“How did he look at me?" I whispered, suddenly craving validation of Jack's feelings from anyone but myself and my subjective imagination.
Joey sighed, resigned. "Like you were the last chopper out of Baghdad, the last IV in the field hospital, the last funnel cake at the fair. Jesus, I don't know.”
― Natasha Boyd, quote from Eversea

His eyes narrowed. "No, you are not, for if you were, you would be grateful for the better fate Connor has won for you with his blood. Rather than thinking only of yourself, you would be beside him now, tending his hurts.”
― Pamela Clare, quote from Defiant
“التحدث مع الغرباء يكون أكثر صدقاً، بحيث يبعث ما تكنّه في صدرك. إلا أن التحدث مع الأصدقاء والأقارب -أب وأم وزوجة وزوج وأخ وأخت- يشتمل على الكثير من المحظورات في اللاوعي: (لا تقل هذا، فقد يجرح شعوره. ولا تفعل ذاك فقد لا تحبه. ولا تتصرف على هذا النحو، والدك مسن وقد يُصدم) . وهكذا يواصل المرء عملية التحكم والمراقبة. فتسقط الحقيقة شيئا فشيئا إلى قبو كيانك، وتتمرس بالحذاقة والذكاء في استخدام التزييف. فتواصل الابتسام بابتسامات زائفة، مرسومة فقط على شفتيك.”
― Osho, quote from Intimacy: Trusting Oneself and the Other
“You and I were created by God to be so much more than normal…Following the crowd is not a winning approach to life. In the end it’s a loser’s game, because we never become who God created us to be by trying to be like everybody else.”
― Tim Tebow, quote from Through My Eyes
“A small part of my mind is willing me to walk away now before he has the opportunity to do just that to me, but I find it easy to ignore it.”
― Jodi Ellen Malpas, quote from Promised
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.
