“Speaking of shabby looks, we're going to have to give you a haircut soon.
...WHAT?
These feathers are getting messy.
LET ME UNDERSTAND THIS CORRECTLY. YOU WISH TO CUT MY MANE?
Thunder tigers grow manes?
OF COURSE! HOW ELSE WOULD YOU TELL MALES FROM FEMALES?
This is a trick question, right?
A MANE IS A SIGN A MALE ARASHITORA HAS REACHED MATURITY.
Her laughter rang out in his mind.
So it's going to be a few more decades growing, then?
HMPH. I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW MOST FEMALES FIND IT FETCHING.”
― Jay Kristoff, quote from Endsinger
“But when, through the open door of the cross and the name and power of Jesus Christ, I commend myself to the Father's heart, then God cancels all my past, accepts all my present, swears His holy name for my future and the love of God take me over. Then fear goes out of my heart, because love has come in.”
― A.W. Tozer, quote from The Attributes of God: A Journey Into the Father's Heart
“Polislerin canı cehenneme.güvenimize ihanet ediyorsunuz!
elini bir çocuğun pantolonuna sokan rahiplerin canı cehenneme.
onları koruyan, bizi kötülüğe yönelten kiliselerin canı cehenneme.
konu açılmışken, İsa'nın da canı cehenneme. paçayı ucuz kurtardı.
çarmıhta bir gün, cehennemde hafta sonu boyunca kaldı ve meleklerin ilahileri sonsuza dek onun için söylenecek.
Otisville' de yedi yıl yaşamayı denesene İsa!”
― David Benioff, quote from The 25th Hour
“But you have to admit I wasn’t in my right mind. You had just ridden the intelligence right out of me.”
― Gena Showalter, quote from Burning Dawn

― S.M. Boyce, quote from Heritage
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.
