“يمكن للكولونيل أن يكون شيطانا؛ ولكنه مفيد للزعيم: فكل ما هو سيئ ينسب إليه، بينما ينسب الجيد إلى تروخييو .
هل هناك خدمة وفائدة أكبرمن هده؟ فلكي تستمر حكومة مدة ثلاثين سنة. لا بد من وجود جوني اأبيس يدس يده في البراز. بل ويدس جسمه ورأسه اذا اقتضى الأمر. إنه يحرق نفسه. إنه يستقطب كراهية الأعداء. وأحيانا الأصدقاء. الزعيم يعرف ذلك. ولهذا يستبقيه إلى جانبه ٠ ولولا أن الكولونيل يحمي ظهر الزعيم. لما كان بالإمكان ضمان ألا يحدث له ما جرى لبيريث خيمينث في فنزويلا. وباتيستا في كوبا. وبيرون في الأرجنتين”
― Mario Vargas Llosa, quote from The Feast of the Goat
“The demons were scary, but girls - Well, girls are really terrifying”

“But that's what love is like when it's fresh and new. It's fire and thunder and heat.”
― Carrie Ryan, quote from The Dead-Tossed Waves
“Get married, my friend, you don't know what it means to live alone, at my age. Nowadays feeling alone fills me with appalling anguish; being alone at home, by the fire, in the evening. It seems to me then that I'm alone on the earth, dreadfully alone, but surrounded by indeterminate dangers, by unknown, terrible things; and the wall, which divides me from my neighbour, whom I do not know, separates me from him by as great a distance as that which separates me from the stars I see through my window. A kind of fever comes over me, a fever of pain and fear, and the silence of the walls terrifies me. It is so profound, so sad, the silence of the room in which you live alone. It isn't just a silence of the body, but a silence of the soul, and, when a piece of furniture creaks, a shiver runs through your whole body, for in that dismal place you expect to hear no sound.”
― Guy de Maupassant, quote from Bel-Ami
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.
