“Accurate data on shark attacks on World War II servicemen may never be known since medical records did not note them. In fact, the navy was sufficiently concerned about loss of morale that it discouraged public mention of the menace.”

“I don't think we're ever anybody's, and to believe otherwise will get you hurt.”
― Samantha Young, quote from Into the Deep
“إن شخصًا عاقًلا سيشعر دائمًا، وسط نقاش، بالتبسيط، وستكون رغبته الوحيدة القيام بتشطيبات ووضع علامات نجمية على بعض الكلمات وملاحظات في أسفل الصفحة وتعليقات في نهاية المخطوطة ليعبر حقًا عن فكره. ولكن في نقاش يجري في ركن من ممر، أو أثناء عشاء أو على صفحات صحيفة، قلما يكون ذلك ممكنًا: فالموضوع ليس موضوع قسوة وموضوعية وتجرد ونزاهة. الفضيلة هي عقبلة بلاغية وهي غير ناجعة في جدل. بعض العقول النيرة، التي ترى الخواء الضروري لكل نقاش، اختارت أن تتخابث وتوسوس بالتعقيد عبر المفارقة والدعابة المواربة. لما لا؟ ففي النهاية هذه وسيلة نجاة.”
― Martin Page, quote from How I Became Stupid
“Once upon a time, I was a little girl with a mom and a dad and a sister, and the only monsters in the world were imaginary.

CloudsplitterBookQuoters 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.
