“ხალხი არასოდეს აჯანყებულა გაუთავებული ჭაპანწყვეტის გამო, ან იმისათვის, რომ მძიმე ტომრის ტარება უწევთ. მან ხომ, უბრალოდ, არ იცის სხვა ცხოვრება, ანუ ცხოვრება დიდი ძალისხმევის გარეშე. წარმოდგენაც კი არა აქვს, რომ ასეთი რამ საერთოდ არსებობს. მაშ, როგორ შეიძლება მოითხოვო ის, რაც არ იცი, რაც შენს წარმოსახვაშიც არაა?! ხალხი მხო-ლოდ მაშინ ბუნტდება, როდესაც მოულოდნელად, ერთი ხელის აქნევით ვიღაც შეეცდება ზურგზე მეორე ტომარაც წამოჰკიდოს. მაშინ გლეხი ვერ უძლებს და ხელს ნაჯახს სტაცებს. და ის, ძვირფასო მეგობარო, ნაჯახს იმიტომ კი არ იღებს ხელში, რომ ვერ ზიდა მეორე ტომარა, არა, ის მასაც წაიღებდა! გლეხი ჯანყდება იმიტომ, რომ, მისი აზრით, მეორე ტომარა მოულოდნელად და ჩუმად აჰკიდეს მხრებზე, ანუ შეეცადნენ მოეტყუებინათ, როგორც უგონო ცხოველი, შეურაცხყვეს მისი ღირსება და ჩათვალეს სულელად, რომელიც ვერ ხედავს, ვერ გრძნობს, ვერაფერს იგებს. გლეხი ნაჯახს არა ჯიბის, არამედ ადამიანური ღირსების დასაცავად იღებს.”
― Ryszard Kapuściński, quote from The Emperor


“Sólo quienes abordan los problemas de manera subjetiva, unilateral y superficial dictan órdenes presuntuosamente apenas llegan a un nuevo lugar, sin considerar las circunstancias, sin examinar las cosas en su totalidad (su historia y su situación actual en conjunto) ni penetrar en su esencia (su naturaleza y las relaciones”
― Mao Zedong, quote from Quotations from Chairman Mao Tsetung


“Appena il tuo ricordo accarezza la mia anima,
mi vedo bruciare d'amore per te,
consumato dai rimpianti,
e le lacrime mi imperlano le palpebre.”
― quote from The Arabian Nights: Tales of 1001 Nights, Volume 1


“You do know you’re a woman, right?” I ask.
“Are you sure?” Olivia asks with an astonished face. “I thought I had a penis.”
― Katelin LaMontagne, quote from Surge


“Gaza Writes Back' provides conclusive evidence that telling stories is an act of life, that telling stories is resistance, and that telling stories shapes our memories.”
― Refaat Alareer, quote from Gaza Writes Back (#1)

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.
