“On her eighteenth birthday, my mother had disposed of a man-eating tiger that had ravaged the villages in the hills north of Hanoi. Now, without a moment's hesitation, she raised my father's gun, took aim and put a single, irreproachable bullet through my husband's head.”
― Angela Carter, quote from The Bloody Chamber and Other Stories
“Didn't any of these brainless wonders ever notice that TV shows were called programs? the same word that meant a bunch of numbers stuck into a computer to make it dance for its masters?”
― Scott Westerfeld, quote from The Secret Hour
“Well,' I said. 'I could strip off my clothes and reveal to you that under my jeans and sweatshirt I'm actually wearing a tank top and short-shorts, much like Lara Croft from Tomb Raider...only mine are flame-retardant and covered in glow-in-the-dark dinosaur stickers.'
No one stirred. Not even Christopher, who actually has a thing for Lara Croft.
'I know what you're thinking,' I went on. 'Glow-in-the-dark dinosaur stickers are so last year. But I think they add a certain je ne sais quoi to the whole ensemble. It's true, short-shorts are uncomfortable under jeans and hard to get off in the ladies' room, but they make the twin thigh-holsters in which I hold my high-caliber pistols so easy to get to....'
The oven timer dinged.
'Thank you, Em,' Mr. Greer said, yawning. 'That was very persuasive.”

“I’ll be whatever she needs me to be. I can’t walk away from her; I tried. I’m hooked. And now I’m about to lose my mind because I don’t know how to help her. I just need to go find her and hold her the rest of the damn day. I need to know she’s okay.”
― Abbi Glines, quote from Twisted Perfection
“სიტყვები ხომ სიყვარულს ანადგურებს. ვიცი, საშინელებაა, როცა მწერალი ასეთ რამეს ამბობს, მაგრამ, მგონი, ასეა. ირემს რომ უთხრა, ნუ გეშინია, არაფერს გავნებო, კუდს მოიქნევს და გაგისხლტება. სიტყვებიც სწორედ ასე ვნებს სიყვარულს. სიყვარული ხომ ის არ არის, რაც მავან ცინგლიან პოეტს ჰგონია. სიყვარულს კბილები აქვს და იკბინება. მისი ნაკნები არასოდეს რჩება. სიტყვების ვერავითარი კომბინაცია ვერ მოარჩენს სიყვარულის ნაკბენს. ხოლო ჭრილობა თუ შეხორცდა, მაშინ სიტყვებიც კვდება, მთელი ირონიაც ესაა. დამიჯერეთ, თავს სიტყვებით ვირჩენ და ვიცი, რასაც ვამბობ.”

Leo's ChanceBookQuoters 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.
