“You know marriage is like hunger. You yearn for it till you don’t get the food. Once the stomach is full, you don’t want more on your plate. But then hunger can subside only temporarily. It keeps coming back and that’s how exactly a happy married life keeps going on, with all ups and downs.”
― Shikha Kaul, quote from Hidden Husband
“How could God design millions of new faces each day, keeping in mind the resemblance to the progenitor, who in turn was His genesis?”
― Shikha Kaul, quote from Hidden Husband
“Sometimes you have to leave yourself to the mercy of someone else. Not because you are weak or less powerful, but just because nature wants it that way.
The earth revolves around the sun; even its ego can’t change that as it’s the very basis of its survival. I had left myself to the mercy of God, believing He would help keep me going and still continue to be around.”
― Shikha Kaul, quote from Hidden Husband
“They say you should never hide anything from your doctors and lawyers. Hiding from a doctor could lead your way to heaven (or hell). Hiding from a lawyer could land you behind bars. Doctors give you the right direction to your present and lawyers give a picture to your future. They need to know more than what you could share with your best of friends.”
― Shikha Kaul, quote from Hidden Husband
“Where had all the morality vanished from earth? Were we, women, always meant to live in fear, behave like puppets for the ever-demanding desires of selfish men? Did God forget to add a chapter on women’s prerogative when He was designing and creating this world? Or maybe HE himself was a man; the distinguished ruler whom nobody could question; who could make and amend His own rules as per His wishes and desires.”
― Shikha Kaul, quote from Hidden Husband
“A life-mate is supposed to fulfil the basic standards of a life cycle and a soul-mate is the one purely connected to your heart.”
― Shikha Kaul, quote from Hidden Husband
“There’s no guarantee that all will be perfect but the hope for another day keeps us going.”
― Shikha Kaul, quote from Hidden Husband
“The objective of adding more hours is to achieve the targets and not vice versa.”
― Shikha Kaul, quote from Hidden Husband
“The earth is round. If you stand at the South Pole, it doesn’t mean you are upside down, neither are you on top of the world at the North Pole. You will still remain the same and the earth treats you no differently. So stay grounded. Your places can change, and so can time.”

“The spirit of Edison, not Einstein, still governed their image of the scientist. Perspiration, not inspiration. Mathematics was unfathomable and unreliable.”

“No one beats Steven Seagal, though. He’s not here with any group. I saw him late one night dressed in a cop uniform, out on patrol with some deputies from the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Department. He’s been going out with their SWAT team. We talk a bit, and when he leaves he puts his palms together in front of his face and bows briefly. Then he hops in a cop car and speeds off.”
― Anderson Cooper, quote from Dispatches from the Edge: A Memoir of War, Disasters, and Survival
“There had been absolutely nothing I could do to cover up the love I had for her, no desires or goals or bodies dense enough to bury the need that had consumed me since the first time I'd glimpsed her. She'd stolen something from me that I'd never get back, something she kept hidden deep beneath the surface in places I doubted either of us could see, in places neither of us could define.”

AshBookQuoters 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.
