“Do you want to know why men name their penis? So the most important decisions in their life aren't made by a stranger.”
― Linda Howard, quote from After the Night


“I think that maybe, if human beings have souls, that maybe their souls are in their eyes. That maybe that’s what the color is. Their souls."
"Well, they say the eyes are the windows to the soul."
"No, that’s not what I mean. I mean, the actual color is kind of like your spirit, like your soul. And the black space, maybe the black space is the tunnel that people talk about when they die. Do you know what I mean? Like when you die, you go into the eyes of the person you’re looking at and walk through their eyes and, at the other end, that’s where heaven is.”
― Brent Runyon, quote from The Burn Journals


“Первое издание «Москва-Петушки», благо было в одном экземпляре, быстро разошлось. Я получил с тех пор много нареканий за главу «Серп и молот – Карачарово», и совершенно напрасно. Во вступлении к первому изданию я предупреждал всех девушек, что главу «Серп и молот – Карачарово» следует пропустить, не читая, поскольку за фразой «и немедленно выпил» следует полторы страницы чистейшего мата, что во всей этой главе нет ни единого цензурного слова, за исключением фразы «и немедленно выпил». Добросовестным уведомлением этим я добился того, что все читатели, особенно девушки, сразу хватались за главу «Серп и молот – Карачарово», даже не читая предыдущих глав, даже не прочитав фразы «и немедленно выпил». По этой причине я счел необходимым во втором издании выкинуть из главы «Серп и молот – Карачарово» всю бывшую там матерщину. Так будет лучше, потому что, во-первых, меня станут читать подряд, а во-вторых, не будут оскорблены.”
― Venedikt Erofeev, quote from Moscow to the End of the Line


“If someone would have the goodness to inform me whether I am assisting at a tragedy or a farce I should be grateful,”
― Georgette Heyer, quote from Cotillion


“The eyes are the windows to the soul”
― Hilary Duff, quote from Elixir

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.
