“Raphael continued to stare at me, in no hurry to get started. "You know the best way to get rid of a demon, right?" He asked with a serious face. I caught Ivy rolling her eyes as I shook my head.
"Exorcise alot!"
Ivy caught my expression of dismay. "It's okay, Beth. He's famous for his bad jokes. We're still waiting for him to grow up."
"And like Peter Pan, I hope to avoid that at all costs.”

“اللا أحد"
البراغيث تحلم بشراء كلب واللا أحد يحلمون .لنجاه من البؤس انه في يوم سحري ما سيمطر الحظ الجيد عليهم فجأه.لكن الحظ الجيد لم يمطر البارحه. ولن يمطر اليوم..غدا..او بعد غد..او في اي وقت
والحظ الجيد لا يتساقط حتي في رذاذ رائع.مهما عاني اللا أحد في استحضاره حتي ولو كانت ايديهم اليسري مدغدغه او اذا بدأوا يوما جديدا بأقدامهم اليمني او بدأوا العام الجديد بتغيير المكانس
اللا أحد :اطفال لا أحد.الذين لا يملكون شيئا
اللا أحد:الذين ليسوا أحدا..الذين جوعلوا هكذا..يركضون كالارانب..يموتون في الحياه..الثملون بكل طريقه
الذين ليسوا ولكن يمكن ان يكونوا
الذين لا يتحدثون لغات ولكن لهجات
الذين لا اديان لهم و إنما خرافات
الذين لا يبدعون فنا وإنما صنعه يدويه
الذين لا يملكون ثقافه وإنما فلكولورا
الذين ليسوا كائنات بشريه و إنما مصادر بشريه
الذين ليس لهم وجوه بل أذرع
الذين لا اسماء لهم بل أرقام
الذين لا يظهرون في تاريخ العالم بل في دفتر الشرطه وفي الصحيفه المحليه
اللا أحد..الذين ليسوا بقيمه الرصاصه التي تقتلهم”
― Eduardo Galeano, quote from The Book of Embraces
“...instead of the smoldering, soul-baring, Abelard-to-Heloise-sans-castration solicitations you rightfully deserve, you're getting stupefying lines like: "I'm listening to NPR. Do you want to come over and make out?”
― Maria Dahvana Headley, quote from The Year of Yes
“She endured a contentious and passionate relationship with this library. The huge number of books confirmed how much magic she’d been denied for most of her life, and now she hungrily wanted to read every book on every shelf. An impossible task, to be sure, Herculean in its exaggeration, but Corliss wanted to read herself to death. She wanted to be buried in a coffin filled with used paperbacks. She”
― Sherman Alexie, quote from Ten Little Indians
“Silence in the ranks,” said Mrs. Wiggins sternly. She stepped out boldly into full view of the house. “Inside the house, there,” she called. “If there’s anyone there who has any good reason to offer why we shouldn’t come in and tear you to pieces, let him come out under a flag of truce.” There”
― quote from Freddy and the Ignormus
“She closed her eyes and bowed to the cobra, asking his forgiveness, for they had disturbed him in his kingdom. She faced the cobra and drew the waves of fear and anger into herself, dissolving them, and the cobra, seeing the danger was gone, slid on his way into the undergrowth. When the cobra was gone Mr Baldwin laid a hand on Fiona's upper arm, which was cold from fear and shaking, and David's sunbrowned face looked pale with fright. Only Savitri was unperturbed. She looked up to meet Mr Baldwin's gaze.”
― Sharon Maas, quote from Of Marriageable Age
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.
