“You are my drug of choice, and I plan to overdose.”
― Angie Stanton, quote from Snapshot
“Because I need you more right now than I need to breathe.”
― Angie Stanton, quote from Snapshot
“When a person is so irresponsible and self-centered that they can’t look out for the basic needs of their own family and they actually cause irreparable harm to their own children, that’s totally unacceptable. And when they treat other people like they exist only to serve them, that’s not only rude and offensive, it’s completely wrong. No one on this earth should be allowed to step on other people just to build themselves up.”
― Angie Stanton, quote from Snapshot
“We need something fun to remember when we look back at our youth.”

“But Musa’s body will remain a mystery. There’s not a word in the book about it. That’s denial of a shockingly violent kind, don’t you think? As soon as the shot is fired, the murderer turns around, heading for a mystery he considers worthier of interest than the Arab’s life.”
― Kamel Daoud, quote from The Meursault Investigation
“Hastings hunched at the rickety table in Interview Room C, doing a pretty good job of looking bored. The dribbles of sweat along his temples were the only sign he was feeling the heat.
Eve dropped into the chair across from him, flashed a big, friendly smile. "Hey. Thanks for dropping by."
"Kiss my white, dimpled ass."
"As tempting as that is, I'm afraid I'm not allowed to make such personal contact."
"You kicked my balls, you oughta be able to kiss my ass."
"Rules are rules.”
― J.D. Robb, quote from Portrait in Death
“Leave it to a vampire to think a healthy guy in his late thirties or early forties was on his deathbed.”
― MaryJanice Davidson, quote from Undead and Unpopular
“It’s the same with people who say, ‘Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.’ Even people who say this must realize that the exact opposite is true. What doesn’t kill you maims you, cripples you, leaves you weak, makes you whiny and full of yourself at the same time. The more pain, the more pompous you get. Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you incredibly annoying.”
― Rob Sheffield, quote from Love Is a Mix Tape
“I sat down and knitted for some time - my usual resource under discouraging circumstances.”

If He Had Been with...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.
