“For you it's not a matter of can or can't do. Once you say you're going to do something, you do everything to make it happen. That's why I wasn't worried. I've always liked that about you.

- Takano to Onodera”
― Shungiku Nakamura, quote from Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: A Boys Love Story, Volume 1


“If I give up now, nothing will have changed. -Onodera Ritsu”
― Shungiku Nakamura, quote from Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: A Boys Love Story, Volume 1


“Maybe the reason I believe reality is crueler...
... is because I've never really loved?
There was a time when I believed that...
..."Hard work will pay off." or "Your feelings will always reach them."
I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse...
...that I found out that that's a myth.
What should I do...
If that's what it means to become an adult,
it's not necessarily unfortunate, but really mundane.
But it's not like I'm being negative,
I just turned my back and I am moving forward...
-Onodera Ritsu”
― Shungiku Nakamura, quote from Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: A Boys Love Story, Volume 1


“How many people do you think get to do the thing they love for work? -Takano Masamune to Onodera Ritsu”
― Shungiku Nakamura, quote from Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: A Boys Love Story, Volume 1


“I tried hard. I gave it my best.'
That's the enthusiasm we don't need, the sort that doesn't produce results. The more you're cornered, the more important it is...
...to make your decisions based on reality and not your personal feelings.

- Takano to Onodera”
― Shungiku Nakamura, quote from Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: A Boys Love Story, Volume 1



“Por otro lado, sé que solo es un manga, pero ¿cómo pueden obtener la felicidad tan fácil?

¿Es la razón por la que creo que la realidad es tan dura, porque nunca he estado en una verdadera relación?

Yo solía creer en dichos como "Serás recompensado con el tiempo" o "Algún día tus sentimientos serán correspondidos" ¿Debo de estar contento de saber que sólo son engaños, no?

Si eso es lo que significa ser un adulto, supongo que no es malo, pero es terriblemente deprimente. Por otra parte, no es como si fuese pesimista o algo así. Solo sigo avanzando sin mirar atrás.”
― Shungiku Nakamura, quote from Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: A Boys Love Story, Volume 1


“―No importaba cuanto trataba de mantener una relación, nunca me olvidé de ti. Por esa razón, haré que me digas que me amas una vez más.”
― Shungiku Nakamura, quote from Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: A Boys Love Story, Volume 1

“God has provided enough evidence in this life to convince anyone willing to believe, yet he has also left some ambiguity so as not to compel the unwilling.”
― Norman L. Geisler, quote from I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist


“Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire, the power to unite people that little else has...It is more powerful in govenments in breaking down racial barriers.”
― John Carlin, quote from Playing the Enemy: Nelson Mandela and the Game That Made a Nation


“Mi pisci imamo neku tajnu koja nas održava u životu i daje nam nadu, mada znamo da to što pišemo nikad nećemo moći da objavimo. Isak Babelj radi na nečemu tajnom, Miša Bulgakov piše roman o đavolu u Moskvi. Ali niko ih nikad neće čitati. Niko ni mene neće čitati.”
― Simon Sebag Montefiore, quote from Sashenka


“The core of science is not controlled experiment or mathetical modeling; it is intellectual honesty. It is time we acknowledge a basic feature of human discourse: when considering the truth of a proposition, one is either engaged in an honest appraisal of the evidence and logical arguments, or one isn't.”
― Sam Harris, quote from Letter to a Christian Nation


“What is left of you once your clothes have had their say?”
― quote from Stuart: A Life Backwards

About BookQuoters

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.
