“Mind if I cut in?’ says the voice. An American voice. My heart flutters then starts beating wildly. It isn’t … It can’t be … But it is. It’s Noah Flynn.”
― Zoe Sugg, quote from Girl Online Going Solo

― Zoe Sugg, quote from Girl Online Going Solo
“Outside there's a chill in the air that reminds me autumn is on the way, even though it's still only September. This time of year is my absolute favourite; the leaves start to turn golden and wither away after their summer of hard work, and the sun seems to shine a lot more clearly as the mist from the summer heat disappears. Everything just seems a little brighter and fresher--a clean slate. That's exactly what I need.”
― Zoe Sugg, quote from Girl Online Going Solo
“There are a lot of maybes, but it's better than the nevers that were there before.”

“But also it is not only expedient, there is something more, a feeling that we of Germany have found our destiny and that the future sweeps toward us in an overwhelming wave. We too must move. We must go with it. Even now there are being wrongs done. The storm troopers are having their moment of victory, and there are bloody heads”
― Kathrine Kressmann Taylor, quote from Address Unknown
“من دیگر آن آدمی نیستم که دو سال پیش بودم. حالا اگر به من میگفتند اجازه دارم یک انسان را به عنوان همنشین آرزو کنم، حتماً دلم میخواست زن سالمندی باشد، یک زن زیرک و شوخطبع که بتوانم هر از گاهی به او بخندم. هنوز خیلی دلم هوای خنده میکند. ولی حتماً او هم قبل از من میمرد و من دوباره تنها میشدم و وضع بدتر از وقتی میشد که هرگز با او آشنا نشده بودم. در آن صورت باید بهای گزافی برای خندیدن میپراختم. بعد هم مجبور میشدم به یاد او هم باشم و این دیگر بیش از حد تحملم بود. اکنون هم تنها پوست نازکی هستم که به روی کوهی از خاطرات کشیده باشند. دیگر بس است. اگر این پوست شکافته شود، چه بر سر من خواهد آمد؟”
― Marlen Haushofer, quote from The Wall
“Anger is simply momentary madness, and sometimes there is strength in silence. After all, he is only throwing words, not stones.”
― Jeff Shaara, quote from Rise to Rebellion
“Happiness is having your very first hickey, put there by a set of soft lips that speak the smoothest words that sound like music to your ears and whispers to your soul.”
― J.M. Darhower, quote from Monster in His Eyes
“I knew, for instance, that rooms where people slept exuded peculiarly human smells just as the goat pen smelt goaty and the cattle kraal bovine. It was common knowledge among the younger girls at school that the older girls menstruated into sundry old rags which they washed and reused and washed again. I knew, too, that the fact of menstruation was a shamefully unclean secret that should not be allowed to contaminate immaculate male ears by indiscreet reference to this type of first in their presence.”

Get Well SoonBookQuoters 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.
