Popular quotes

“None of us ate together: my Aunt Gladys ate at five o’clock, my cousin Susan at five-thirty, me at six, and my uncle at six-thirty. There is nothing to explain this beyond the fact that my aunt is crazy.”
― Philip Roth, quote from Goodbye, Columbus and Five Short Stories


“But she was a good plain sample of a nature that is ever, in the mass, better, truer, higher, nobler, quicker to feel, and much more constant to retain, all tenderness and pity, self-denial and devotion, than the nature of men. And perhaps, unlearned as she was, she could have brought a dawning knowledge home to Mr. Dombey at that early day, which would not then have struck him in the end like lightning.”
― Charles Dickens, quote from Dombey and Son


“Adına yaşama kavgası denen kavgayı, karnımızı doyurmak ve sevebilmek uğruna olduğu kadar, içimizdeki kitleyi öldürmek uğruna da veririz. Kimi koşullar altında bu kitle, bireyi bencillikten tümüyle uzak, dahası kendi yararlarına aykırı davranışlara dek götürebilir. "İnsanlık", bir kavram olarak bulunmazdan ve sulandırılmazdan çok önce, kitle olarak vardı. Bu kitle vahşi, coşkun, kocaman ve sımsıcak bir hayvan gibi hepimizin içinde, anasal etkilerin uzanabildiğinden çok, çok daha derinlerde bir anafor gibi kaynar. Kitle, yaşına karşın, dünyanın en genç hayvanı, en öz yaratığı, ereği ve geleceğidir. Onun üzerine hiçbir bilgimiz yok; hâlâ birer birey olduğumuz varsayımıyla yaşamaktayız. Kimi zaman kitle, gök gürültülerinden örülü bir fırtına, içinde her damlanın yaşadığı ve aynı şeyi istediği coşkun bir okyanus gibi saldırır üzerimize. Bu saldırının hemen ardından parçalanıp gitme alışkanlığını henüz koruduğu için, fırtına geçince yine biz olarak, zavallı ve bırakılmış şeytancıklar olarak kalırız. Bir zamanlar bu denli çok, bu denli büyük ve bu denli bütün olduğumuzu anılarımıza sığdıramayız bir türlü. İş bu noktaya vardığında, aklın boyunduruğunda yaşayanlar, sorunu "hastalık" sözcüğüyle açıklarlar, alçakgönüllülüğün bayraktarlığını yapmak isteyen ise, yanılgısının gerçeğe ne denli yaklaştığının bilincine varmaksızın, havayı "insanın içindeki hayvan" diyerek yumuşatır. Kitle ise bu arada yeni bir saldırı için hazırlanır. Bir gün gelecek, kitle artık parçalanmaz olacak; belki önce bir ülkede başlayacak bu gelişme, sonra orayı çıkış noktası yapıp çevresinde ne varsa yutarak ilerleyecek; ta ki artık Ben, Sen, O kavramları değil, ama yalnızca kitle varolacağından, kitlenin varlığına ilişkin tüm kuşkular ortadan kalkana dek.”
― Elias Canetti, quote from Auto-da-Fé


“There was one thing Bridget like about guys. They took insults well.”
― Ann Brashares, quote from Girls in Pants: The Third Summer of the Sisterhood


“There's nobody to guide through the process of becoming a man... to explain to them the meaning of manhood. And that's a recipe for disaster.”
― Barack Obama, quote from Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance

About BookQuoters

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.
