“You are all I ever need.”
― T.S. Krupa, quote from Safe & Sound
“— Minha cara, enxaqueca de viúva é falta de homem na hora de dormir. Tem remédio fácil, compra-se com o casamento…
— Casamento? Deus me livre e guarde…
— Também não é obrigatório… Pode tomar o remédio sem casar, o que não falta por aí é homem, minha cara — e ria tagarela.”
― Jorge Amado, quote from Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands
“Reason, intellect, and logic are historical phenomena. There is a history of logic as there is a history of technology. Nothing suggests that logic as we know it is the last and final stage of intellectual evolution. Human logic is a historical phase between prehuman nonlogic on the one hand and superhuman logic on the other hand. Reason and mind, the human beings’ most efficacious equipment in their struggle for survival, are embedded in the continuous flow of zoological events. They are neither eternal nor unchangeable. They are transitory.”
― Ludwig von Mises, quote from Human Action: A Treatise on Economics
“Tell me what good touch is and what is bad for I am young and I have no dad. -Jenifer”
― Durgesh Satpathy, quote from Equating the Equations of Insanity: A Journey from Grief to Victory

Bared to YouBookQuoters 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.
