A thief and a warrior, by dawn will be gone.”
― Brian Jacques, quote from Mossflower

Roshaun felt Nita’s gaze resting on him, and looked up. “What?”
Nita controlled her smile. “The lollipop…”
“What about it?”
“I hate to say this, but you’re kind of spoiling your grandeur.”
“What grandeur he has,” Dairine remarked.
“Kings are made no less noble by eating,” Roshaun said. “Rather, they ennoble what they eat.”

“اللا أحد"

البراغيث تحلم بشراء كلب واللا أحد يحلمون .لنجاه من البؤس انه في يوم سحري ما سيمطر الحظ الجيد عليهم فجأه.لكن الحظ الجيد لم يمطر البارحه. ولن يمطر اليوم..غدا..او بعد غد..او في اي وقت
والحظ الجيد لا يتساقط حتي في رذاذ رائع.مهما عاني اللا أحد في استحضاره حتي ولو كانت ايديهم اليسري مدغدغه او اذا بدأوا يوما جديدا بأقدامهم اليمني او بدأوا العام الجديد بتغيير المكانس
اللا أحد :اطفال لا أحد.الذين لا يملكون شيئا
اللا أحد:الذين ليسوا أحدا..الذين جوعلوا هكذا..يركضون كالارانب..يموتون في الحياه..الثملون بكل طريقه
الذين ليسوا ولكن يمكن ان يكونوا
الذين لا يتحدثون لغات ولكن لهجات
الذين لا اديان لهم و إنما خرافات
الذين لا يبدعون فنا وإنما صنعه يدويه
الذين لا يملكون ثقافه وإنما فلكولورا
الذين ليسوا كائنات بشريه و إنما مصادر بشريه
الذين ليس لهم وجوه بل أذرع
الذين لا اسماء لهم بل أرقام
الذين لا يظهرون في تاريخ العالم بل في دفتر الشرطه وفي الصحيفه المحليه
اللا أحد..الذين ليسوا بقيمه الرصاصه التي تقتلهم”
― Eduardo Galeano, quote from The Book of Embraces

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.
