“ومن المفترض أن فهم هيجل شئ صعب،على أن فهم إبراهيم شئ تافه،وتجاوز هيجل يعد معجزة،أما تجاوز إبراهيم فأسهل شئ على الإطلاق،أما أنا-فمن ناحيتي-قد كرست وقتاً طويلاً لفهم الفلسفة الهيجلية،ولكن عندما تكون هناك فقرات معينة لا أستطيع أن أفهمها على الرغم من المشقة التي أخذت بها نفسي،فإنني من الجرأة بحيث أعتقد أن هيجل نفسه لم يكن واضحاً تمام الوضوح”
― Søren Kierkegaard, quote from Fear and Trembling

“Not everyone is meant to stay forever.”
― Danielle Steel, quote from The Gift

“They say that, if we manage to live without too great an effort, it is entirely owing to the automatism which makes us unconscious of a great part of our movements. In order to take one single step, it seems, we displace an infinite number of muscles, and yet, thanks to this automatism, we are unaware of it. The same thing happens in our relations with other people.”
― Alberto Moravia, quote from Contempt

“wanted, a pretty lie, and they believed, because a pretty lie is easier to believe than an ugly truth.”

― Maria V. Snyder, quote from Taste of Darkness

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.
