“A terrorist doesn't let strangers into her flat because they might be undercover police or intelligence agents, but her children bring their mates home and they run all over the place
The terrorist doesn't know that one of these kids has bugged every room in her house, made copies of all her computer files and stolen her address book.
The kid works for CHERUB
CHERUB agents are aged between 10 and 17. They live in the real world, slipping under adult radar and getting information that sends criminals and terrorists to jail.”
― Robert Muchamore, quote from The Recruit

“След две седмици Меме беше отворила дюкянчето си и дори си имаше шевна машина. Беше купила нова Domestic с парите, които той натрупа у дома. За мене това беше оскърбление. Така и казах на баща ти. Но макар и да не реагираше на възмущението ми, личеше, че е по-скоро доволен от постъпката си, отколкото разкаян, сякаш беше спасил душата си, противопоставяйки на благоприличието и честта на нашия дом пословичната си търпимост, своето разбиране и великодушие. И дори известно неблагоразумие. Казах му: «Ти хвърли на свинете най-хубавото от убежденията си.» А той, както винаги, ми отвърна:
— И това ще проумееш някой ден.”
― Gabriel García Márquez, quote from Leaf Storm and Other Stories
“Mother—” began Ramona, leaning out into the hall. Mother paid no attention to her. “I just don’t see what we can”

“After relating these things concerning John, he makes mention of our Saviour in the same work, in the following words: And there lived at that time Jesus, a wise man, if indeed it be proper to call him a man. For he was a doer of wonderful works, and a teacher of such men as receive the truth in gladness. And he attached to himself many of the Jews, and many also of the Greeks. He was the Christ. 8. When Pilate, on the accusation of our principal men, condemned him to the cross, those who had loved him in the beginning did not cease loving him. For he appeared unto them again alive on the third day, the divine prophets having told these and countless other wonderful things concerning him. Moreover, the race of Christians, named after him, continues down to the present day.”
― Paul L. Maier, quote from Eusebius: The Church History
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.
