“Bakın şimdi: Bedenin temel kısmı, iyi, evcilleştirilmiş popo temeldir; bu yüzden eylem popodan başlar. Ayrı ayrı kısımların dalları tıpkı bir ağaç gövdesinden çıkar gibi popodan ayak parmağı, eller, gözler, dişler kulaklar olarak çıkıp dal dal dağılırlarken bazı kısımlar, hassas ve mahir işlemeler sayesinde, hafiften diğerlerin içine geçerler. Küçük Polonya Vilayeti'nde "papa" da denilen insan yüzü ise taçtır; poponun gövdesinden ayrı ayrı parçalar halinde büyüyen ağacın yapraklı kısmıdır; demek ki popo tarafından başlatılmış döngüyü papa kapatır. "Papa"ya vardıktan sonra bana, onlar üzerinden yeniden popoya varmak için ayrı ayrı parçalara dönmek kalmıyorsa eğer, ne kalıyor?”

“Diesel rocked back on his heels and grinned at the monkey. “Carl?”
“Eep!” The monkey stood, squinted at Diesel, and gave him the finger.
“Looks like you know each other,” I said.
“Our paths crossed in Trenton,” Diesel said. “How did he get here?”
“Monkey Rescue,” Glo told him. “He was abandoned.”
“Figures,” Diesel said.
The monkey gave him the finger again.
“Does he do that all the time?” I asked Diesel.
“Not all the time.”
“I got him by mistake,” Glo said. “And now we don’t know what to do with him.”
“You could turn him loose and let him go play in traffic.” Diesel said.

“Yes.”
“I’ll send someone.”

Woman on the RunBookQuoters 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.
