“My mother once said that fear is like a man who, once burned, is afraid of a glow worm”
― Nnedi Okorafor, quote from Who Fears Death
“He found himself grinning at her. His nervousness had disappeared, and suddenly he had a sense of his own size, his physical strength, his own brains and being. Four years, he had earned his own bread and keep, fended for himself, had not only remained alive and well but had put together a small fishing fleet of his own, and kept it alive and functioning and fought the wind and the weather and met a payroll of eleven men in his crews-and be damned with the lot of them if he'd go into a funk over which spoon or knife to use.”
― Howard Fast, quote from The Immigrants
“No hay casualidades sino destinos. No se encuentra sino lo que se busca, y se busca lo que en cierto modo está escondido en lo más profundo y oscuro de nuestro corazón. Porque si no, ¿cómo el encuentro con una misma persona no produce en dos seres los mismos resultados? ¿Por qué a uno el encuentro con un revolucionario lo lleva a la revolución y al otro lo deja indiferente? Razón por la cual parece como que uno termina por encontrarse al final con las personas que debe encontrar, quedando así la casualidad reducida a límites muy modestos. De modo que esos encuentros que en la vida de cada uno nos parecen asombrosos, no son otra cosa que la consecuencia de esas fuerzas desconocidas que nos aproximan a través de la multitud indiferente, como las limaduras de hierro se orientan a distancia hasta los polos de un poderoso imán; movimientos; movimientos que constituirían motivo de asombro para las limaduras si tuviesen alguna conciencia de sus actos sin alcanzar a tener, empero, un conocimiento pleno y total de la realidad. Así, marchamos un poco sonámbulos, hacia los seres que de algún modo son desde el comienzo nuestros destinatarios.”
― Ernesto Sabato, quote from On Heroes and Tombs
“If you're reading this and you think that maybe you could love someone of the same gender (or nongender), all I have to say to you is this: Congratulations! You're perfect and wonderful and more alive than you ever knew. Be proud of who you are because you're already more than enough.”
― Hannah Hart, quote from Buffering: Unshared Tales of a Life Fully Loaded
“It was very exciting for her, taking his dignity away in the name of love.”

The PrestigeBookQuoters 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.
