“The blade must past threw the fire, else it breaks.”
― Margaret Weis, quote from The Soulforge

― Margaret Weis, quote from The Soulforge
“The magic will not solve your problems. It will only add to them. The magic will not make people like you. It will increase their distrust. The magic will not ease your pain. It will twist and burn inside you until sometimes you think that even death would be preferable."
-Antimodes, "Soulforge”
― Margaret Weis, quote from The Soulforge
“So dark. Endless darkness, eternal. It was not the absence of light that was so frightening as the absence of thought, of knowledge, of comprehension. Our lives, the lives of the living will go on. The sun shines, the moons rise, we will laugh and talk, and he will know nothing, feel nothing. Nothing.
So final. It will come to us all. It will come to me.”
― Margaret Weis, quote from The Soulforge

“СЛОЖНОДУМНО
Гъстонаселено се автотранспортирах в общоизвестното южнопарижко местонаправление и се самоозовах близкостоящ до един дълговрат плетеноширитен дръжми-шапковец. Гореописаният трагикомично слаботелесен нехранимайко с плиткодънна многозначителност умопомрачи еди-кого си с долуказаното: “Като целенасочено своеволничите, вие нееднократно злоупотребявате с телосложението ми!” След животрептущето си словоизлияние преждеговорившият правостоящ скорострелно се облагодетелства от междувременно обезлюдилата се едноместна автоседалка.
Подир двучасово времетраене мимоходом го лицесъзрях да площадосенлазарства с гологлав доброжелател, който нравоучително и чистосърдечно празнословеше: “Целесъобразно е да преокомплектоваш по-благоразумно полушубката си!” И умозаключително изсладкодумничи причинно-следствената взаимовръзка.”
― Raymond Queneau, quote from Exercises in Style
“God loves you even on your blackest days, and He will always, always be there to guide you home. All you have to do is look for the light of His love.”
― Lauren Myracle, quote from Shine
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.
