“Love for others can make even the scaredest of souls become brave in the face of danger.”
― Chanda Hahn, quote from Forever
“Our path dictates how strong we will be and how tall we will grow. Will our life grow into something beautiful, or will we develop thorns for protection.”
― Chanda Hahn, quote from Forever
“I’m plotting my own demise,” she teased, keeping her eyes closed. “Because I know that falling for you will be the death of me.”
― Chanda Hahn, quote from Forever
“I promise to love you forever,” Teague said when he put her back on the ground. He reached down and kissed her knuckles. Mina smiled and spoke softly, “Forever isn’t long enough.”
― Chanda Hahn, quote from Forever
“She created the beast, and now she’d have to destroy him.”
― Chanda Hahn, quote from Forever
“I've spent my entire life reading about the lives other people are having. My world has been... very small. No one believes I would thrive if I weren't kept secluded and protected. Like a flower in a glasshouse. If I marry one of my kind, as you put it, no one will ever see me as I am. Only what I'm supposed to be.”
― Lisa Kleypas, quote from Marrying Winterborne
“If learning lessons from history is a mark of enlightenment, so is breaking free from it.”
― S.L. Bhyrappa, quote from Aavarana - The Veil
“Should I go back to my room tonight?” Ty asked out of the blue. “Or will we be able to work together and fuck each other senseless at the same time?”
― Madeleine Urban, quote from Cut & Run
“As far as I was concerned, physical education was evil. You take a bunch of teenagers, make them strip down in front of each other in a locker room, have them don hideous matching uniforms, and then measure their worth based on their ability to chuck balls at a net, into a hoop, or at each other. It was just. Evil.”
― Emma Mills, quote from First & Then
“Charles a raison, la plupart des hommes se contentent d'un boulot, d'un toit, de quelques heures de repos le dimanche et ils s'estiment heureux comme ça; heureux d'être tranquilles, pas d'être en vie ! Que leurs voisins souffrent, tant que la peine ne pénètre pas chez eux, ils préfèrent ne rien voir; faire comme si les mauvaises choses n'existaient pas. Ce n'est pas toujours de la lâcheté. Pour certains, vivre demande déjà beaucoup de courage.”
― Marc Levy, quote from The Children of Freedom
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.
