“You don't ever play games, make me guess what it is you want, or what you're thinking. You're not afraid of getting dirty, you don't worry about if your hair looks just right, or get angry about having your prom in the woods.”
― Cindy C. Bennett, quote from Heart on a Chain
“Gli abiti che usiamo per la nostra professione per noi sono sacri. Rappresentano l'emblema della nostra vocazione. Realizzati con i tessuti più belli e costosi del mondo, i kimono incarnano la bellezza per come noi la concepiamo. Ciascun kimono è un'opera d'arte unica e colei che lo possiede partecipa attivamente alla sua creazione. In linea generale, si può dire molto di una persona dalla qualità del kimono che indossa: stato economico, gusto, retroterra familiare, personalità. A fronte di piccole variazioni nel taglio, c'è un'enorme varietà di colori e motivi nei materiali usati per realizzare ogni abito. Scegliere un kimono adatto alla situazione in cui verrà indossato è un'arte. Il giusto abbinamento in base alle stagioni è fondamentale. I canoni del gusto tradizionale giapponese dividono l'anno in ventotto stagioni, ciascuna delle quali possiede i propri simboli. I colori e i motivi del kimono e dell'obi dovrebbero rispecchiare la stagione: l'usignolo a fine marzo, per esempio, o il crisantemo nei primi giorni di novembre.”
― Mineko Iwasaki, quote from Geisha, a Life
“And when we are with Alex, I might as well not be there. They speak in a language of whispers and giggles and secrets; their words are like a fairy-tale tangle of thorns, which place a wall between us.”
― Lauren Oliver, quote from Hana
“But I couldn't get the image out of my head of the beast strapped to the table, Father humming while the candle wax slowly dripped, and Montgomery assisting. I felt betrayed, as though the boy I'd idolized was nothing more than a fantasy.”
― Megan Shepherd, quote from The Madman’s Daughter
“This seemed to be how dads taught their boys to be men, but there had to be a point, maybe early on, when they were able to hold their hands. One tiny one engulfed by one big one.”

The Last of AugustBookQuoters 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.
