“He had a lot of different smiles, and Jane was getting to know them all.”
― Lauren Conrad, quote from L.A. Candy
“Jane was wearing a charcoal shift dress. The black dipped into a love V accented with a large black chiffon bow. A layer of delicate black lace peeked out from the bottom of her dress. Her long blond hair was pulled back tightly into a straight ironed ponytail. Her makeup was simple: coral blush on her cheeks and gunmetal shadow brushed under her blue eyes.”
― Lauren Conrad, quote from L.A. Candy

“This business of really knowing people, deep down, including your own self, it is not something you can learn in school or from a book. It takes your whole being to do it—your eyes and your ears, your brain and your heart. Maybe your heart most of all.”
― James Howe, quote from The Misfits
“I believe in you, Gareth." He gave a pained smile and bent his head so that his forehead just rested against hers. "Believing in me could be dangerous." "Believing in you is all that Charlotte and I have." "And you and Charlotte are all that I have." She smiled. He grinned. "I guess we're in this together, then," she said. "Yes. And do you know something, Juliet? There is no one else I would rather have at my side." They moved closer, their clothes just touching, their body heat mingling. "You'll prove Lucien wrong, I know you will, Gareth. You'll prove all of them wrong." "I do not know if I'm worthy of such blind faith." "I think you are." "Do you?" His brow was touching hers, and he was beaming now, obviously pleased and flattered. "I do." She looked up at him through her lashes, enjoying this light, challenging banter even as a blush crept over her cheeks. "If I thought otherwise, I would have left you and gone back to America." "Juliet!" He drew back, pretending to look genuinely horrified. "What if I fail you both?" "Whether you fail or succeed doesn't matter. It's the effort that counts — and as long as you make it, I shall always stand by you." On impulse, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek. "Thank you, Gareth.

“I sing of a woman with ink on her hands and pictures hidden beneath her hair. I sing of a dog with skin like velvet pushed the wrong way.I sing of the shape a fallen body makes in the dirt beneath a tree, and I sing of an ordinary man who is wanted to know things no human being could tell him.This is the true beginning.”

“I am dying: it's a beautiful word. Like the long slow sigh of a cello: dying. But the sound of it is the only beautiful thing about it.”
― Sonya Hartnett, quote from Surrender
“The man behind the counter seemed to have stopped listening to him. He slid a room key across the fake-wood-grain counter and returned to his scribbled lorem ipsums. Neethan could have gone on for hours with this guy, chatting him up about music made by mentally handicapped people and the myriad challenges of international aid organizations, but this was a person programmed to hand out room keys and swipe credit cards and engage in only the amount of conversation needed to keep such transactions rolling along smoothly. If that meant asking about a guest's gigantic celestial head, then that's just what good customer service was all about.”

V for VendettaBookQuoters 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.
