― Emilyann Girdner, quote from The Labyrinth Wall
“No matter what there always seems to be something clouding my existence, nothing is ever clear.”

“Oh, pfft. I manage. With any paper one sticks under their nose and plenty of self-possession, one can get through, Especially a woman. Sometimes I take an armload of parcels and bags and drop every single one as I try to find my identity cards, chatting all the while, and they wave me through out of sheer irritation.'
Lili exhaled a long steam of smoke. 'To tell the truth, much of this special work we do is quite boring. I think that's why women are good as it. Our lives are already boring. We jump an Uncle Edward's offer because we can't stand the thought of working in a file room anymore, or teaching a class full of runny-nosed children their letters. Then we discover this job is deadly dull as well, but at least there's the enlivening thought that someone might put a Luger to the back of our necks. It's still better than shooting ourselves, which we know we're going to do if we have to type one more letter or pound one more Latin verb into a child's ivory skull.”
― Kate Quinn, quote from The Alice Network
“I snorted. ‘For a great sultan who is lord and ruler of all that he surveys, his English is lamentably poor. He can’t even spell England properly.’
Still holding the note, Mr Ascham looked up at me. ‘Is that so? Tell me, Bess, do you speak his language? Any Arabic or Turkish-Arabic?’
‘You know that I do not.’
‘Then however lamentable his English may be, he still speaks your language while you cannot speak his. To me, this gives him a considerable advantage over you. Always pause before you criticise, and never unduly criticise one who has made an effort at something you yourself have not even attempted.”
― Matthew Reilly, quote from The Tournament
“Daleina would not be kept from her fate. She’d run toward it, arms open, and kick fate in the face.”

“It’s strange to grieve for your former self, and still I think it’s something that any girl understands. I’ve shed so many skins, I hardly know what I am now—muscle, maybe, or just memory. Perhaps just the will to keep going.”
― Brittany Cavallaro, quote from The Last of August
“maria puder son birkaç dakika zarfında biraz sükunetini kaybetmişe benziyordu. bunu tespit edince memnun oldum: onun hiç sarsılmadan gittiğini görmek, beni herhalde pek üzecekti. mütemadiyen elimi tutup bırakıyor:
"ne manasız şey?.. ne diye gidiyorsun sanki?" diye söyleniyordu.
"asıl sen gidiyorsun , ben daha burdayım!" dedim.
bu sözümü fark etmemiş göründü. kolumdan tuttu.
"raif... şimdi ben gidiyorum!" dedi.
"evet... biliyorum!"
trenin hareket saati gelmişti. bir memur vagon kapısını örtüyordu. maria puder merdiven basamağına atladı, sonra bana eğilerek, yavaş bir sesle, fakat tane tane:
"şimdi ben gidiyorum. fakat ne zaman çağırsan gelirim..." dedi.
evvela ne demek istediğini anlamadım. o da bir an durdu ve ilave etti:
"nereye çağırsan gelirim!”

Brief Lives
Sugar DaddyBookQuoters 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.
