“Es ist nur ärgerlich – wenn du es nicht erfreulich nennen willst -, dass es in der Musik – Wenigstens in der Musik – Dinge gibt, für die im ganzen Bereich der Sprache beim besten Willen kein wirklich charakterisierendes Beiwort, auch keine Kombination von Beiworten aufzutreiben ist. Ich habe mich dieser Tage damit geplagt, - du findest keine adäquate Bezeichnung für den Geist, die Haltung, die Gebärde dieses Themas. Denn es ist viel Gebärde darin. Tragisch-kühn? Trotzig, emphatisch, das Elanhafte ins Erhabene getrieben? Alles nicht gut. Und ‚herrlich‘! Ist natürlich nur eine alberne Kapitulation. Man landet zuletzt bei der sachlichen Vorschrift, dem Namen: Allegro appassionato, das ist noch das Beste.”
― Thomas Mann, quote from Doctor Faustus
“It pains me to think how much you are worth now."

“NANCY DREW began peeling off her garden gloves as she ran up the porch steps and into the hall to answer the ringing telephone. She picked it up and said, “Hello!” “Hi, Nancy! This is Helen.” Although Helen Corning was nearly three years older than Nancy, the two girls were close friends. “Are you tied up on a case?” Helen asked. “No. What’s up? A mystery?” “Yes—a haunted house.”
― quote from The Hidden Staircase
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.
