“Can anything good come from Duke?”
― Kyle Idleman, quote from Not a Fan: Becoming a Completely Committed Follower of Jesus


“La televisión digital era magia. Internet también. Incluso el coche del padre, la maquina con la que antes los chicos conseguían dominar por primera vez el mundo físico, ahora la controlaba un ordenador. El diagnostico de un fallo no implicaba ponerse a desmontar un motor y pringarse de aceite. En el concesionario, el coche se enchufaba a otro ordenador impenetrable.

Si al mobiliario técnico de la vida de Zach le pasaba algo —y en estos días las máquinas no chisporrotean encima de uno ni empiezan a soltar extraños bufidos ni se ponen a chillar—, a él nunca se le pasaría por la cabeza la idea de arreglarlo con sus propias manos. Para esas cosas había brujos, aunque el concepto mismo de reparación ya se había vuelto arcano; mucho más probable era ir a comprarse otra máquina que trabajaba mágicamente y que luego, mágicamente también, dejaba de funcionar.

En conjunto, la especie humana estaba volviéndose cada vez más autoritaria en lo tocante a los mecanismos del universo. Individualmente, la experiencia de la mayoría eran una impotencia y una falta de comprensión flagrantes. La gente vivía en un mundo de supersticiones. Se fiaba del vudú, de hechizos y fetiches, de bolas de cristal cuyos caprichos no se podían manejar pero sin los cuales el gobierno de la vida cotidiana se paralizaba. La fe en que el ordenador se encendería una vez más y haría lo que se le pedía tenía un tinte religioso más que racional. Cuando la pantalla se oscurecía, los dioses estaban enfadados.”
― Lionel Shriver, quote from So Much for That


“Riding upon the back of a waterhorse - what mortal had ever stayed in such a seat for so long? On a horse made of cold currents and liquid convergences, jests and trickery - pressed against a hide like the burnished sea of midnight, thing look different to the rider.”
― Cecilia Dart-Thornton, quote from The Battle of Evernight


“I'm totally cool. I'm totally calm, and I'm totally cool. My calm is exceeded only by my cool. Which is total. Here we go.”
― Joss Whedon, quote from Astonishing X-Men, Volume 3: Torn


“I would fly our child wherever she needed to go.”
― Nalini Singh, quote from Angels' Flight

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.
