“there’s not the thickness of a sheet of paper between them. Maybe cowards and heroes are just ordinary men who, for a split second, do something out of the ordinary. That’s all.”
― Victoria Danann, quote from My Familiar Stranger
“Such is the summary style in which the Typees convert perverse-minded and rebellious hogs into the most docile and amiable pork; a morsel of which placed on the tongue melts like a soft smile from the lips of Beauty.”
― Herman Melville, quote from Typee: A Peep at Polynesian Life
“Well, I suppose there could be worse ways to die than cradled in a coffin full of sweet gelatin. I gave up fighting and let my right eye close.”
― Teyla Branton, quote from The Change
“In Sahara, orice om avea timpul, linistea si atmosfera necesara ca sa se regaseasca pe sine, sa priveasca in departare sau in propriul suflet, sa observe Natura care il inconjura si sa mediteze asupra lucrurilor pe care nu le stia mai mult decat prin mijlocirea cartilor sfinte. Dar acolo, in orase, in sate si chiar in minusculele catune berbere, nu aveai pace, nici timp, nici spatiu si erai ametit de zgomote si de problemele celorlalti, de glasurile si certurile celorlalti si aveai impresia ca era mult mai important ceea ce li se intampla altora decat ceea ce ti se putea intampla tie.”
― Alberto Vázquez-Figueroa, quote from Tuareg
“In my whole life, I have known no wise people (over a broad subject matter area) who didn't read all the time -- none, zero. You'd be amazed at how much Warren reads--and at how much I read. My children laugh at me. They think I'm a book with a couple of legs sticking out.”

A Match Made in High...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.
