“I still loved him. I never stopped loving him, and never stopped hoping that he would fall back in love with me as well.”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“I don’t know why you’re crying… but I hope it’s because you’re as in love with me half as much as I am in love with you.”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“So, how’s big Kev?”

“One drunken evening filled with passion, carelessness and Jagermeister.”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“It’s a girl!” I was beaming. It was real. She was real. Inside of me was a little girl. One who would need guidance and love and self-esteem. A girl who would stand at my ankles and look up at me with reverence and admiration and expect that I would and could protect her from anything in the whole world. A delicate little lady who would one day ask me about life and death, and sex and love, and all of the scary things I had had to learn on my own. A little, sweet angel that would never have to question my love and support for her. A precious, innocent heart that was mine to care for and nurture. My little girl.”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“No, you weren’t an accident. You were absolutely meant to be in my life. It was just the means in which you came to me that were unexpected.”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“My mother was almost never wrong. Hard to believe, yet painfully true. And if perchance the stars failed to align, causing the earth to shift and her to be wrong, it was always best not to point it out to her.”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“take me without her. My campus apartment was very generic. Not”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“Sydney, I don’t know why you’re crying…but I hope it’s because you’re in love with me half as much as I’m in love with you,”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“He’s engaged, she can’t have kids, and this barren bitch is trying to take Grace instead!”
― Dina Silver, quote from One Pink Line
“إن الملامح التي تبيح أسرار الذات المعنوية تكسب الوجه جمالاً وملاحة مهما كانت تلك الأسرار موجعة و أليمة .
أما الوجوه التي لا تتكلم بصمتها عن غوامض النفس وخفاياها فلا تكون جميلة مهما كانت متناسقة الخطوط و الأعضاء .”
― Kahlil Gibran, quote from The Broken Wings
“Each memory, good and bad, was another invisible thread that bound them together...It was as simple and complicated as that. Love after children, after you've hurt each other and forgiven each other, bored each other and surprised each other, after you've seen the worst and the best...-well, that sort of love is ineffable. It deserves its own word.”
― Liane Moriarty, quote from What Alice Forgot
“The pathway to hell was paved with good intentions, but what about the wrongs committed for the right reasons? Were they included as well? Life had taught him that anything that starts wrong, ends wrong. In this case, he supposed that only time and its unpredictable mercies would tell. - Percy”
― Leila Meacham, quote from Roses
“…the warm glazes, the sparkling penumbra of the room itself and, through the little window framed with honeysuckle, in the rustic avenue, the resilient dryness of the sun-parched earth, veiled only by the diaphanous gauze woven of distance and the shade of the trees.”
― Marcel Proust, quote from In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower
“People aren't just people, they are people surrounded by circumstances.”
― Terry Pratchett, quote from I Shall Wear Midnight
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.
