“Take a chance on God. After all, He took a chance on you.”
― Susan May Warren, quote from Take a Chance on Me
“It's an awe-filled, wonderful, terrifying act to have a child, for you suddenly wear your heart on the outside of your body. You risk a little more each day as he wanders from your arms into the world.”
― Susan May Warren, quote from Take a Chance on Me
“I’m not wicked.” “Jensen, you’ve spent three years lying low, trying to make everything right. But you can’t redeem yourself. You can’t make yourself and your life whole again. God can.”
― Susan May Warren, quote from Take a Chance on Me
“I'm safe, even if I'm a jerk."
"I have friends who will hunt you down and kill you if I go missing.”
― Susan May Warren, quote from Take a Chance on Me
“Yeah. She's got this pretty red hair, green eyes, a smile that could knock the wind out of a guy -"
Casper was shaking his head.
"What?"
"You're right. You don't deserve her. I think you need to introduce her to me."
Derek grinned and reached for him, but Casper danced away.
"You know, I bet she'll take one look at me and forget all about you anyway, Dare."
"You think so."
Casper took off running.
"Yeah, you'd better run, punk!" Derek yelled after him, grinning.
Take a chance.”
― Susan May Warren, quote from Take a Chance on Me
“But here’s an even better truth: God knows you can’t make it right. None of it. But He can. The day I took a good look at my sins—my real sins—was the day I discovered 1 John 1:9. ‘But if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all wickedness.”
― Susan May Warren, quote from Take a Chance on Me
“The man had all the warmth, all the friendliness, of a pinecone.”
― Susan May Warren, quote from Take a Chance on Me
“So plan A is a bust. God can make plan B better than plan A ever would have been.” Plan B. Or even plan C.”

“Бях уморена; изпотрепвах се от работа и все не вървеше. Кимет не виждаше, че имам нужда от малко помощ, вместо цял живот все аз да помагам, никой не ме забелязваше и всички изискваха все повече от мен, сякаш не съм човек. А Кимет, дай му да взема гълъби и да ги подарява. В неделя излизаше със Синтет. А ни беше казал, че иска да сложи кош на мотора, за да излизаме всички. Той със сина отзад, а аз в коша с дъщерята. Но, както казах, в неделя излизаше със Синтет и мисля, че отиваха да патрулират, както си бяха наумили. Понякога все още се оплакваше от крака, но веднага млъкваше, тъй като синът ни омотаваше крака си с един парцал и обикаляше столовата, преструвайки се на куц, а Рита след него, вдигнала нагоре ръчички. Кимет се ядосваше, че възпитавам децата като циганчета.”
― Mercè Rodoreda, quote from The Time of the Doves
“And then you run. Because the only thing worse than her being gone is that you're still here.”
― Tricia Rayburn, quote from Siren
“But I believe we all fall in love for some esoteric and simple reason: the first time a man comes to your rescue, the way he holds you when you kiss, his smile that has you endlessly daydreaming. I'm not sure the reason you fall is as important as the fact that you have indeed fallen.”
― David Cristofano, quote from The Girl She Used to Be
“Sheakspeare'in zamanında bir kadının onunki gibi bir yeteneğe sahip olması mümkün değildi. Çünkü Sheakspeare gibi dahiler çalışan, eğitimsiz, alt sınıftan insanların arasından çıkmazlar.
On altıncı yüzyılda büyük bir yetenekle doğan her kadın mutlaka delirirdi, kendini vururdu, ya da köyün dışındaki sessiz bir kulübede geçirirdi hayatının son günlerini, yarı cadı yarı büyücü sanılır, korkulur ve alay edilirdi.”
― Virginia Woolf, quote from A Room of One's Own / Three Guineas
“I loved our mutual corny sense of humor. Underneath all his macho bravado, he was a dork. Just like me.”

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.
