Popular quotes

“Sandra O'Toole walked back to the nurses' station, remembering what she alone had seen. Kelly's face turning so white that her first reaction to it was that he must be in shock, then the tumult behind her as she reached for her patient -- but then what?

It wasn't like the first time at all. Kelly's face has transformed itself. Only an instant, like opening a door into some other place, and she'd seen something she had never imagined. Something very old and feral and ugly. The eyes not wide, but focused on something she could not see. The pallor of his face not that of shock, but of rage. His hands balled briefly into fists of quivering stone. And then his face had changed again. There had been comprehension to replace the blind, killing rage, and what she'd seen next was the most dangerous sight she had ever beheld, though she knew not why. Then the door closed, Kelly's eyes shut, and when he opened them, his face was unnaturally serene. The complete sequence had not taken four seconds, she realized, all of it while Rosen and Douglas had been scuffling against the wall. He'd passed from horror to rage to understanding -- then to concealment, but what had come in between comprehension and disguise was the most frightening thing of all.

What had she seen in the face of this man? It took her a moment to answer the question. Death was what she'd seen. Controlled. Planned. Disciplined.

But it was still Death, living in the mind of a man.”
― Tom Clancy, quote from Without Remorse

“Only by entering new and unfamiliar worlds can a person change society as well as self.”
― Bill Courtney, quote from Against the Grain: A Coach's Wisdom on Character, Faith, Family, and Love

“ღმერთი კვლავ დუმდა, ხოლო ნისლიდან ხმა მოისმა: ეგება ეს ღმერთი და ის მეორე, მისი მეტოქე რომ გახდება, - უბრალოდ ჰეტერონიმები არიან. და ვინ ან რაა, ვის ჰეტერონიმებადაც ეს ღმერთები მოიაზრებიან? - ცნობისწადილით დასვა შეკითხვა მეორე ხმამ. პესოა, უპასუხა პირველმა ხმამ და სიტყვა ნისლისგან სახეცვლილი, ისე გაისმა, როგორც პერსონა. იესომ, ღმერთმა და ეშმაკმა ჯერ თავი მოიკატუნეს, აქაოდა, არაფერი გაგვიგონიაო, მაგრამ წამსვე შეშინებულებმა გადახედეს ერთმანეთს, რამეთუ შიშს ასეთი თვისება აქვს - აახლოებს და აერთიანებს.”
― José Saramago, quote from The Gospel According to Jesus Christ

“What good were the rules of time when the rules of magic contradicted them.”
― Orson Scott Card, quote from Enchantment

“But real life doesn't travel in a perfect straight line; it doesn't necessarily have that 'all lived happily ever after' bit. You have to work on where you're going.”

About BookQuoters

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.
