“I’ll get some more firewood,” I said, turning away from the fire. “What we have won’t last the night.”
“Best do that, I think,” Kith said. “Wandel and I’ll see about dinner.”
“I thought the woman should do the cooking,” said Wandel, teasing but still half-serious. He hadn’t eaten what I could cook over an open fire.
“We’ll cook,” replied Kith, who had.”

“Çünkü toplumsal kriz esnasında bütün giyotin sehpalarının en iğrenci, en lanetlisi, en uğursuzu olan ve kökünden kazınması en çok gerekenin siyasi giyotin sehpası olduğunu söylemek zorundayız. Kaldırımlarda kök salan bu türden bir giyotin sehpası kısa sürede toprağın her yanından sürgünler halinde fışkırır. Devrim dönemlerinde düşen ilk başa dikkat edin. Halkın iştahını açar.

“Ask them, then. ...Ask them when there's no heat in their homes and they're cold. Ask them when their engines stop. Ask them, when people who have never known hunger start going hungry. You want to know something? They won't want us to ask them. They'll just want us to get it.”

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.
