“When you really love someone, you see all their mess and their brokenness and you love them anyway. In fact, seeing all of that sort of makes you love them more. - Heather Hepler”
― Caisey Quinn, quote from Keep Me Still


“I am so gone. Lost. Her smile, the little sigh she lets out, the way her eyes light up. All of it. I’m broken down and rebuilt. And nothing will ever be the same again.”
― Caisey Quinn, quote from Keep Me Still


“Well, I can promise you something, ” I say, leaning down and pressing my lips gently to the side of her neck just below her ear. “Next time you make me hard in public, I will fuck you in the nearest bathroom. Understood?”
― Caisey Quinn, quote from Keep Me Still


“I love you, Layla Flaherty,” I tell her because I can feel how badly she needs to hear it. “But you already know that, don’t you?”
I watch as her pupils dilate and she licks her lips. “I do.”
“So what are you going to do about it?” I lean back, despite my body’s protest to throw her down and tear her clothes to shreds.
“I’m going to love you right back.”
― Caisey Quinn, quote from Keep Me Still


“What I’m asking you now is if you’re interested in the position. The pay sucks but the benefits are decent.”
― Caisey Quinn, quote from Keep Me Still



“What are you doing here?”…
Thought you might like a ride,” he answers, smiling that tempting smile at me.
“This going to be a regular thing?” I ask out of curiosity as he helps me into the truck.
“Do you want it to be?” He arches an eyebrow and I can’t help but smile back
“If you do.”
“I do,” he says and his grin widens. “I think we’re married now.”

“To be a poor man is hard, but to be a poor race in a land of dollars is the very bottom of hardships.”
― W.E.B. Du Bois, quote from The Souls of Black Folk


“Si las revoluciones no se hacen con palabras, las ideas no se implantan con decretos.”
― Octavio Paz, quote from The Labyrinth of Solitude and Other Writings


“Eu, Darrell Standing, hoje sorrio para mim mesmo no Corredor da Morte por ter sido considerado culpado e condenado à morte por doze jurados respeitáveis e honestos. Doze sempre foi um número mágico do Mistério. Mas esse número não se originou nas doze tribos de Israel. Antes delas, já os contempladores de estrelas colocaram nos céus os doze signos do Zodíaco. E lembro que, quando fui um aesir e depois um vanir, Odin sentava-se para julgar os homens numa assembléia de doze deuses e seus nomes eram Tor, Baldur, Njrd, Freya, Tyr, Brogi, Heimdall, Hdr, Vidar, Ull, Forseti e Loki. Até mesmo nossas valquírias nos foram roubadas e transformadas em anjos e as asas dos cavalos das valquírias se prenderam aos ombros dos anjos. E o nosso Helheim daquela época de gelo e frio tomou-se o inferno de hoje, que é uma morada tão quente que o sangue ferve em nossas veias; enquanto o nosso Helheim era tão frio que o tutano se congelava dentro dos nossos ossos.”
― Jack London, quote from The Star Rover


“He was just standing on an ordinary pavement as cars roared behind him, and there was nothing special about it whatsoever except my heart didn't seem to realise. It soared out of my chest and into the sky, a flash of scarlet in all the blue.”
― Annabel Pitcher, quote from Ketchup Clouds


“It takes courage to say goodbye. To stare at a thing lost and know it is gone forever. Some tears are iron forged.”
― Jay Kristoff, quote from Kinslayer

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.
