“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”

“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

“- يجب أن أستخدم حريتي. أن آكل الثمرة.
- ستموتين.
- لن أموت. إنه يتمنى أن آكل الثمرة. لهذا جعلني حرّة.
- بإمكانك أن تقرري عدم الأكل.
- لا. سيكون ذلك أسهل. وليس ممكناً الآن. فأنا أحتاج إلى المعرفة.
- ألا تخافين؟
- لا أخاف. لقد شاهدت أشياء كثيرة. لماذا شاهدتها إن لم يكن لإدراكها والمجازفة من أجل وجودها؟
- ربما لتقبلي بعدم قدرتك على إدراك كل شيء.”
― Gioconda Belli, quote from Infinity in the Palm of Her Hand: A Novel of Adam and Eve

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.
