“I've survived beach bunny cheerleaders, a sluthunting , ex-boyfriend, and five years of cross-country camp. I'm not afraid of some throwback to ancient myth with astrocious highlights and a Barbra Streisand nose.”

“I'm just glad you're all right. And if you want to date, I promise I won't gut the little... Male."
She laughed at that. " I can wait until you're ready. I don't want you in jail for it."
Fain smiled. "Very well I'm told ninety is a prime dating age for a human female.”

“Society at large is staggeringly obtuse. If one simply looks to others for their opinions, they lose the ability to think critically for themselves. Progress would never be made if everyone appeared and thought and loved in the same manner.”

“I'm just going to pretend that a very good-smelling, incredibly warm stranger is sitting next to me, a harmless stranger.”
― Laurie Halse Anderson, quote from Catalyst
“И така, загледан в морето и земята, съставляващи човешкия континент, съзирам някои абсурдни, чудовищно образувания, но освен тях и други, които свидетелстват за героични борби. Мога да различа и проследя в дългите виещи се реки загубата на благочинност, вяра и кураж, отклонението от правилния път, постепенното бавно и мъчително изхабяване на душата. Виждам, че границите са отбелязани с широки и груби естествени межди, а също и с променливи като вятъра, тънички и колебливи пунктирани линии. Инстинктивно усещам точно къде ще настъпи климатичното изменение, приемам за неизбежно, че определени плодородни области ще се изтощят и ще пресъхнат, а други пустинно-безводни райони ще процъфтяват. Уверен съм, че митът ще стане реалност в определена фаза на луната и обществени кръгове, и тук-там ще бъде открита известна връзка между непознатите хора, каквито сме били някога, и непознатите хора, каквито сме сега. Убеден съм, че безредието и смешението от миналото ще бъдат отбелязани с предстоящи още по-големи обърквания и безпорядък, че важни са единствено вълненията и хаосът, че трябва коленопреклонно да се възторгнем от тях, да ги въздигнем в култ. Ние, представителите на човешкия род, съдържаме всички елементи, влизащи в състава на земята и въплъщаващи нейната действителна материя, същина и митология, винаги и навсякъде носим в себе си своята променлива география, своя непостоянен климат. Картата на Европа се преобразява пред очите ни; никой не знае къде започва и къде свършва новият континент.”

I Am Malala: How One...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.
