“For a while there was no other sound than the liquid whisper of my brush across paper, and as I painted,I thought about how the truth can sometimes sound like a lie because we're too afraid to believe it.”
― Marie Rutkoski, quote from The Shadow Society
“Il fitto e alto sorgo risplendeva, freddo e gentile seduceva gli uomini, appassionato e tumultuoso. I venti autunnali erano freddi, forti i raggi del sole, gruppi di nuvole bianche e dense vagavano nel cielo azzurro, facendo scivolare sul sorgo le loro ombre color porpora. Per decine di anni che sembrano un giorno, file e file di persone dalla pelle rossoscura hanno fatto la spola tra i fusti del sorgo come disegnando una rete. Essi hanno ucciso, saccheggiato e difeso lealmente il Paese, muovendosi in una danza eroica e tragica che fa impallidire al confronto noi indegni discendenti e mi fa percepire chiaramente la regressione della specie che accompagna il progresso.”
― Mo Yan, quote from Red Sorghum
“If I lost you... why can’t you see that would be the end of me?”

MahabharataBookQuoters 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.
