“You are all I ever need.”
― T.S. Krupa, quote from Safe & Sound

“Mucha gente cree que jamás viajeremos al futuro, pero yo creo que lo hacemos cada noche. Duermes y cuando despiertas han pasado cosas increíbles: se han firmado tratados, han cambiado los valores de la bolsa, hay gente que ha roto con su pareja o se ha enamorado en otras partes del planeta, donde la vida sigue...”
― Albert Espinosa, quote from Everything You and I Could Have Been If We Weren't You and I
“didn’t know one another’s names or ages or reasons for being there, and that was fine, because silence isn’t the same when it’s shared. Its sad and lonely sides are shunted off.”
― Dinaw Mengestu, quote from All Our Names
“Pensò al consiglio che gli aveva dato Tom, a quelle che, di fatto, erano state le sue ultime parole: se hai qualcosa da sistemare nella vita, devi farlo ora, finché puoi.
Per la prima volta da quando aveva memoria, Jimmy non si sentiva vuoto. Al contrario, era così pieno che stava quasi scoppiando. Non era un fantasma. “Non sono Tom,” disse ad alta voce. Nessuno si voltò a guardarlo.”
― Kim Fielding, quote from Rattlesnake
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.
