“His rage passes description - the sort of rage that is only seen when rich folk that have more than they can enjoy suddenly lose something that they have long had but have never before used or wanted.”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“To think I should have lived to be goodmorninged by Belladonna Took's son, as if I was selling buttons at the door!”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“Adventures only make you late for dinner.”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“I don't think I know your name.'
'Yes, yes my dear sir and I do know your name Mr. Bilbo Baggins. And you do know my name, though you don't remember that I belong to it. I am Gandalf, and Gandalf means me.”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“In those days of our tale, there were still some people who had both elves and heroes of the North for ancestors and Elrond, the master of the house, was their chief. He was as noble and as fair in face as an elf lord, as strong as a warrior, as wise as a wizard, as venerable as a king of dwarves and as kind as summer.”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“What do you mean?" he said. "Do you wish me a good morning, or mean that it is a good morning whether I want it or not; or that you feel good this morning; or that it is a morning to be good on?"
"All of them at once," said Bilbo. "And a very fine morning for a pipe of tobacco out of doors, into the bargain.”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“Hush, hush! Good People! and good night!" said Gandalf, who came last. "Valleys have ears, and some elves have over marry tongues. Good night!”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“If the elf-king had a weakness it was for treasure, especially for silver and white gems; and though his hoard was rich, he was ever eager for more, since he had not yet as great a treasure as other elf-lords of old.”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“Back now to the mountain!" cried Thorin. "We have little time to lose." "And little food to use!" cried Bilbo, always practical on such points. In any case he felt that the adventure was, properly speaking, over with the death of the dragon.”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“ولی خب ، عجیب است تعریف چیزهای خوبی که آدم داشته و روزهای خوشی که گذرانده خیلی طول نمیکشد و زیاد هم شنیدنی نیست اما از چیزهای ناراحت کننده و دلهره آور و حتی فجیع ، قصه خوبی در می آید.”
― Chuck Dixon, quote from The Hobbit: Graphic Novel
“Yes, yes and i want to get unlost... As soon as possible!”

“If there is life after death, indeed life before life, then it would make more sense to me for it is as though I have known you always, through time and space and despite all logic, I know you as I know myself, as no one else does.”
― Tami Egonu, quote from Bird
“So before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the tribe against the world. And all of us against the infidel.”
― Leon Uris, quote from The Haj
“...for the purity of first light is bliss
and surely the whole point of faith
is just in this: -
Not that we believe
but that we ask of He
to have faith in us.”
― Gabriel Brunsdon, quote from Azlander: Second Nature
“And I think that if I started to tell someone how I felt I’d never be able to stop so it’s easier just to not feel anything because that way there’s no issue.”
― Cecily Anne Paterson, quote from Invisible
“Life is about the good and the bad. Good is easy. Bad is hard. Finding a way to make good from the bad is the secret. The few who discover the ability within themselves--nothing can stand in their way of happiness.”

The Vengekeep Prophe...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.
