“It's easier to just let it go. It hurts alot less”
― Michelle Leighton, quote from Fragile
“I want you cool and regal, earthy and impertinent, spoiling for a fight and abashed at your own temper. I want you flushed with exertion and rosy with sleep. I want you teasing and provocative, somber and thoughtful. I want every emotion, every mood, every year in a lifetime to come. I want you beside me, to encourage and argue with me, to help me and let me help you. I want to be your champion and lover, your mentor and student.”
― Connie Brockway, quote from The Bridal Season
“Appearances and manners often cloak a black soul.”
― Julie Garwood, quote from The Lion's Lady
“Не знаю, как другие женщины, а моя жена так сотворена, что даже если она занималась этим днем и продолжила ночью, и так день за днем, ей все будет мало. После встречи с любовником проделать то же самое с ненавистным мужем должно быть невыносимой пыткой, но она - исключение. Даже, если я ей противен, её плоть не может мне отказать. Как бы ни пыталась она меня отвергнуть, вожделение возьмет верх, и она подчинится ему с еще большим самозабвением. Я забыл, что именно это делает шлюху шлюхой...”

Nick & Norah's Infin...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.
