"I'm never late," Galen returned. "You should know by now that the party doesn't begin until I'm here.”
― Cayla Kluver, quote from Legacy
“At some point the choice you will face is whether to carry out your duties or live your life”

“And it was a most remarkable, a most moving glance, as if for a moment a lighthouse had looked at me.”
― Ford Madox Ford, quote from The Good Soldier
“In every one of us is the total of all we have ever been, the sullen child, the arrogant youth, the suckling babe. Every fear endured in childhood is lodged somewhere in here.' He tapped his temple. 'And every act of heroism or cowardice, generosity or meanness of spirit.”
― David Gemmell, quote from Lord of the Silver Bow
“Mooch? What does that word mean?”
Ellie smiled. “It’s a term when you live with someone and take something freely from the person who has to work for it. It’s not a good thing. It’s hard to explain that one. I guess I could describe it as I’m a burden to him.”
“How? He already had a room you could have.”
Ellie struggled with her thoughts. Some words were hard to explain. “Yes. He did but usually you don’t live with someone unless you are a couple. Then it is acceptable if you share food and a home. If you aren’t, then both parties are supposed to work, similar to a partnership, be equal. I am not his girlfriend or his partner. He provides a home and food for me while I give him nothing in return. I’m a mooch.”
“I think I understand.” Breeze smiled. “And you are not a mooch. He doesn’t know what one is so therefore you can’t be what he doesn’t know exists.”
― Laurann Dohner, quote from Fury
“То и аз самият възприемах вече нещата по друг начин, бях започнал сам да се шегувам със себе си, за нищо вече не се нуждаех от никого. Присъствието на хора ми тежеше, чувствах, че накрая ще почна да си говоря сам със себе си, и че това ще бъде моят най-мил и най-приятен събеседник, този мой втори аз, мой насърчител и мой възпитател в самия мен, с когато вече все по-често и с все по-голямо удоволствие подхващах разговор. Вероятно това стана и под влияние на всичко чуто от професора, който надминаваше себе си в ругатните, ни един каруцар не можеше да се мери с него, така да ругае и коне, и хора, както ругаеше професорът по френска литература и естетика… като при това не спираше да ни разказва за всичко, което интересуваше и самия него, говореше през цялата вечер, още докато отворя вратата, та чак докато заспи, докато всички заспим, до последния миг разказваше що е то естетика, що е етика, за философите и философията.”
― Bohumil Hrabal, quote from I Served the King of England
“Yet, unless he sets up as a saint, he need not hate himself for them. He is better employed, as it humbly seems to me, in giving thanks that power to resist was vouchsafed to him, than in fretting over wicked impulses which come unsought and extort an unwilling hospitality from the weakness of our nature.”

Batman: Arkham Asylu...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.
