“In fact, since no one is perfect, it follows that all great deeds have been accomplished out of imperfection. Yet they were accomplished, somehow, all the same.”
― Lois McMaster Bujold, quote from Mirror Dance
“Aren't I supposed to be brave, fearless? Isn't that what the world expects?"
"Screw what the world expects. Think about all the things you've faced. You cracked, but you didn't break. You're still standing. I'd call that fearless. You've already conquered so much.”
― Myra McEntire, quote from Hourglass
“Ko duša izbere navpično pot, ko izbere, da se bo razvijala zavestno z odgovorno izbiro, postane sposobna osvoboditi se svojih lastnih negativnosti. Sega po avtentični moči. Prevzame tako rekoč lastno negativnost, nezavedne namene svojih razdvojenih delov svoje osebnosti. Ko osebnost postane zavestna, ko se razvija v mnogočutno osebnost in postaja integrirana, se frekvenca njene zavesti poveča. Postane celovita. Njene negativnosti odpadejo in kakovost nejne zavesti postane svetlejša. Zdaj že lahko gleda sebe in tiste okoli sebe s sočutnostjo in jasnostjo, z modrostjo svoje duše.”
― Gary Zukav, quote from The Seat of the Soul
“Call me Levi.” Duncan nodded. “Levi, then. ’Tis a fine name to be carrying.” Levi shook his head and chuckled softly. “Keep your flattery for the women, Duncan.” “Why do ye think I’m practicin’?” Duncan winked at him. “I got me a bonny lass to impress. She’s a shy one, but I’m determined to coax her out of hiding.” He wiggled his eyebrows and lifted his knees in a high-stepping jig as he danced his way through the doors, leaving Levi with a hearty dose of laughter rumbling in his chest.”
― Karen Witemeyer, quote from To Win Her Heart
“How did you find out?" "I listened. I lied. The normal things anyone would do who wanted to know something hidden.”

Last Days of SummerBookQuoters 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.
