“Be nice. Funny. Smart. Generous. Kind. Feed your body with good food. Your soul with good friends. And your mind with new things.”
― Jillian Dodd, quote from Love Me
“Dawson: Do you want wood from me?

Dawson: That’s not what I meant. I meant woo-ed or however the hell you spell it.”
― Jillian Dodd, quote from Love Me
“Boots, love isn't like a cute pair of shoes. You can't try it on to see if it fits and walk out the door wearing it.”
― Jillian Dodd, quote from Love Me
“That’s what it’s like with Aiden. When he kisses me, I feel like I can see our future. It’s like he has the power to send me mental messages with his mouth. His mouth. The source of all his power.”
― Jillian Dodd, quote from Love Me
“Hey,” I say, my voice lowered, so I don’t wake up Katie. “Hey, Boots,” he says dreamily. I swear I want to wake up to that every morning of my life. To the sound of, “Hey, Boots.”

“And some of the modern admirers of the gentle philosopher-emperor Marcus Aurelius would be less admiring if they reflected on the brutality of his suppression of the Germans, proudly illustrated in the scenes of battle that circle their way up his commemorative column that still stands in the centre of Rome; though less famous, it was clearly intended to rival Trajan’s and was carefully built just a little taller (see plate 10). 70.”
― quote from SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome
“I nodded. It was pretty simple. Eight years now and we knew the routine. We do our job. Only here, our job had been castrated down to nothing but a security detail while they did the work that would get the glory. Hopefully they’d get it soon and ship us back to the U.S.”

The Mysterious Bened...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.
