“I click on the deaths and read the names carefully, memorising them. Because here’s the simple truth—if I hadn’t taken the ship off Phydus, people like ***** and ******* would still be alive. And while I could say that a shorter life with feelings is better than a longer life without, the dead can’t tell me their side. [p.88]”
― Beth Revis, quote from A Million Suns

“Real evidence is usually vague and unsatisfactory. It has to be examined---sifted. But here the whole thing is cut and dried. No, my friend, this evidence has been very cleverly manufactured---so cleverly that it has defeated its own ends.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from The Mysterious Affair at Styles

“Aveva l'espressione di un astronauta fluttuante nello spazio a cui si è sganciato il cavo e ha una sola possibilità di afferare una corda di salvataggio o di vagare per sempre nel nero infinito. Conoscevo quella sensazione, il panico che sembrava allungare il tempo, che trasformava i secondi in anni, e il dolore di essere feriti non da una persona, ma da molte, una banda di bulli che cresceva fino a includere il tuo quartiere e poi tutta la comunità, fino a spingerti a mettere in dubbio il mondo intero. E l'ultimo pensiero mentre allungavi il braccio fin quasi a sfiorare quella corda di salvataggio è in che modo, se fossi sopravvissuto, avresti potuto riparare quello che si era rotto, per poter dire che sì, volevi di nuovo essere parte di quel mondo.”
― Lissa Price, quote from Starters

About BookQuoters

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.
