“Think you have nine lives, do you? I saved you once.... don't make me save you again.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Moonrise

― 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

“Why did Mother ask you to help me rescue Gelsi?" I asked Leif.
"She thought I could assist you in some way. Instead, I had tried to-"
"Kill me? You can join the 'I Want to Kill Yelena Guild.' I hear they have six
members in good standing.
Valek is president since he had wanted to kill me twice."
--Yelena to Leif”
― Maria V. Snyder, quote from Magic Study


“All I had to do was die a little, and you get a new planet!"
I expected her to laugh, or at least smile. I did not expect her to slap my arm. "You stupid idiot!" she says, smacking me again. "I don't want the new planet without you!"
Her eyes round as she realizes what she just said. Anytime we'd gotten this close to talking about us before, Amy has shied away from the topic. But now, instead of drawing away from me, she leans closer. Her hair spills over her shoulders, brushing my chest as she leans down. Her fiery joy at learning about the planet is replaced with something else, something warmer like a slow-burning but steady flame.
"It wouldn't be worth it without you," she says, her voice low.”
― Beth Revis, quote from A Million Suns


“I shall never forget my first sight of Mary Cavendish. Her tall, slender form, outlined against the bright light; the vivid sense of slumbering fire that seemed to find expression only in those wonderful tawny eyes of hers, remarkable eyes, different from any other woman's that I have ever known; the intense power of stillness she possessed, which nevertheless conveyed the impression of a wild untamed spirit in an exquisitely civilised body—all these things are burnt into my memory. I shall never forget them.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from The Mysterious Affair at Styles


“We had no choice. We ran into darkness of the early morning leaving everything behind.”
― Lissa Price, quote from Starters


“Tanis at first wondered what the mage was studying, then realized it was his spellbook. It is the curse of the magi that they must constantly study and recommit their spells to memory every day. The words of magic flame in the mind, then flicker and die when the spell is cast. Each spell burns up some of the magician’s physical and mental energy until he is totally exhausted and must rest before he can use his magic again.”
― Margaret Weis, quote from Dragons of Autumn Twilight

About BookQuoters

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.
