― Natsuki Takaya, quote from Fruits Basket, Vol. 7

“For there to be pain, there has to be kindness. For darkness to standout there has to be the sun. You can't have one without the other, and both have their uses. So even if you stumble and make mistakes, that's not useless. Think of it as fertilizer, sure it feels like crap, but it will help you grow!" ~Kyoko Honda”
― Natsuki Takaya, quote from Fruits Basket, Vol. 7

“Everytime you fall down or take the wrong path, it isn't wasted. You will surely develop and grow over time.”
― Natsuki Takaya, quote from Fruits Basket, Vol. 7

“Even if you've never experienced the wonderful things in life, only after something has been contaminated and marred will it become a beautiful thing. Pain can be healed with gentle care, darkness can be removed with sunlight. Don't underestimate the small things. Everything is significant.”
― Natsuki Takaya, quote from Fruits Basket, Vol. 7

“Tu nie ma wody tu jest tylko skała
Skała bez wody i piaszczysta droga
Droga wijąca się wśród gór nad nami
Między skałami głazami bez wody
Gdyby tu była woda stanąłbym i pił
Lecz pośród skał nie można myśleć ani stać
Suchy jest pot a stopy grzęzną w piachu
Gdyby tu woda spływała ze skał
Martwa jest paszcza gór spróchniałe zęby pluć nie mogą
Tutaj nie można usiąść leżeć ani stać
I ciszy nawet nie ma w górach
Tylko bezpłodny suchy grzmot bez deszczu
I samotności nawet nie ma w górach
Tylko posępne czerwone twarze - drwią i szydzą
W drzwiach lepianek z popękanej gliny
Gdyby tu była woda
A nie skała
Gdyby tu była skała
Ale i woda
I woda
Źródło
Sadzawka wśród skał
Gdyby tu był chociażby wody dźwięk
A nie cykada
I śpiew suchych traw
Ale na skale wody dźwięk
Gdzie drozd-pustelnik śpiewa pośród sosen
Krop kap krop kap kap kap kap
Ale tu nie ma wody

Kim jest ten trzeci, który zawsze idzie obok ciebie?
Gdy liczę nas, jesteśmy tylko ty i ja
Lecz gdy spoglądam przed siebie w biel drogi
Zawsze ktoś jeszcze idzie obok ciebie,
Stąpa spowity płaszczem brunatnym, w kapturze
Nie wiem czy jest to kobieta czy mąż
- Kim jest ten, który idzie po twej drugiej stronie?

Co to za dźwięki wysoko w powietrzu
Pomruk matczynych lamentów
Co to za hordy w kapturach, jak roje
Na bezkresnych równinach, utykają na spękanej ziemi
Otoczonej jedynie płaskim horyzontem
Co to za miasto nad łańcuchem gór
Pęka i zrasta się i rozpryskuje - w fioletowym wietrze
Walące się wieże
Jeruzalem Ateny Aleksandria
Wiedeń Londyn
Nierzeczywiste”
― T.S. Eliot, quote from The Wasteland, Prufrock and Other Poems

“Down on Earth,” she said carefully, “there are no people left to draw lines on maps and say which sides of those lines are the right sides. There is no government left. No human government, anyway.”
― Octavia E. Butler, quote from Dawn

“I guess that’s the thing about riding on cloud nine—it can’t last forever. And that particular fall was hard and fast.”
― Hannah Harrington, quote from Speechless

“It was a bookstore, and he felt at home in bookstores, and he hadn’t had that feeling much lately. He was going to enjoy it. He pushed his way back through the racks of greeting cards and cat calendars, back to where the actual books were, his glasses steaming up and his coat dripping on the thin carpet. It didn’t matter where you were, if you were in a room full of books you were at least halfway home.”
― Lev Grossman, quote from The Magician's Land

“Even the good guys,' she said, 'can't win all the time.”
― Witi Ihimaera, quote from The Whale Rider

About BookQuoters

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.
