“You’ve been drinking. Let’s go before I become the asshole prick you think I am.”
― Cristin Harber, quote from Hart Attack
“There’s no other way to look at you. You’re the definition of beauty.”

“Before Beth could warn the dude of the danger, Nicola elbowed him with that special touch of hers. His cheeks puffed out, his brow dropped down, and he doubled over. Not turning her head, she gave Beth a roll of her eyes. “I tried to say ‘go away’ politely.”

“The price of greatness...is responsibility - Winston Churchill”
― Dan Brown, quote from Origin
“In fatto di musica, tutti i suoi gesti erano competenti e armoniosi, che stesse impeciando l’archetto, sostituendo le corde o sistemando la stanza per l’arrivo dei tre compagni del quartetto d’archi che era la sua passione. Era Florence la leader indiscussa del gruppo, e a lei spettava sempre l’ultima parola nelle numerose dispute musicali che si presentavano. In tutti gli altri ambiti della vita, in compenso, era di una goffaggine e di un’insicurezza da lasciare allibiti, un continuo inciampare, far cadere oggetti, andare a sbattere. Le stesse dita capaci di un raddoppio su una partita di Bach si rivelavano altrettanto perfette nel rovesciare intere tazze di tè su tovaglie di lino, o bicchieri di vetro su pavimenti di marmo. Se si sentiva osservata incespicava: confidò a Edward che andare incontro a un amico da una certa distanza era per lei un supplizio. E ogni ansia e momento di timidezza la portavano a sollevare in continuazione la mano verso la fronte per scostare immaginarie ciocche di capelli in un gesto delicato e nervoso che perdurava ben oltre la scomparsa del motivo che l’aveva scatenato.”
― Ian McEwan, quote from On Chesil Beach
“Stupid movies and their completely inaccurate argument scenes.”

“There’s something else,” he said. “What?” “I wasn’t going to mention it, but I want you to understand why I have to do this.” “Jesus, Jolu, what?” “I hate to say it, but you’re white. I’m not. White people get caught with cocaine and do a little rehab time. Brown people get caught with crack and go to prison for twenty years. White people see cops on the street and feel safer. Brown people see cops on the street and wonder if they’re about to get searched. The way the DHS is treating you? The law in this country has always been like that for us.”
― Cory Doctorow, quote from Little Brother
“Watson," said he, "if it should ever strike you that I am getting a little over-confident in my powers, or giving less pains to a case than it deserves, kindly whisper 'Norbury' in my ear, and I shall be infinitely obliged to you.”

Dante's Divine Comed...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.
