“SkyClan's destiny is that we will never live in isolation from other cats. We're not like forest Clans, we can't shut ourselves off entirely from kittypets or rogues. And visitors will be welcome.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from SkyClan's Destiny
“You're no better than Sharpclaw and Sparrowpelt. They look down their noses at us because we stay loyal to our housefolk as well as our Clan. I thought you were different, Leafstar, but I was wrong”
― Erin Hunter, quote from SkyClan's Destiny
“You have to stop thinking about Billystorm in that way, right now! You have a different destiny, one that involves the future of the whole Clan. And it is a path that you must walk alone.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from SkyClan's Destiny
“It’s been so hard!” she whispered. “I don’t know what our destiny is!”
Cloudstar bent his head toward her. “Your destiny is what you make it, Leafstar.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from SkyClan's Destiny
“The mister days that letters are the key, but even when you know the whole family, there's so many combinations you can make. And they break their word.”
― Gregory Maguire, quote from Out of Oz
“picture flash into my mind. I could just see Aunt”
― Janice Thompson, quote from Fools Rush In
“«В лунном свете холмы вокруг города были ясно видны и почти узнаваемы. Я пытался сориентироваться, наблюдая за Луной и звездами так, словно я находился в реальной повседневной жизни. Месяц был на ущербе, вероятно, был первый день после полнолуния. Он находился высоко над горизонтом. Должно быть, было между восемью и девятью часами вечера. Я видел Орион справа от Луны; две главные звезды — Бетельгейзе и Ригель — находились на одном уровне с Луной. Я определил начало декабря. Мое время было — май. В мае Орион нигде в это время суток не виден. Я смотрел на Луну очень долго. Ничего не изменилось. Это была Луна, насколько я мог судить. Несоответствие во времени очень меня взволновало.»”
― Carlos Castaneda, quote from The Art of Dreaming
“How fragile life was, how fleeting their days on earth, and how fickle was Death, claiming the young as often as the old, the healthy as often as the ailing, cruelly stealing away a baby’s first breath, a mother’s fading heartbeat.”
― Sharon Kay Penman, quote from Lionheart
“I meant what I said, Mays. I love you. So damn much. And you'll wake up in the morning and realize you threw away something fucking perfect for NOTHING!”
― A. Meredith Walters, quote from Bad Rep
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.
