“What I wanted, frankly, was someone who would argue me out of the things that I was thinking.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from The Pale Horse
“I avoided my own friends and acquaintances, yet the loneliness of my existence was insupportable.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from The Pale Horse
“She looked at nobody, but just before she went out, she raised her eyes and took a speedy glance at me. There was something in that looks that startled me - though it was difficult to describe why. There was malice in it, and a curious intimate knowledge. I felt that, without effort, and almost without curiosity, she had known exactly what thoughts were in my mind.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from The Pale Horse
“Life is always dangerous—never forget that. In the end, perhaps, not only great natural forces, but the work of our own hands may destroy it.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from The Pale Horse
“Being in love has a very bad effect on men - it seems to addle their wits.”
― Agatha Christie, quote from The Pale Horse

“Una avalancha comienza con un guijarro. Un bosque con una semilla. Y solo se necesita una palabra para hacer que el mundo entero se detenga y escuche. Todo lo que necesitas es la palabra correcta.”
― Jay Kristoff, quote from Endsinger
“When Jesus died on the cross the mercy of God did not become any greater. It could not become any greater, for it was already infinite. We get the odd notion that God is showing mercy because Jesus died. No--Jesus died because God is showing mercy. It was the mercy of God that gave us Calvary, not Calvary that gave us mercy. If God had not been merciful there would have been no incarnation, no babe in the manger, no man on a cross and no open tomb.”
― A.W. Tozer, quote from The Attributes of God: A Journey Into the Father's Heart
“Polislerin canı cehenneme.güvenimize ihanet ediyorsunuz!
elini bir çocuğun pantolonuna sokan rahiplerin canı cehenneme.
onları koruyan, bizi kötülüğe yönelten kiliselerin canı cehenneme.
konu açılmışken, İsa'nın da canı cehenneme. paçayı ucuz kurtardı.
çarmıhta bir gün, cehennemde hafta sonu boyunca kaldı ve meleklerin ilahileri sonsuza dek onun için söylenecek.
Otisville' de yedi yıl yaşamayı denesene İsa!”
― David Benioff, quote from The 25th Hour
“The world could be a conniving harlot, as evil as a demon, but love would defeat her, every single time. Love never failed.”
― Gena Showalter, quote from Burning Dawn
“This was home. Ourea was home. And as tired as she was of fighting, she would kill to protect that.”

Hooked: How to Build...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.
