“That Love is all there is, Is all we know of Love…. —Emily Dickinson”
― Dean Koontz, quote from The Husband

― Dean Koontz, quote from The Husband
“…eerie in a way it is nowhere else in the world, the flats receding and the low hills rising as if they are just fields of mist and walls of fog, illusions of shapes and dimensions, reflections of reflections, and those reflections only reflections of a dream.”
― Dean Koontz, quote from The Husband
“The secret is not to think, we think in words. And what lies beyond the reality we see is a truth that words can't contain, the secret is to feel.”
― Dean Koontz, quote from The Husband
“Love scrubs the worst stains clean. Anyway, there can be no retreat in the face of evil, only resistance. And commitment.”

“«Permanecer siempre fiel a un antiguo amor es a veces el secreto de toda una vida».”

“I do love you. I love you so much I can hardly breathe, and I don’t know how we’ll work everything out, but I want to. I’ve never wanted anything more.”
― Cindi Madsen, quote from Falling for Her Fiance
“We need a PD to talk to a guy in lock up! A Mr.” he checked the file, “DeWayne Johnson.”
“Oh I know that case,” Adam said. “That’s the gentleman from the North Philly “social club” charged with triple homicide.”
“I’ll take it,” I said.
“Hold on!” Braden stopped me. “You can’t go have a chat with a gang banger in lock up.”
“Why not?”
“He’s violent.”
“That’s probably why he’s charged with triple homicide, Braden. Although I will point out that he’s innocent until proven guilty even if he is a gangsta.”
“There must be a male PD around.”
“I’ve interviewed violent males before and this guy’s just a shooter anyway. I feel reasonably confident that they took the gun away from him when they arrested him.”
“Yeah, but they’ll lock you in with him. By the time they opened the door he could hurt you.”
“Well they’re not going to let him out to come see me. Where do you think I meet my clients? Starbucks?”
― N.M. Silber, quote from The Law of Attraction
“You know, just once, I’d like my life to be all about spending Sunday afternoon in my pajamas,”

“We move quickly, shoving the empty wrappers out of sight. I hear her faint footsteps climb the stairs and realize I still have my burger in hand. Before I can think better of it, I pull the collar of Ruthie’s top open and throw it down her shirt.”

The Citadel of the A...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.
