“ ما إن يولد طفل في هذا العالم حتى يكتب أحد الملائكة قَدَرهُ على جبينه ”
― Nahid Rachlin, quote from Persian Girls
“أنتِ مخلوقة كاملة يا عزيزتي , خلقك الله فأحسن تصويرك . وقدرك أن تكوني طفلتي . ما إن يولد طفل في هذا العالم حتى يكتب أحد الملائكة قَدَره على جبينه "
قلت , " لا أرى أية كتابة على جبيني "
" إنها مكتوبة بنوع خاصّ من الحبر "
" هل يبقى ما يكتبه الملاك في مكانه إلى الأبد " ؟
" إذا تضّرع المرء إلى الله فقد يأمر أحياناً الملاك بتغيير الكتابة . لكن لا أحد يدعو الله لتغيير قدره . وأنا أريدك أن تبقي معي إلى الأبد”

― Nahid Rachlin, quote from Persian Girls
“Daimon had been out of prison for about six years. Do the math—two days per weekend, times fifty-two weekends per year, times six years—the numbers are staggering. I think a person could conservatively say Daimon had gotten away with committing three hundred burglaries. The actual number will never be known but is probably closer to six hundred. “Oh,”
― quote from Repeat Offender: Sin City's Most Prolific Criminal and the Cop Who Caught Him
“It's a funny thing, hope. It's not like love, or fear, or hate. It's a feeling you don't really know you had until it's gone.”
― Anna Quindlen, quote from Still Life with Bread Crumbs
“Besides, who says I need to figure out love all at once? It's not a sudden thing. It's gradual, creeping in like a secret and then whispering hints over the cycle of time until you step back and see that all the hints lead to love.
Mother once said love is a choice, not a feeling. But don't feelings come from our choices? Or maybe our choices come from our feelings. I don't know.”
― Nadine Brandes, quote from A Time to Speak
“I had seen Salem’s Lot. Only bad things tapped on your window while you slept. “Trey!”

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.
