― T. Rafael Cimino, quote from Mid Ocean
“There are roughly 1,200 dogs trained to detect bombs and bomb making materials in the US - and over 40,000 trained to detect marijuana. Some of the bomb-dogs are also cross trained as drug-dogs which accounts for their ability to sleep well at night.”
― T. Rafael Cimino, quote from Mid Ocean

لكن أنت نفسك يمكن أن تكون واحدا منهم ، في مرات كثيرة يفعل الشخص عكس ما يعتقد تماما ، أو يعتقد أنه يفعل ، أنت على الطريق إلى هذه المملكة ، لكنك تتجه إلى الداخل ، أنت تعتقد أنك تقرأ الكتاب ، ولكنك تعيد كتابته ، عندما تتخيل أنك تساعد فإنك تزرع الأذى ، معظم الناس لايريدون حياه جديده و لاعالما جديدا ، لذلك فهم يقتلون مؤلف الكتاب ”
― Orhan Pamuk, quote from The New Life
“You have the courage and will to overcome your fear and do what's required.”

“Oh, cruel ennui! It must be by mistake that those who have invented the torments of hell have forgotten to ascribe thee the first place among them.”
― Giacomo Casanova, quote from The Story of My Life
“If you can control a man’s thinking you do not have to worry about his action. “When you determine what a man shall think you do not have to concern yourself about what he will do. If you make a man feel that he is inferior, you do not have to compel him to accept an inferior status, for he will seek it himself. If you make a man think that he is justly an outcast, you do not have to order him to the back door. He will go without being told; and if there is no back door, his very nature will demand one.”
― Carter G. Woodson, quote from The Mis-Education of the Negro
“Seré tu guía, Ezio. Pero antes debes aprender a abrir tu mente, y a recordar siempre lo siguiente: nada es verdad. Todo está permitido.”

Broken HarborBookQuoters 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.
