“I’d bet a month of dawn patrols those apprentices had something to do with it,” Birchfall meowed. “Why else would they disappear back to ShadowClan without their mother?”
Dustpelt let out a snort of amusement. “I can just picture those three holding Blackstar down until he agreed.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Long Shadows
“Go and don't come back, you can take the catmint. I have no quarrel with ThunderClan; I don't want to see cats suffer, whatever you might think. Just be careful you don't end up like a bully like your kin, Tigerstar.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Long Shadows
“There are useful herbs growing near the oak tree by the stream," Flamepaw pointed out "Littlecloud would come for these" his tail curled up in amusement "Then we could pelt Blackfoot with acorns and he'd think they came from StarClan”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Long Shadows
“Stars blazed above Hollyleaf ’s head, reminding her that the spirits of her ancestors were watching over her.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Long Shadows
“— Нельзя, чтобы об этом узнали в племени! — взволнованно воскликнула Остролистая. — Что если нас тоже накажут? Вдруг подумают, что мы давным-давно знали правду? Нет, давайте договоримся никому ничего не рассказывать! Может быть, Уголек еще передумает?
— Ага, и ежи стаями полетят в теплые края, — усмехнулся Львиносвет.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Long Shadows
“— Он кашляет все хуже и хуже! Когда ты принесешь ему кошачью мяту, бездельник?
«Когда ежи полетят!» — огрызнулся про себя Воробушек.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Long Shadows
“I’m here!” Squirrelflight’s voice was high-pitched with terror. “I’m going to push a branch through to you. You can run along it to escape before it catches fire.” “Right. We’ll be ready,” Lionblaze replied. Hollyleaf felt a jolt of gratitude for her brother’s courage. Without him, she was certain she would have panicked, trapped between the fire and the long drop into the camp. But they would stick together, the three of them, protected by the prophecy as they had always been. Hollyleaf could hear the sound of something heavy being dragged through the undergrowth beyond the flames. Her burst of confidence blew away like ash. “She’ll never manage it,” she muttered to Lionblaze. “What about her wound? She’s not strong enough.” “Squirrelflight will always do what she has to,” Lionblaze replied. Small tongues of flame were creeping through the grass now; rain”

“- Que ondas enormes... - exclamou Thomas Buddenbrook.- Repara como se aproximam e rebentam, se aproximam e rebentam, uma atrás da outra, sem fim, sem propósito, mecânica e desordenadamente. E, no entanto, o seu marulhar é tão tranquilizador e reconfortante, como todas as coisas simples e necessárias da vida. Aprendi a gostar cada vez mais do mar... dantes, talvez preferisse as montanhas, porque ficavam mais longe daqui. Agora já não me atraem nada. Creio que apenas sentiria medo e vergonha. É que elas são muito caprichosas, tão irregulares, tão diversas... de certeza que me iria sentir muito pequeno ao pé delas. Que espécie de pessoas serão essas que preferem a monotonia do mar? Tenho a impressão de que são as que observaram por demasiado tempo- e com demasiada profundidade- as teias do seu mundo interior e que a única coisa que exigem agora, pelo menos do mundo exterior, é simplicidade... Não se trata de comparar as escaladas audazes pela montanha com o descanso sereno na areia da praia. Adiferença reside no olhar que se dirige numa e noutra direcção. Olhos seguros, obstinados e felizes, transbordantes de iniciativa, determinação e vitalidade, erram de cume em cume, ao passo que sobre a imensidão do mar- e das ondas que, conduzidas por um fatalismo místico e hipnótico, dançam e volteiam- repousa um olhar sonhador e velado, sábio e desalentado, o olhar de quem já alguma vez espreitou as profundezas e vislumbrou o triste caos da existência... Saúde e doença, é essa a grande diferença. Intrépidos, escalamos a extraordinária diversidade das montanhas denteadas e acidentadas, das alturas que rasgam os céus, a fim de pormos à prova a nossa vitalidade, intacta ainda. Repousamos, contudo, na ampla simplicidadedo mundo exterior, quando estamos cansados do caos que reina no interior.”
― Thomas Mann, quote from Buddenbrooks: The Decline of a Family
“This is the gift of your species and this is the danger, because you do not choose to control your imaginings. You imagine wonderful things and you imagine terrible things, and you take no responsibility for the choice. You say you have inside you both the power of good and the power of evil, the angel and the devil, but in truth you have just one thing inside you - the ability to imagine.”
― Michael Crichton, quote from Sphere
“The single most powerful asset we all have is our mind. If it is trained well, it can create enormous wealth in what seems to be an instant.”
― Robert T. Kiyosaki, quote from Rich Dad, Poor Dad
“یکبار با توشیهیکو سکو، دوندهی المپیک، مصاحبه میکردم. تازه بازنشسته شده بود و او را مربی تیم "اس اند بی" کرده بودند. از او پرسیدم:«تا به حال پیش آمده دوندهای در سطح شما روزی نخواهد بدود و به جایش دوست داشته باشد در خانه بخوابد؟»
لحظاتی خیره نگاهم کرد و سپس با صدایی که از طنینش پیدا بود چه سوال احمقانهای را باید جواب دهد، گفت: «مسلما. هرروز!»”
― Raymond Carver, quote from What We Talk About When We Talk About Love

Making MoneyBookQuoters 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.
