“Glynis no sólo trabajaba (o había trabajado) con metal; era metal. Rígida, poco dispuesta a cooperar e inflexible. Dura, refractaria y de una radiante rebeldía. El cuerpo largo, estilizado y anguloso como las joyas y la cubertería que una vez diseñó; en la escuela de artes y oficios no había elegido su medio por casualidad. Se identificaba naturalmente con cualquier material que se negara encarnizadamente a hacer lo que uno quería, cuya forma fuese resistente al cambio y sólo respondiera al trato violento. El metal era un escándalo. Si alguna vez se lo maltrataba, sus abolladuras y arañazos captaban la luz como rencores ocultos.”
― Lionel Shriver, quote from So Much for That
“Down the violet wind slid syrinx melodies, wild as foxes, mad as love, strange as wakening.”
― Cecilia Dart-Thornton, quote from The Battle of Evernight
“I'm sorry. But it's like you said, Emma...I don't have any claws.”
― Joss Whedon, quote from Astonishing X-Men, Volume 3: Torn
“Galen figyelte mindezt, de nem avatkozott közbe… és rendszeresen a földbe döngölte Dmitrit.
A vámpír a legutolsó forduló után letörölte felrepedt ajkáról a vért, és fejcsóválva megjegyezte:
– Mazochistának kell lennem, hogy mindig újra elveretem magam veled.
– Nem. Csak eltökélten javítani akarod a képességeidet.”
― Nalini Singh, quote from Angels' Flight
“I don't think I would have survived that had you not been there. I told you before that your my light, my Sunshine, and baby, if it hadn't been for you shining that light on me today, I wouldn't have escaped that pain.”

So Much for ThatBookQuoters 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.
