“earth-toned slate, and the walls were painted in a golden-brown color. Everything looked luxurious. My mother would have died if she saw this place. It looked like a palace. We walked through the hallway into a large open room, which had floors”

“No, sir. I won’t complain. Except when I move it sharp and sudden, my arm is real numb. It’s the rest of me that’s in misery.”
“Where?”
“My backside and my privates. I’m stuck so full of prickers, it makes me smart just to think on it.”
― Robert Newton Peck, quote from A Day No Pigs Would Die
“There's nothing lonelier than grief. Sometimes I wanted to cry out to them all in the middle of History "Please please look at me help me can't you see how unhappy I am?"
But what would have happened? They would have gathered round making soothing noises helping me out of the room maybe offering me tissues...and none of that would touch the deep dark ocean that circled silently inside. They could not see it touch it stop it. I didn't know any way to do that.”
― John Marsden, quote from While I Live
“«Voglio una stanza tutta per me.»
«No.»
«No e basta?»
«Esatto: tu resti qui.» Le parole con me non vennero pronunciate, ma erano sottintese. «Non ho vissuto a lungo a Budapest e non ho passato molto tempo in questa camera, ma è mia.» Come lo sei tu. Anche questo era sottinteso.”
― Gena Showalter, quote from The Darkest Whisper
“I know girls who pine for it. They like to play dress-up and pretend being Vor ladies of old, rescued from menace by romantic Vor youths. For some reason they never play 'dying in childbirth', or 'vomiting your guts out from the red dysentery', or 'weaving till you go blind and crippled from arthritis and dye poisoning', or 'infanticide'. Well, they do die romantically of disease sometimes, but somehow it's always an illness that makes you interestingly pale and everyone sorry and doesn't involve losing bowel control.”
― Lois McMaster Bujold, quote from Komarr
“Страхът бе най-важният посев за годината, надвисваше от плодовите дръечета вместо ябълки и праскови, а пчелите го събираха вместо мед. Изпод повърхността на плитката вода на оризищата избуяваше гъст страх, а из шафрановите поля страх като увивен бурен задушаваше деликатните растения. Страхът затлачваше реките като воден зюмбюл , а по високите пасбища без видима причина измираха овце и кози. Работа се намираше трудно , и за актьори, и за готвачи. Ужасът мореше живата стока като чума.”

AwakenedBookQuoters 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.
