“முதலாவது பாகம் - புது வெள்ளம் முதலாவது அத்தியாயம் ஆடித்திருநாள்”
― Kalki, quote from பொன்னியின் செல்வன் [Ponniyin Selvan]


“இனியபுனல் அருவிதவழ் இன்பமலைச் சாரலிலே
கனிகுலவும் மரநிழலில்
கரம்பிடித்து உகந்ததெல்லாம் கனவுதானோடி - சகியே நினைவு தானோடி..!

புன்னைமரச் சோலையிலே பொன்னொளிரும் மாலையிலே என்னைவரச்சொல்லி அவர்
கன்னல்மொழி பகர்ந்ததெல்லாம் சொப்பனந்தானோடி - அந்த அற்புதம் பொய்யோடி..!

கட்டுகாவல் தான்கடந்து கள்ளரைப்போல் மட்டில்லாத
காதலுடன் கட்டி முத்தம்
ஈந்ததெல்லாம் நிகழ்ந்ததுண்டோடி நாங்கள் மகிழ்ந்ததுண்டோடி..!”
― Kalki, quote from பொன்னியின் செல்வன் [Ponniyin Selvan]


“See you not the dawn after the dark night. The earth shudders, the lotus blossoms. The sun rises to please the world.”
― Kalki, quote from பொன்னியின் செல்வன் [Ponniyin Selvan]

“Aziz winked at him slowly and said: “...There are many ways of being a man; mine is to express what is deepest in my heart.”
― E.M. Forster, quote from A Passage to India


“Margot would say she belongs to herself. Kitty would say she belongs to no one. And I guess I would say I belong to my sisters and my dad, but that won’t always be true. To belong to someone—I didn’t know it, but now that I think about, it seems like that’s all I’ve ever wanted. To really be somebody’s, and to have them be mine.”
― Jenny Han, quote from To All the Boys I've Loved Before


“You've got nothing to worry about. The righteous do not always right, but their souls remain pure. -Lassiter the Angel”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Lover Enshrined


“Tell me again what we're doing here," I said, running a continuous scan of our surroundings.
Fang popped some Cracker Jack into his mouth. "We're here to watch manly men do manly things."
I followed Fang's line of sight: He was watching the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, who were not doing manly things, by any stretch of the imagination.”
― James Patterson, quote from Saving the World and Other Extreme Sports


“She understood his passion because she felt the same way: as if nothing was more important than the touch of her skin to his, as if she'd die if he left her.”
― Patricia Briggs, quote from Cry Wolf

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.
