“You and I are impossible." she said.
"No." Gently, he brushed the hair back from her face. "We are what's real and true.”
― Anne Blankman, quote from Prisoner of Night and Fog
“con levantar el puño, odiar al que tienen por encima y cantar La Internacional van a arreglar poco; a ritmo de himnos no se cambia un país. Razones para rebelarse, desde luego, tienen de sobra, que aquí hay hambre de siglos y mucha injusticia también, pero eso no se arregla mordiendo la mano de quien te da de comer. Para eso, para modernizar este país, necesitaríamos emprendedores valientes y trabajadores cualificados, una educación en condiciones, y gobiernos serios que duraran en su puesto lo suficiente.”
― María Dueñas, quote from The Time in Between
“Lives are short, but knowledge is eternal.”
― Rachel Caine, quote from Ink and Bone

Proof of Heaven: A N...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.
