“És el principi d'una llarga i immortal amistat que un dia, bussejant per aquest gran mar que és la vida, vaig trobar dins d'una ostra que contenia aquesta perla fascinant i brillant que no era groga, sinó de colors.
[De Roger Berruezo]”
― Albert Espinosa, quote from Everything You and I Could Have Been If We Weren't You and I
“As far as I could tell, no one had noticed us. I thought this was what it felt like to be invisible, but when I subtracted Isaac I realized that, until he came along, this was how I had always felt. Not invisible, but a natural part of the background, entitled to all the privileges that came with ownership.”
― Dinaw Mengestu, quote from All Our Names
“Hai bisogno di trovarti un bravo ragazzo e innamorarti. Hai bisogno di trovare qualcuno che si innamori di te.”
Gli angoli della bocca di Shane tremarono. “Be’, non ho mai avuto grandi speranze a Rattlesnake, ma forse la coppia di ospiti del mese scorso mi presenterà un bravo ragazzo. Ma non importa. Anche se sarò sposato con due bambini e avrò un delizioso giardino recintato, la città sarà sempre pronta ad accoglierti a braccia aperte, le appartieni. Piaci alle persone. E sarò sempre tuo amico, Jimmy Dorsett.”
― Kim Fielding, quote from Rattlesnake
“You don’t reason with a lightning bolt or negotiate with a hurricane,”

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.
