“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.”

“Be an independent thinker at all times, and ignore anyone who attempts to define you in a limiting way.”
― Sherry Argov, quote from Why Men Love Bitches: From Doormat to Dreamgirl—A Woman's Guide to Holding Her Own in a Relationship
“În afara actului sexual, sunt puţine clipe în viaţă când trupul exultă de simpla bucurie de a trăi, când se umple de bucurie prin simplul fapt al prezenţei sale în lume. Ziua de întâi ianuarie a fost plină de asemenea clipe. Păstrez doar amintirea acelei plenitudini, nimic altceva. Probabil c-am înotat, ne-am încălzit la soare şi-am făcut dragoste. Nu cred să fi vorbit ori să ne fi plimbat pe insulă. Îmi amintesc mirosul pe care-l avea Valérie, gustul sării ce i se usca pe sex. Îmi amintesc c-am adormit în ea, şi c-am fost trezit de contracţiile vaginului ei.”
― Michel Houellebecq, quote from Platform
“You're the only one here with your own fan club”
― Mari Mancusi, quote from Gamer Girl
“On the screen it rained and rained confetti, for minutes, and that glitter-rain, plus the cameras flashing and the lights from the billboards and the awesome mass of the crowds in their shiny hats and toothy smiles, made the world pop and shine and blur in a way that makes you sad to be watching it all on your TV screen, in a way that makes you feel like, instead of bringing the action into your living room, the TV cameras are just reminding you of how much you're missing, confronting you with it, you in your pajamas, on your couch, a couple of pizza crusts resting in some orange grease on a paper plate in front of you, your glass of soda mostly flat and watery, the ice all melted, and the good stuff happening miles and miles away from where you're at.”
― Emily M. Danforth, quote from The Miseducation of Cameron Post
“The secret of life', he said, 'is to become very very good at somethin' that's very very 'ard to do.”

The Enchanted Forest...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.
