“Suntem norocosi, noi suntem cei care vom muri. Cei mai multi oameni nu vor muri niciodata pentru ca ei nu se vor naste niciodata. Numarul de oameni potentiali care s-ar fi putut afla aici in locul meu, dar care de fapt nu vor vedea niciodata lumina zilei, depaseste firele de nisip din Peninsula Arabica. Cu siguranta, printre aceste fantome nenascute se afla poeti mai mari decat Keats, oameni de stiinta mai mari decat Newton. Stim acest lucru pentru ca numarul de oameni posibili in urma combinarii ADN-ului nostru depaseste cu mult numarul actual de persoane. In ciuda acestei realitati stupefiante, tu si eu, absolut obisnuiti, suntem aici.”
― Richard Dawkins, quote from Unweaving the Rainbow: Science, Delusion and the Appetite for Wonder


“Lincoln telegraphs his heartfelt reply: 'Let the thing be pressed.”
― Bill O'Reilly, quote from Killing Lincoln: The Shocking Assassination that Changed America Forever

― Pepper Winters, quote from Quintessentially Q


“She was like some kind of balm that made all the ravaged and torn pieces of my soul feel less raw.”
― Jay Crownover, quote from Better When He's Bad

About BookQuoters

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.
