“TO:rosencrantzpinchard@gmai.com: Something's wrong! The house is shaking!
TO:rosencrantzpinchard@gmail.com: Well can you turn down the volume on Star Trek:Voyager? I thought we were having an earthquake when the Enterprise hit Warp speed. Why did you let me sleep until nearly one?”

Fireworks from the London Eye are bursting above my head filling the garden with reds, yellows and blues, but I am on my own. I don’t know where Daniel is. He promised he would be home by eleven.
Happy New Year x”

“I unzipped my boots but they wouldn’t budge. My feet had swollen in the heat. After much tugging, a queue had started to form behind us. Eventually I had no choice but to hold onto the rail with my legs in the air whilst Adam pulled. It wasn’t my finest hour.”
― Robert Bryndza, quote from The Not So Secret Emails Of Coco Pinchard
“There’s like a dude at the door, asking for you?”
“Did you let him in?”
“No. I said I would check with you.”
“Well, did you ask his name?”
“Yeah. It’s Mr. Rickard.”
“That’s Adam you idiot! Go and let him in!”
“But he’s like fit!”
“No need to sound so shocked.”
“You’re dating him?”
“Yes. look, I haven’t got time to go this, and he is standing out on the doorstep.”
“Fucking hell Mum, like, way to go.”

“I felt tears coming and for some reason, buried my head in Iain’s chest. It was firm and muscled and he smelt so wonderful.
I realised what I was doing and pulled away, but a big string of snot hung between my nose and his shirt pocket.”

“I came out of the bathroom naked this morning as the computer was ringing and Meryl and Tony appeared via Skype.”

That was the auto correct! Not me! My email was meant to read ‘I am just going home for a bit of a nap!’
I am tired, I am not, and I never have…
Anyway. Looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.
Coco.”

“Joseph stood, his gaze traveling over Connor's clean-shaven face and hairless chest, his lips curving in a grin. "What's this? The Cub is not so furry.”
― Pamela Clare, quote from Defiant
“Rabin i biskup živeli su jedan pored drugog stalno se takmičeći. Jednog jutra rabin je primetio da je biskup kupio novi auto. Rabin ga upita:
- Šta to radiš? - biskup je polivao auto vodom
- Kupio sam novi auto "kadilak", osveštavam ga
Sledećeg dana biskup pita rabina
- Šta to radiš?
Najnoviji model rols ojska stajao je ispred rabinove kuće a rabin mu je sekao auspuh.
- Obrezujem ga
To je tačno ono što oni rade svojoj deci. A svako dete je jednako nevino i bespomoćno; ono niti zna šta mu rade niti mu je to potrebno, niti to može da spreči. POrodica je izvor svih okova svesti: ona ti daje u nasleđe svu prošlost i ogorman teret prepun stavova za koje je već odavno dokazano da su pogrešni. Pretovaren si svim time i tvoj um je zapušen tako da ne može da primi ništa novo što je u suprotnosti s već formalnim konceptima u tvojoj glavi. Tvoj um je jednostavno pun smeća.”
― Osho, quote from Intimacy: Trusting Oneself and the Other
“We all know of people who thought they could to it (whatever “it” is) tomorrow. We have all procrastinated on such a way, and often to our personal regret. It happens time and again, putting off things that we convince ourselves might be better, more meaningful, more appropriate for another time. So often that better time either never comes or really isn’t better or more appropriate after all. And then, sadly, the window of opportunity -to do something great- closes.”
― Tim Tebow, quote from Through My Eyes
“He keeps saying he doesn’t want to get personal, yet he has no problem asking me personal questions or invading my personal space,”
― Jodi Ellen Malpas, quote from Promised
“We think we know them, but we really don’t. We let ourselves be deceived because we are always expecting the best out of those who seem willing to provide it.”
― Terry Brooks, quote from The High Druid's Blade
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 2018, 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.
