“Gray was two people from different worlds coming together unexpectedly and creating something new. Gray took the best parts of us both and fit them together into something larger than we were apart.”
― Tara Sue Me, quote from The Dominant

Cans, because it was her who show me that I could be much more than the world thought. We could be much more than the world thought. - Nathaniel West”

“Before the real city could be seen it had to be imagined, the way rumours and tall tales were a kind of charting.”
― Michael Ondaatje, quote from In the Skin of a Lion
“Sternly she tried to frown the unseemly sensation down. Burgeon, indeed. She had heard of dried staffs, pieces of mere dead wood, suddenly putting forth fresh leaves, but only in legend. She was not in legend. She knew perfectly what was due to herself. Dignity demanded that she should have nothing to do with fresh leaves at her age; and yet there it was--the feeling that presently, that at any moment now, she might crop out all green.”
― Elizabeth von Arnim, quote from The Enchanted April
“To speak out aloud when alone is as it were to have a dialogue with the divinity which is within.”

“I’m living in separate universes, and I have no idea where I actually belong.”

“In order to verify the conservation of energy, we
must be careful that we have not put any in or taken any out. Second, the energy
has a large number of different forms, and there is a formula for each one. These
are: gravitational energy, kinetic energy, heat energy, elastic energy, electrical
energy, chemical energy, radiant energy, nuclear energy, mass energy. If we total
up the formulas for each of these contributions, it will not change except for energy
going in and out.
It is important to realize that in physics today, we have no knowledge of what
energy is. We do not have a picture that energy comes in little blobs of a definite
amount. It is not that way. However, there are formulas for calculating some
numerical quantity, and when we add it all together it gives "28"'—always the
same number. It is an abstract thing in that it does not tell us the mechanism or
the reasons for the various formulas.”
― Richard Feynman, quote from The Feynman Lectures on Physics

The Reality Dysfunct...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.
