“Do not presume to know me, or the ways of the Lord,”
― L.E. Modesitt Jr., quote from The Parafaith War
“I suppose, like most young people nowadays, boredom is what you dread most in the world, and yet, I can assure you, there are worse things.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from Towards Zero
“The Nuru men, and their women, had done what they did for more than torture and shame. They wanted to create Ewu children. Such children are not the children of forbidden love between a Nuru and an Okeke, nor are they Noahs, Okekes born without color. The Ewu are children of violence.
An Okeke woman will never kill a child kindled inside of her. She would go against even her husband to keep a child in her womb alive. However, custom dictates that the child is the child of her father. These Nuru had planted poison. An Okeke woman who gave birth to an Ewu child was bound to the Nuru through her child.”
― Nnedi Okorafor, quote from Who Fears Death
“Moved by deep love, a man is courageous. And with frugality, a man becomes generous. And he who does not desire to be ahead of the world becomes the leader of the world.”
― Howard Fast, quote from The Immigrants
“Jer, put do najintimnijeg dela našeg bića znači dugo putovanje kroz druge ljude i svetove. Tako sam se vratio ocu. Ali, kao što obično biva, tada je već bilo prekasno. Da sam onda znao da ga poslednji put vidim krepkog, da sam slutio kako ću ga dvadeset pet godina kasnije zateći pretvorenog u prljavu hrpu kostiju i iznutrica u raspadanju, kako me tužno gleda iz dubine tih očiju koje maltene nisu više pripadale ovom svetu, tada bih pokušao da razumem tog grubog, ali dobrog, snažnog, ali naivnog, naprasitog, ali čestitog čoveka. Izgleda, uvek kasno shvatamo svoje najbliže. A kada počnemo da stičemo izvesnu umešnost življenja, već dođe vreme da mremo. Što je najgore, već su pomrli oni na koje bismo najradije primenili stečenu veštinu.”
― Ernesto Sabato, quote from On Heroes and Tombs

A ManBookQuoters 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.
