“I was in the deep water. It was dark and unclear and the taste of the salt was in my mouth.”
― Raymond Chandler, quote from The Little Sister
“He remembered how satisfied he had been as a youngster, and that with the little he had had - a dog, a stick, an aloneness he loved (which did not bleed him like his later loneliness), and he wished he could have lived longer in his boyhood. This was an old thought with him.”
― Bernard Malamud, quote from The Natural
“إن الزواج يشبه في نظرنا نحن البنات الموت من بعض النواحي لاننا نودع آباءنا وأمهاتنا وعماتنا وأبناء عمنا وخادماتنا اللواتي اعتنين بنا ونذهب إلى حياة جديدة كليا. فنعيش مع عائلاتنا الحقيقية التي تدرج اسماءنا في قاعة اسلافها .وبهذه الطريقة يشبه الزواج الموت والبعث من جديد من دون الذهاب الى العالم الإخر”
― Lisa See, quote from Peony in Love
“You know how men are. When they don't feel good, the world comes to a standstill.”
― Clare Vanderpool, quote from Moon Over Manifest
“Sometimes in your life you just meet someone or hear something that nudges you on the right path. And that becomes the best advice. It could just be a bit of common sense said in a way that resonates with something in you. It's nothing new, but because it connects with you it holds meaning for you.”
― Chetan Bhagat, quote from 2 States: The Story of My Marriage
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.
