“Si ultimul tau gand, cand intinzi disperat bratul si ajungi cu varfurile degetelor la numai cativa centimetri de cordonul de siguranta, este ca, daca vei supravietui vei gasi o cale prin care sa repari ce s-a stricat, pentru a putea spune "da, vreau sa fac parte din nou din lume".”
― Lissa Price, quote from Starters
“We do not mourn the loss of those who die fulfilling their destinies.”

“And I must borrow every changing shape
To find expression ... dance, dance
Like a dancing bear,
Cry like a parrot, chatter like an ape.
Let us take the air, in a tobacco trance”
― T.S. Eliot, quote from The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock and Other Poems
“Oh, my God, you smiled! Mr. American Frown actually smiled!"

"Well, good. Because you could do your face and injury, just smiling like that.”
― Sophie Kinsella, quote from Twenties Girl
“Nothing's perfect, the world's not perfect. But it's there for us, trying the best it can; that's what makes it so damn beautiful.”

Ombria in ShadowBookQuoters 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.
