“VI. If any could desire what he is incapable of possessing, despair must be his eternal lot.”
― William Blake, quote from The Complete Illuminated Books
“I to właśnie wówczas, w ciemności, uświadomiłem sobie po raz pierwszy w życiu, że jedynie samotność jest w życiu człowieka stanem graniczącym z absolutnym spokojem wewnętrznym, z odzyskaniem indywidualności. Tylko w pochłaniającej wszystko pustce samotności, w ciemnościach zacierających kontury świata zewnętrznego można odczuć, że się jest sobą aż do granic zwątpienia, które uprzytamnia nagle własną nicość w rosnącym przeraźliwie ogromie wszechświata.”
― Gustaw Herling-Grudziński, quote from A World Apart
“From its creation in 1913, the most important Fed mandate has been to maintain the purchasing power of the dollar; however, since 1913 the dollar has lost over 95 percent of its value. Put differently, it takes twenty dollars today to buy what one dollar would buy in 1913.”

Oscar and LucindaBookQuoters 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.
