“It’s like you miss a year of your life,”
― Jacqueline Davies, quote from The Lemonade War
“said, “You spelled lemonade wrong. It’s an o, not an i.” But she thought, Oh, good! A lemonade stand. My favorite thing to do! The boys didn’t say anything. Jessie saw Evan’s mouth tighten up. “You want me to make the lemonade?” she asked.”
― Jacqueline Davies, quote from The Lemonade War
“Jessie reached for 'Ten Bright Ideas to Light Up Your Sales'. It was on her bedside table, right next to 'Charlotte's Web'. Jessie's hand hovered. She looked longingly at Wilbur and Fern watching Charlotte hanging b a thread.
But this was war, and she couldn't stop to read for fun.”
― Jacqueline Davies, quote from The Lemonade War

“No,” Abigail said in a low voice, “but I can save one.”
― Damian Wampler, quote from Sevara: Dawn of Hope
“The next morning we reach the Cilician Gates, and look out over one of the most beautiful views I know. It is like standing on the rim of the world and looking down on the promised land, and one feels much as Moses must have felt. For here, too, there is no entering in. ... The soft, hazy dark blue loveliness is a land one will never reach; the actual towns and villages when one gets there will be only the ordinary everyday world—not this enchanted beauty that beckons you down.”
― quote from Come, Tell Me How You Live
“And who am I, mighty Khan?
She felt warmth in him then, the beginnings of a smile deep inside.
He spread his wings.
Bowed his head.
Purred.
YOU ARE YUKIKO.”
― Jay Kristoff, quote from Endsinger
“Love casts out fear, for when we know we are loved, we are not afraid. Whoever has God's perfect love, fear is gone out of the universe for him.”
― A.W. Tozer, quote from The Attributes of God: A Journey Into the Father's Heart
“Konuş benimle, tamam mı? Konuş. Monty? Böyle yapma. Bu bizim son gecemiz." "Bizim son gecemiz değil bu. Benim son gecem. Seninse yarından itibaren önünde bir dolu lanet olası gece var. Dışarı çıkabilir, bir avukatın içki ısmarlamasına izin verebilir, Hudson' da çırılçıplak yüzebilirsin. Önünde çok zamanın var."
...
Onun yarınları olacağını, kahkahalar atıp, dostlarıyla eğleneceğini, kaldırımlarda dolaşıp, vitrinlere bakacağını, lokantalarda akşam yemekleri yiyeceğini düşününce kendini çok yalnız hissediyordu. Sigarayı elinde tuttu ama yakmadı.
Bir an yalnızca kısacık bir an Naturelle' den şüphelenmemiş miydi? O çılgın anda kadının telefonla evde uyuşturucu gizlendiği ihbarını yapmış olabileceği aklından geçmemiş miydi? O düşünceyi hemen aklından uzaklaştırmıştı sonra da. Neden böyle bir şey yapsın ki? Beni ihbar etmekten ne çıkarı olabilir? Ama bir kez insanın aklına kurt düşmeye görsün, bir daha benzer düşünceler kolay kolay zihinden atılamıyordu. Kuşku inancı giderek kemiriyordu. Ona bir daha güvenebilecek miydi? Ve eğer seninle yatan kadına güvenemezsen, en savunmasız anlarında yanında olan kadına itimat edemezsen, dünyada kime güvenebilirsin ki?”
― David Benioff, quote from The 25th Hour

From the Earth to th...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.
