“I will stop at nothing to make you mine, Onyx.”
― Victoria Ashley, quote from Hemy
“I would give my last breath to be with you.”
― Victoria Ashley, quote from Hemy
“Do you even know what pain feels like, Hemy?” Her jaw clenches as I stare at her. “Well, do you? Do you even feel pain?” “Oh, I feel it alright. That burning sensation deep down inside that feels as if my heart is dying, being crushed.” I look up from the ground and right into her eyes. “I felt it the minute you walked out my damn door.”
― Victoria Ashley, quote from Hemy
“No matter the girl, they all have a wild side waiting to be released.”
― Victoria Ashley, quote from Hemy
“Real men have beards. Grow one,”
― Victoria Ashley, quote from Hemy

“One of my greatest lessons has been to fully understand that what looks like a dark patch in the quest for success is the universe pointing you in a new direction. Anything can be a miracle, a blessing, an opportunity if you choose to see it that way.”
― Oprah Winfrey, quote from What I Know for Sure
“Things do not always work out as we have planned, do they? Sometimes the hardest thing is not to just survive the grief, but to step around it and move on. It helps if your suitcases are not so full.”
― Karen White, quote from The Time Between
“A képek mindent tudnak, legjobban azt, amit leginkább próbálok elfelejteni, ami már nem álom. Hogy egyszer, életemben egyetlenegyszer nem az alvás agyvérszegénységében, hanem valóságban is feltárult énelőttem egy ajtó, amelyet akkor se nyitott volna ki, aki odabenn magányát és tehetetlen nyomorúságát védte, ha már ropog is feje fölött az égő háztető. Azt a zárat csak nekem állt hatalmamban megmozdítani: aki a kulcsot megforgatta, jobban hitt nekem, mint az Istennek, és én is azt hittem magamról abban a végzetes percben, isten vagyok, bölcs, megfontolt, jó és racionális. Tévedtünk mind a ketten, az is, aki bízott bennem, és én is, aki elbíztam magamat.”
― Magda Szabó, quote from The Door
“Fate is like the relationship between the strong and the weak, don’t you think? Look at religion, for example. The Israelites, who worshipped Jehovah—why were they afraid of him? Because their god was powerful, that’s why. Everyone who believes in gods fears them to some extent.”
― Fuminori Nakamura, quote from The Thief
“I don’t believe the answers are written on her breasts, Elder Merrick.” My”

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.
