“Maybe it explains the reason why one person likes another. It's because their souls both thrum at the same frequency.”
― Mary Amato, quote from Guitar Notes
“You do realize that you are a termite. You are eating through my soul.”
― Mary Amato, quote from Guitar Notes
“When she talks to Tripp, something nice happens inside of her: a vibration, a thrum. It's as if a tiny wind chime is suspended inside her soul, she thinks, and his words are the wind that makes it ring.”
― Mary Amato, quote from Guitar Notes
“They were lucky to find each other. Nobody could take that away.”

“I cried for the little girl who lost her father but never had a mother. I cried for the girl who only wanted to be accepted, but was never enough. I cried for the girl who suffered unfathomable pain at the hands of hate. I cried for the girl who deserved to be loved but didn't know how.”
― Rebecca Donovan, quote from Out of Breath
“You insisted on thinking of them as angels, even if they were fallen angels.”
― L.P. Hartley, quote from The Go-Between
“إنني أؤمن بأنه توجد فرص في الحياة يتوجب علينا فيها الانقياد لتيار ما يحدث،كما لو أننا نفتقر إلى القوة اللازمة للمقاومة،ولكننا نكتشف فجأة أن النهر قد تحول لمصلحتنا،ولا ينتبه لذلك أحد سوانا،وقد يظن من ينظر إلينا أننا مشرفون على الغرق،في حين أن مركبنا يكون أكثر ثباتا من أي وقت آخر.”
― José Saramago, quote from The Cave
“Evil prevails when good people do nothing.”
― Erin Gruwell, quote from The Freedom Writers Diary
“Mikhail sat up, letting her go so that he could push the sheet from her slender body. Her mind was blocking out every explanation, refusing to deal with the information he was giving her. Wanting to distract her, he bent to examine her abdomen, his fingers splaying possessively over her skin, touching each white scar gently. “Your wounds are nearly healed.”
She half sat, astonished. “That’s impossible.”
He lifted his hands out of the way to show her the long scars. Her eyes widened in disbelief. Mikhail’s eyes darkened and burned, brushed her bare breasts with heat. Raven’s small teeth tugged at her lower lip, and a red flush spread over her entire body. She clutched at the sheet and dragged it over her.
His white teeth gleamed at her in a predator’s smile, pure taunting male. He leaned close so that his mouth brushed across her ear as he spoke. His warm breath beckoned and enticed. “I have kissed every inch of your body. I have been in every secret corner of your mind.” His teeth skimmed her earlobe, sent a shiver along her spine. “I will admit, the blush suits you.”

How To Talk To A Wid...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.
