, it's never easy again. Or at least it's never the same. You're not the same. You can't expect them to be.
She nodded. "Sometimes they feel like strangers. And still, I'd die to protect them.”

“كان هنالك شعورٌ غامض يهمس لي بأنك إذا رأيت أحدًا -كائنًا من كان- على حقيقته، ولم تخفِ ما رأيته عن نفسك فلم تستطيع الإقتراب منه مجددًا. لكنني لم أرد أن أكون أحد محبي الحقيقة. كنت مدركًا بأنني لن أتحمل أي حقيقة قد تبعدني عنها. بعد عثورنا على أهم وأغلى الأشياء الموجودة فينا من أجل أرواحناـ أليس تجاهل التفاصيل، أو بتعبير أصح، التضحية بالحقائق الصغيرة من أجل الحقيقة الكبرى أكثر إنسانية وإنصافًا؟ ... لم يكن بي حنق على أحد، ما كان يضايقني هو فقط شعوري بالوحدة، وبسبب تأثيرات هذه الوحدة فأنا مستعد لخداع نفسي في نقاط كثيرة تجاه الإنسان الذي أحسست بالقرب منه.”
― Sabahattin Ali, quote from Madonna in a Fur Coat
“Everyone is believed to have two faces—one they show to the public and one they wear in private. The first face is their shaxsiat, or their honor. The second face is their ehteram, their dignity.”

Captain BloodBookQuoters 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.
