― Kate Mosse, quote from Labyrinth

“Pas a pas se va luenh.”
― Kate Mosse, quote from Labyrinth

― Kate Mosse, quote from Labyrinth

About the author

Popular quotes

“The three-story derelict is home to Smitty, Gale, and Gale's baby - a nuclear family nested on the corner - and Ella is accustomed to seeing them on the front steps, waiting for redemption or a cool breeze from the harbor, neither of which seems particularly likely.”
― David Simon, quote from The Corner: A Year in the Life of an Inner-City Neighborhood

“In Ireland, you go to someone's house, and she asks you if you want a cup of tea. You say no, thank you, you're really just fine. She asks if you're sure. You say of course you're sure, really, you don't need a thing. Except they pronounce it ting. You don't need a ting. Well, she says then, I was going to get myself some anyway, so it would be no trouble. Ah, you say, well, if you were going to get yourself some, I wouldn't mind a spot of tea, at that, so long as it's no trouble and I can give you a hand in the kitchen. Then you go through the whole thing all over again until you both end up in the kitchen drinking tea and chatting.

In America, someone asks you if you want a cup of tea, you say no, and then you don't get any damned tea.

I liked the Irish way better.”
― C.E. Murphy, quote from Urban Shaman

“This is how it's meant to be. It shows that everything that exists must one day change - but what is destroyed can be created again with patience and dedication.”
― Morgan Rhodes, quote from Crystal Storm

“Our delight in each other did not happen because he is the perfect man, or because he “loves me like Christ loves the church,” or because he is “sensitive to all my needs.” It didn’t happen because he takes the trash out, or cleans up after himself, or has always made a good living, providing me with all the things most women take for granted. It didn’t happen because he is a strong spiritual leader and always does the right thing. It happened and continues to happen because of the choices I make every day. I never have a chip on my shoulder, no matter how offended I have a right to be—and I do have reasons to be offended regularly. Every day, I remember to view myself as the woman God gave this man. This mind-set helps me be just that: a gift, a playmate, his helper.”
― Debi Pearl, quote from Created to be His Help Meet

“إنّ معظم المفكرين الأصليين يتطورون عن طريق نبذ الدعائم الواحدة تلو الأخرى. وربما يستمرون في إغداق مشاعر الحب على والديهم وبلدهم، إلا أنّ حبهم ينبع من مركز قوة، وهي قوة تبدأ بالرفض.
والواقع أنّ البشر لا يتعلمون أبداً الوقوف وحدهم. فهم كسولون، يفضلون الاستناد إلى ما يدعمهم. وقد يكون الإنسان رياضياً أصيلاً لا ينتابه الخوف، إلا أنّه بالرغم من ذلك، يعتمد على زوجته اعتمداً كلياً. أو ربما كان مفكّراً حرّاً قويّاً بيد أنّه يستعِدّ طمأنينته، من إعجاب بعض الأصدقاء والتلاميذ. خلاصة القول، إنّ البشر لايختبرون أبداً دعائمهم، بل يختبرون قسماً منها ثم يسلّمون جدلاً بالبقية.”
― Colin Wilson, quote from The Mind Parasites

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.
