“My enemies are everywhere. And sometimes, those we least suspect turn out to be our biggest threats.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Never Have I Ever
“Ew, no!' Laurel said, brushing past him. Dracula covered half his face with his cape, shunned vampire-style, and scooted away to his perch behind the counter.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Never Have I Ever
“We have not meet our destination till we are there for sure.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Never Have I Ever
“Emma still had a lot to learn about me. The only place I went stag was the bathroom.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Never Have I Ever
“German reminded her of an old man hacking up phlegm.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Never Have I Ever
“You don’t have to keep thanking me. I’m not Mother Teresa.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Never Have I Ever
“Jail?" Emma's head whipped up.
Quinlan shrugged. "You're eighteen now, Sutton. It's a whole new world.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Never Have I Ever
“Sutton, I have to talk to you," Mr. Mercer said...
"I'm sorry," she said preemptively.

― Sara Shepard, quote from Never Have I Ever
“(...) al no ser consiente de todo lo que ignoraba, no sufría por ello.”
― Holly Goldberg Sloan, quote from I'll Be There
“Yet slavery isn’t the real cause of the trouble between the regions. It is economics. The South sells its cotton and sugar to England and Europe, and buys manufactured goods from those places instead of from the industrial North. The South has decided it has no need for the rest of the United States of America. Despite Mr. Lincoln’s speeches against slavery, that is the sore that festers.”
― Noah Gordon, quote from Shaman
“THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY PICTURES ARE FLASHED BY WIRE AND RADIO SYNCHRONIZING WITH SPEAKER’S VOICE COMMERCIAL USE IN DOUBT BUT AT&T HEAD SEES A NEW STEP IN CONQUEST OF NATURE AFTER YEARS OF RESEARCH”
― Bill Bryson, quote from One Summer: America, 1927
“At that time, I often thought that if I had had to live in the trunk of a dead tree, with nothing to do but look up at the sky flowing overhead, little by little I would have gotten used to it.”
― Albert Camus, quote from The Outsider
“Our eyes finally meet—he’s still staring at me, lips parted. And I can’t get a read on his expression. As the moments stretch on, a bud of nervousness blooms in my stomach, its vine wrapping around my vocal chords.
“I…I wasn’t sure what you had planned for tonight. You didn’t tell me.”
Those long lashes blink, but he doesn’t say anything. I raise my hand toward the kitchen.
“I can go change if this isn’t—”
“No.” Nicholas steps forward, his hand up. “No, don’t change a thing. You’re…absolutely perfect.”
And he’s looking at me like he never wants to stop.
“I didn’t expect…I mean, you’re lovely…b-but…”
“Wasn’t there a movie about a king who stuttered?” I tease him. “Was he a relative of yours?”
He chuckles. And call me crazy, but I swear Nicholas’s cheeks go slightly pink.
“No, stuttering doesn’t run in my family.” He shakes his head. “You just knocked me on my arse.”
And now I’m beaming.
“Thank you. You look pretty great too, Prince Charming.”
“I actually know a Prince Charming. He’s first-class prick.”
“Well. Now that you’ve tarnished a precious piece of my childhood, this better be some date,” I tease.
“It will be.”
He holds out his hand to me.
“Shall we?”
― Emma Chase, quote from Royally Screwed
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.
