“Don't look, part of his mind said. If you don't see trouble, it doesn't exist.
But it does, thought Arthur, fighting down the fear. Keep breathing slowly. You have to confront your fears. Deal with them.”
― Garth Nix, quote from Mister Monday
“Who can I trust?” Arthur blurted out. “Those who wish you well,” said the Old One. “Not those who wish to use you well. Be a player, not a pawn”

“All that that I learn just teaches me that I know nothing.”
― Philippa Gregory, quote from The Lady of the Rivers
“She was a real quiet woman. But maybe we just weren't listening.”
― Brian Malloy, quote from The Year of Ice
“Em, you have a soul.”
“How can you be so sure of that, Hayden? How many people die and come back?”
“No one dies and comes back. You did because of your sister, and you have a gift. Maybe that played a role in your coming back, but you have a soul. You aren’t evil. There’s nothing you can say that will make me think that.”
I looked up and our gazes locked. “And there’s nothing you can say to make me feel differently.”
He lowered his eyes. Thick lashes fanned his cheeks. “I know you do, because I wouldn’t want to… to kiss you if you didn’t have a soul.” I froze.
“You… you want to kiss me?”

“For the girls the regular comings and goings restored their superior sense of self, a superiority they had received intact from Moran and which was little acknowledged by the wide world in which they had to work and live. That unexplained notion of superiority was often badly shaken and in need of restoration by the time they came home.”
― John McGahern, quote from Amongst Women
“Zihin, Noel ağacını süsleyen bir lamba devresine benzer. Beyin iyi çalıştığında lambalar pırıl pırıl yanıp söner ve yeterince uyarlanabilir bir yapıdadır, öyle ki ampullerden biri sönse bile sıklıkla geri kalanlar parlamaya devam eder. Ama hasarın yerine bağlı olarak kimi zaman patlamış bir ampul hepsinin kararmasına yol açabilir.”
― Susannah Cahalan, quote from Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness

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.
