“That would be a fine day...one that I needed a girl to save my life. From a vampire.”

“with more malice than that of Judas Iscariot. Once a proud name, now it is spit upon, said with hatred and venom. Judas is gone, but Lilith roams the earth, and she builds her army of vampires. She intends to rule the world; her strength is always our weakness. It is our task, our legacy, to keep Lilith and her minions at bay.”

“Tenemos miedos. Todos tenemos miedos, aunque lo bueno de esta vida es que casi nadie nos pregunta cuáles son los nuestros. Los intuyen, los huele, se encuentran con ellos en un día en un aeropuerto, en medio de una calle oscura, al subir a un autobús en una ciudad desconocida… Y de repente se dan cuenta de que somos miedosos al volar, a la oscuridad, a que nos roben o a amar y entregar en el sexo parte de nosotros”
― Albert Espinosa, quote from Everything You and I Could Have Been If We Weren't You and I
“I had lost too much of the heart and all the faith needed to stay afloat in a job where every human encounter felt like an anvil strung around my neck just when I thought I was nearing the shore.”

“I desideri erano come un veleno, pensò Jimmy. Quando uno li esprime sono tutti luminosi e splendono, dolci come caramelle. Ma poi restano lì a languire, e finiscono col marcire. Diventano tossici. Era per quel motivo che non esprimeva mai nessun desiderio.”

The Pagan StoneBookQuoters 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.
