“The old dwarf drew himself up. His height was no longer impressive: the bowed back would not straighten, the legs could no longer support the body without assistance. But Drugar, towering over his father, saw the dignity in the trembling stance, the wisdom in the dimming eyes, and felt himself a child again.”
― Margaret Weis, quote from Elven Star
“Знаете ли, аз мисля, че животът трябва да се приема такъв, какъвто е. (...) Всичко е в божиите ръце и ние не знаем нищо за утрешния ден, с което искам да кажа, че да приемаш живота такъв, какъвто е, означава да приемеш непредсказуемото. А детето е негов събирателен образ. Детето е самата непредсказуемост. Не знаеш какво ще излезе от него, какво ще ти донесе и точно затова трябва да го приемеш. В противен случай живееш наполовина, живееш като човек, който не умее да плува и смао шляпа край брега, макар че истинското море е на дълбокото.”
― Milan Kundera, quote from Farewell Waltz
“Tap Life on the shoulders and fall a little more in love.”
― Rachel Hawthorne, quote from Love on the Lifts
“Indeed, we find that almost all the mental and emotional suffering which is such a feature of modern living—including the sense of hopelessness, of loneliness, and so on—lessens the moment we begin to engage in actions motivated by concern for others.”
― Dalai Lama XIV, quote from Ethics for the New Millennium
“Back in the autumn I had awakened to a growing darkness and cacophony, as if something in the depths were crying out. A whole chorus of voices. Orphaned voices. They seemed to speak for all the unlived parts of me, and they came with a force and dazzle that I couldn't contain. They seemed to explode the boundaries of my existence. I know now that they were the clamor of a new self struggling to be born.”

FaefeverBookQuoters 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.
