“Had I only known my letters
Would be of such importance
I’d empty myself on paper
Every single morning’
And it was for such reason,
as she read his little stanza,
that she decided to stamp
one
final
letter:
‘Every single morning
I’d empty myself on paper
You were my greater importance
That’s why I wrote you letters.”
― Mie Hansson, quote from Where Pain Thrives
“A work in progress. And the possibilities are endless.”
― Elizabeth Eulberg, quote from Take a Bow
“It's strange how different we all appear to who we really are.”
― Sarah Pinborough, quote from Behind Her Eyes

― quote from Wake of Vultures
“You are my home. Where you are is home.”

A Wizard of EarthseaBookQuoters 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.
