“Just because you're the same kind doesn't mean you're all one happy family. The important thing is to understand each other. That's love!”
― Sun-mi Hwang, quote from The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly
“.هناكَ شيءٌ ما يحدثُ في هذا العالم على الدوام . هناكَ كائنٌ ما يموت و آخر يولد. هناك فراقٌ و لقاءٌ في الوقت نفسه تقربياً. يعني ذلك أنه يستحيل علينا أن نحزن إلى الأبدِ”
― Sun-mi Hwang, quote from The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly
“That's all there is to it. We look different, so we don't understand each other's inner thoughts, but we cherish each other in our own way. I respect you.”

“كان المكان هادئًا رغم انتهاء حياةٍ غاليةٍ على قلبها. كانت الأشجار والنجوم والقمر و العشب كلها هادئة, وكأنها تتظاهر بأنها لم تشاهد أي شيء.”
― Sun-mi Hwang, quote from The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly
“انت مختلفة عن دجاجة باحةالحظيرة. تبدين أكثر ثقة بنفسك, وأكثر مهابة. يا لغرابة ذلك لأن ريشك قد تساقط, لكن مظهرك يبدو أفضل”
― Sun-mi Hwang, quote from The Hen Who Dreamed She Could Fly
“Three more days. That’s what Sven always told me. When you think you’re at the end of your rope, give it three more days. And then another three. Sometimes you’ll find the rope is longer than you thought.”
― Mary E. Pearson, quote from The Heart of Betrayal
“But even if a person were ignorant of such things, the sight of a moving train held aloft above the great gorge at Niagara by so delicate a contrivance was, in the 1860’s, nothing short of miraculous. The bridge seemed to defy the most fundamental laws of nature. Something so slight just naturally ought to give way beneath anything so heavy. That it did not seemed pure magic.”
― David McCullough, quote from The Great Bridge: The Epic Story of the Building of the Brooklyn Bridge
“The wolf was not far away. After only a short time, he crested a nearby hill. His eyes blazing yellow fire. Fierce. For his mistress called. There she knelt. Queenly and yet so wild. Arrow set to bow - spilling out a bloody light.
At the sight of her, passion filled him. It rose in his gut, swelled his chest, then burst out of his throat. It overwhelmed the air and beat against the starry roof. The howl filled the mounds, rang out through the Vale and then rolled into Minonowe.
She had called him and here was his answer.
The spiders were out there. Running. With Luthiel, he would hunt them.”
― Robert Fanney, quote from The War of Mists
“Don't be angry," the Bard said. "Most people live inside a cage of their own expectations. It makes them feel safe. The world's a frightening place full of glory and wonder and, as we've both discovered, danger. Flying isn't for everyone.”
― Nancy Farmer, quote from The Sea of Trolls
“You're the first girl who's had the guts to touch my controls.”
― Jennifer Laurens, quote from Penitence
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.
