“Às vezes, no início de um caso, não se pode distinguir entre um espírito humano e um espírito inumano negativo. Ambos podem ser extremamente malvados, e às vezes até trabalham juntos. No entanto, apenas um espírito demoníaco tem o poder de provocar fenômenos negativos extraordinários como incêndios, explosões, desmaterialização, teletransporte e levitação de objetos grandes”
― quote from The Demonologist: The Extraordinary Career of Ed and Lorraine Warren
“You don't go through things with people and not love them for it. It's like those guys in the army who fight in muddy trenches and drag each other out of harm's way and are blood brothers for life because of it all. Only in our case, my mom and I face eviction notices and power shutoffs together.”
― Lara Zielin, quote from The Waiting Sky
“Books have the same enemies as people: fire, humidity, animals, weather, and their own content. —Paul Valéry”

The Traitor's EmblemBookQuoters 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.
