“She nodded against me. “Do you need me to do anything?”
I didn’t need a thing from her, but I wanted everything. I wanted her to leave Tyler, to love me, to want to live here with me for the rest of our lives. I wanted so damn much.
”Just go back to sleep, then enjoy the rest of the day with the girls. I’ll be back tonight.”
”I’ll be waiting her for you.”
Closing my eyes, I took a deep breath in and held it. if only she knew what she did to me.”
― Molly McAdams, quote from From Ashes

“Jesus doesn't hold back with Nicodemus.
Following Jesus would require a commitment that would cost Nicodemus a great deal....In fact, it's true throughout all of Scripture....Following Jesus isn't something you can do at night where no one notices. It's a twenty-four-hour-a-day commitment that will interfere with your life. That's not the small-print--that's a guarantee.”
― Kyle Idleman, quote from Not a Fan: Becoming a Completely Committed Follower of Jesus
“La televisión digital era magia. Internet también. Incluso el coche del padre, la maquina con la que antes los chicos conseguían dominar por primera vez el mundo físico, ahora la controlaba un ordenador. El diagnostico de un fallo no implicaba ponerse a desmontar un motor y pringarse de aceite. En el concesionario, el coche se enchufaba a otro ordenador impenetrable.
Si al mobiliario técnico de la vida de Zach le pasaba algo —y en estos días las máquinas no chisporrotean encima de uno ni empiezan a soltar extraños bufidos ni se ponen a chillar—, a él nunca se le pasaría por la cabeza la idea de arreglarlo con sus propias manos. Para esas cosas había brujos, aunque el concepto mismo de reparación ya se había vuelto arcano; mucho más probable era ir a comprarse otra máquina que trabajaba mágicamente y que luego, mágicamente también, dejaba de funcionar.
En conjunto, la especie humana estaba volviéndose cada vez más autoritaria en lo tocante a los mecanismos del universo. Individualmente, la experiencia de la mayoría eran una impotencia y una falta de comprensión flagrantes. La gente vivía en un mundo de supersticiones. Se fiaba del vudú, de hechizos y fetiches, de bolas de cristal cuyos caprichos no se podían manejar pero sin los cuales el gobierno de la vida cotidiana se paralizaba. La fe en que el ordenador se encendería una vez más y haría lo que se le pedía tenía un tinte religioso más que racional. Cuando la pantalla se oscurecía, los dioses estaban enfadados.”
― Lionel Shriver, quote from So Much for That
“She had seen what it cost him and her heart quickened with compassion. For that alone, she might have loved him almost.”
― Cecilia Dart-Thornton, quote from The Battle of Evernight
“There's so much you thought you could never face. The decision not to try to control your power, to let it be your demon. Too shameful to remember, so you let it eat your life up instead. But you're past it now, Scott. And all you had to defeat, all you had to let go of...was you. You're free, my love. You're free.”
― Joss Whedon, quote from Astonishing X-Men, Volume 3: Torn
“I don't know why I'm always surprised when vampires act as weird as ordinary humans. It's not like they gain the wisdom of the ages with the transformation.”

HyperspaceBookQuoters 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.
