“I don't want anyone else but sometimes, surprisingly, there's someone, not the prettiest or the most available, but you know that in another life it would be her. Or him, don't you find? A small quickening. The room responds slightly to being entered. Like a raised blind. Nothing intended, and a long way from doing anything, but you catch the glint of being someone else's possibility, and it's a sort of politeness to show you haven't missed it, so you push it a little, well within safety, but there's that sense of a promise almost being made in the touching and kissing without which no one can seem to say good morning in this poney business and one more push would do it.

-The Real Thing (London 1982), p.73

Today, I bought a copy of the play at the co-op, I thought I should send it to you- out of a sort of politeness.”
― quote from The Divorce Papers


“Mark Twain said, “The two most important days in your life is the day you were born and the day you find out why”
I don't remember the day I was born but I remember the day I found out why.
His name was Deuce.
He was my “why”.
And this is our story.
It is not a pretty one. 
Some parts of it are downright ugly.
But it’s ours.
And because I believe everything happens for a reason, I wouldn’t change a thing”
― quote from Undeniable


“Ne eglaitė, bet didžiulė eglė buvo atitempta ir įvairiaspalvėm elektros lemputėm apkabinėta. Pirmą Kalėdų dieną Majeriui išėjo toks reikalas porą katorgininkėlių viešai pakarti. Jo įsakymu šalia žiburiuojančios eglės buvo pastatytos kartuvės. Tam tikru skambalu iškilmingai buvo sušaukti visi katorgininkai, dailiai išrikiuoti: tuodu katorgininkėliu buvo labai gražiai Kalėdų proga pakarti šalia eglelės su margaspalvėm lemputėm. Taip ir buvo visą Kalėdų pirmą dieną iki vakaro: čia spindi, žybčioja eglė savo žiburėliais, čia šalia jos - pakaruoklėliai kabalduoja.
Pavyzdingas to Majerio skonis buvo!”
― Balys Sruoga, quote from Forest of the Gods


“Grief is a powerful force that settles in the heart like a dark, heavy fog. It was familiar territory to me.”
― Richard Paul Evans, quote from Battle of the Ampere


“There's good sex, and then there's sex where the memory takes up permanent residence in your brain, changes the fucking chemical balance or something so that you crave it like a damn fix.  It makes you jones for it, gets under your skin like an itch.  That's the kind of sex this is.”
― Sabrina Paige, quote from Prick

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.
