“Think you have nine lives, do you? I saved you once.... don't make me save you again.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Crowpaw,I can hear the voices clearly now, this is for me to do.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“I know my name's Squirrelpaw, but I never thought I'd wish that I WAS a squirrel!”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“From now on, wherever you walk, I will walk with you. . . ”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“I've changed my mind. I don't want to be a squirrel any more. I'd rather be a bird!”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“To truly be a medicine cat lies in a cat's heart, and all its five senses. You must be braver than warriors, wiser than a clan leader, humbler than the tiniest kit, more willing to learn than an apprentice...”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Neither of them is right. And neither of them is wrong. Prophecies are strange things. Their words are never clear.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“These mysteries were too much for him; he was a warrior, and all he wanted was to follow the warrior code. But what should he do, when the code did not speak clearly to him?”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Why do Twolegs do anything? If we knew that, our lives would be a lot easier.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“It’s been a long time since Cloudtail ate kittypet food. He was young and stupid then.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Stormfur stopped short when he noticed a glow of admiration in Feathertail’s eyes. Surely his sister couldn’t be interested in Crowpaw? All he ever did was argue and push himself forward as if he were already a warrior. A cat from another Clan—and an apprentice at that!—had no right to start padding after Feathertail. And whatever did Feathertail see in him? Didn’t she know the problems this sort of thing could cause—hadn’t she learned that from their own parents? Then”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Twolegs are mad. Even the smallest kit knows that.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Crowpaw backed off a pace or two, still looking furious, and Feathertail pressed her nose against his flank”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“The Tribe of Endless Hunting has not shown that to me,” Stoneteller replied. “I do not know when the silver cat will come, or from where, but we will know it when he arrives.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“I’m starving!” she announced. “Where’s the prey around here?”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Feathertail gazed into the young prey-hunter’s eyes. She knew Brook believed what she was saying, but she couldn’t forget how Stormfur had thought that this cat was his friend. Stormfur didn’t make friends easily—a legacy of being half-Clan, always feeling as if he had more to prove than other warriors, as if he could never fight hard enough or catch enough prey. Feathertail had watched this she-cat win her brother’s trust, but now she had betrayed him, and would probably see him die in a battle with Sharptooth for the sake of her Tribe.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Medicine cat' means nothing on its own, without an understanding of what should be done--which isn't always what you first think.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise
“Well, I am sure, for we do not achieve this by ourselves, but by the strength of StarClan within us.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise

“It is extraordinary how much strength anger gives one.”
― Renée Knight, quote from Disclaimer
“His look gets me to believe that there are really only two ways out of life, that you leave either unsatisfied or dissatisfied. That you leave either wanting more time or you leave cursing the life you led. That there are people who go through life not questioning a single thing, just doing things the right way, and it goes with the saying that ignorance is bliss. Maybe these people are happy in their lives, maybe they aren't, but when they are laying on their deathbed they start to think maybe they should have questioned more things in life. That they should have tried to be more curious. Unsatisfied. Then there are the people who question every single little thing, the people who are trying to reinvent the way to live life. The people who are searching for the meaning of life. Maybe these people are happy in their lives, maybe they aren't, but when they are laying on their deathbed they start to think maybe they shouldn't have been so ambitious in their life. That they should have just enjoyed the simple things that came their way. Dissatisfied. Then of course there are the people who don't see their deaths coming.”
― quote from Anthology Complex
“The books in Mo and Meggie's house were stacked under tables, on chairs, in the corners of the rooms. There where books in the kitchen and books in the lavatory. Books on the TV set and in the closet, small piles of books, tall piles of books, books thick and thin, books old and new. They welcomed Meggie down to breakfast with invitingly opened pages; they kept boredom at bay when the weather was bad. And sometimes you fall over them.”
― Cornelia Funke, quote from Corazón de tinta
“A majority of people will often choose the familiar things instead of the unknown, even if they are making a choice that they know will harm them. People are afraid to take chances, to try or to fight. People pass countless opportunities in their lives just because they are scared to make a move or do something out of character. There were many times when I was faced with hard and risky decisions, but I picked the unknown if the familiar sounded too dangerous.”

Elephants Can Rememb...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.
