“The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness cannot understand it”
― Frank E. Peretti, quote from House

― 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.”

“Unlike my mother, my father does not cry quietly. His wails roll out like a wave of pain, and I scramble to roll up my window. My mother cannot hear that. I cannot bear to hear it myself. I am not used to my father's crying. I've had no time to harden my heart against him.”
― Margaret Peterson Haddix, quote from Double Identity
“لعشر سنوات كنت خلفا لهؤلاء السلف الذين سحبوا العبيد من غابات افريقيا الى السفن المنتظرة على الشاطئ لكننى كنت النموذج الاحدث فى هذا الدرب والاكثر مراوغة لم ار فى حياتى جثث الموتى ولم اشم رائحة اللحم المتعفن ولم اسمع صرخات الالم لكن كل ما فعلته هو نفس الشر ذلك لاننى كان بامكانى ان انتزع نفسى منه ولاننى استطعت ان اقطع كل الاواصر التى تربطنى بآلام الانسانية وعذابات الاجساد وصرخات الالم التى اصممت اذنى عنها ربما فى التحليل النهائى ارى نفسى اكثر اجراما وشرا”

The Eternal Highland...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.
