“And then I'm dancing, swept away by the music and the magic and Ryn's arms guiding me. We spin graceful circles around the floor. Ryn lets go of me and I twirl beneath his arm, laughing at the same time. It is so not me, and yet I find I'm actually enjoying it.
"See?" Ryn says, "This is easy. And you might possibly be having fun."
The magic guides me as I step out of Ryn's arms, twirl behind his back, and catch his hand. "You might possibly be right."
He pulls me back into position. "Oh, I forgot to tell you something," he says. He leans forward and his lips brush my ear as he whispers, "You are more beautiful than any other girl in this room.”

“Men do not attract that which they want, but that which they are.”

“every single person in the world is fundamentally alone. It’s hard, but that’s the way it is, and we have to face it.”
― Irvin D. Yalom, quote from Momma and the Meaning of Life: Tales of Psychotherapy
“স্বয়ং বিধির কৃপায় মদের বরাদ্দ জগতের চার দিকেই, এমন-কি, তোমাদের ঐ চোখের কটাক্ষে। আমাদের এই বাহুতে আমরা কাজ জোগাই, তোমাদের বাহুর বন্ধনে তোমরা মদ জোগাও। জীবলোকে মজুরি করতে হয়, আবার মজুরি ভুলতেও হয়। মদ না হলে ভোলাবে কিসে।”
― Rabindranath Tagore, quote from Red Oleanders
“The Lord's Prayer is less than fifty words long, and six of those words are devoted to asking God not to lead us into temptation.”
― Aldous Huxley, quote from The Doors of Perception

The Origins of Total...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.
