― quote from Stray
“While all women are wicked, not all are weak.”
― quote from Stray
“Почти всеки ден, от години вече, взема в ръка перото и пише. Няма имена и няма адреси, които да сложи на пликовете - но има един живот за разказване. И на кого, ако не на нея? Той мисли, че когато се срещнат, ще бъде хубаво да положи в скута ѝ кутия от махагон, пълна с писма и да ѝ каже
- Чаках те.
Тя ще отвори кутията и бавно, когато поиска, ще чете писмата едно по едно и проследявайки по обратния ѝ път километрова нишка синьо мастило, ще прегърне годините - дните, миговете, - които този мъж, преди още да я познава, вече ѝ е подарил.
Или може би просто ще обърне кутията и слисана пред смешния снеговалеж от писма, ще се усмихне, казвайки на този мъж
- Ти си луд.
И завинаги ще го обикне.”
― Alessandro Baricco, quote from Ocean Sea
“I've always resented Hermione, because I wanted to be her so badly and she never seemed to appreciate as much as I thought she should that she got be her. She got to live at Hogwarts and be friends with Harry and kiss Ron, which was supposed to happen to me.”
― Rachel Cohn, quote from Dash & Lily's Book of Dares
“To be all right implies an impossible phase. We hope for mostly right on the best of our days.”

“Not to go on all-Fours; that is the Law. Are we not Men?”
― H.G. Wells, quote from The Island of Dr. Moreau
“If you treat an animal right, they don't run away. They're not like us. They run away from people they don't trust; most times we run away from ourselves.”

Tractatus Logico-Phi...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.
