“The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness cannot understand it”
― Frank E. Peretti, quote from House
“The light came into the darkness, and the darkness did not understand it, but that no longer mattered because the light was now obliteration the darkness.”
― Frank E. Peretti, quote from House
“Killing one person makes you a murderer. Killing a million people makes you a king. Killing them all makes you God.”
― Frank E. Peretti, quote from House
“Light came into the darkness, but the darkness didn't understand it," Susan said. "Look to the light. Only the light can save you from yourself.”
― Frank E. Peretti, quote from House
“Most people are quite dense. They like little white houses with big stained-glass churches and prefer to do their killing with looks and words behind one another's backs."
He paused.
"Welcome to my house. No secrets allowed. Here we all do our killing with guns and axes and knives. It's more bloody than what most people are accustomed to, yes, but it's far less brutal.”

“I've been clinically diagnosed with sociopathy,' I said. 'Do you know what that means?'
'It means you're a freak,' he said.
'It means that you're about as important to me as a carboard box,' I said. 'You're just a thing - a piece of garbage that no one's thrown away yet. Is that what you want me to say?'
'Shut up,' said Rob. He was still acting tough, but I could see his bluster was starting to fail. He didn't know what to say.
'The thing about boxes,' I said, 'is that you can open them up. Even though they're completely boring on the outside, there might be something interesting inside. So while you're saying all of these stupid, boring things I'm imagining what it would be like to cut you open and see what you've got in there.”
― Dan Wells, quote from I Am Not A Serial Killer
“Decía la leyenda que si los cuervos abandonaban la torre, la corona caería e Inglaterra con ella.”
― Galaxy Craze, quote from The Last Princess
“Погледнах през прозореца - покрай мен бягаше чуждата тъма. След това впих очи в мъждиво осветления влак, в който като призрачни прилепи пърхаха наоколо чужди вече представи - един силует; една обронена глава, малко топлина, едно рамо - езиче на пламък от един друг, безименен свят, което приличаше на волтова дъга, на мост, издигнат над бездната. Но този мост не бе в състояние да преведе човек отвъд безграничното отчуждение и безнадеждната самота - не безобидна и сантиментална, а абсолютната безчовечна самота, в която човек е първата, последната и най-самотна искрица живот”
― Erich Maria Remarque, quote from Shadows in Paradise
“I have always suffered from the feeling that it's better to read a good book than to write a poor one; and I've done so much mixed reading in my time that my mind is full of echoes and voices of better men. But this book I'm worrying about now really deserves to be written, I think, for it has a message of its own.”
― Christopher Morley, quote from Parnassus on Wheels
“The three decisions that control your destiny are: 1. Your decisions about what to focus on. 2. Your decisions about what things mean to you. 3. Your decisions about what to do to create the results you desire.”

Enchantress from the...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.
