“He did not say so, but the words behind the words told me that he would rather have launched me into a good marriage than watch me row against the tide at my own work. It remains that a woman with an incomplete emotional life has herself to blame, while a man with no time for his heart just needs a wife.”
― Jeanette Winterson, quote from Gut Symmetries
“Foul weather didn't know where to have him.”

“A short time before the war, some cultivated, intellectual, warm-hearted German friends of mine returned to Germany after living in the United States. In a very short time they turned into sworn Nazis. They refused to listen to the slightest criticism about Hitler. During a return visit to California, they met an old dear friend of theirs on the street, who had been very close to them and who was a Jew. They did not speak to him. They turned their backs on him when he held his hands out to embrace them. How can such a thing happen, I wondered. What changed their hearts so? What steps brought them to such cruelty? These”

“Это действительность. Я все это видела и чувствовала, поэтому грезить днем мне нелегко. Грезы наяву вызывают у меня ожесточенную неприязнь, я чувствую, что надежда во мне умерла. Это страшно. Не знаю, смогу ли жить только реальностью. Иногда пытаюсь вести себя как робот: сделай то, пойди туда, не забудь сделать это. Но помогает только на короткое время. Я — плохой робот, все еще человек, думающий и чувствующий, ни от того ни от другого мне не отучиться. Поэтому вот сижу и пишу обо всем, что произошло, и нет мне дела, съедят ли мыши мои записки.”
― Marlen Haushofer, quote from The Wall

The Attributes of Go...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.
