“The instinct to survive is human nature itself, and every aspect of our personalities derives from it. Anything that conflicts with the survival instinct acts sooner or later to eliminate the individual and thereby fails to show up in future generations. . . . A scientifically verifiable theory of morals must be rooted in the individual's instinct to survive--and nowhere else!--and must correctly describe the hierarchy of survival, note the motivations at each level, and resolve all conflicts.
We have such a theory now; we can solve any moral problem, on any level. Self-interest, love of family, duty to country, responsibility toward the human race . . . .
The basis of all morality is duty, a concept with the same relation to group that self-interest has to individual.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, quote from Starship Troopers
“—El conde tiene que agradecer el descifrado de los Antiguos Escritos a personajes tan famosos como Raimundus Lullus, Agrippa von Nettesheim, John Colet, Henry Draper, Simon Forman, Samuel Hartlib, Kenelm Digby y John Wallis —informó mister De Villiers.
Ninguno de esos nombres me sonaba de nada.
—Ninguno de esos nombres le suena de nada —dijo Gideon burlonamente.
¡Demonios! ¿Es qué podía leer el pensamiento? Por si acaso podía hacerlo, le dirigí una mirada asesina y pensé con todas mis fuerzas: «¡Estúpido fanfarrón!».
Apartó la mirada.”
― Kerstin Gier, quote from Ruby Red
“The best way to avoid responsibility is to say, 'I've got
responsibilities.”
― Richard Bach, quote from Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah
“Sometimes they do things to make me do the opposite of what they think, I think, they think, I am going to do.”
― James Dashner, quote from The Death Cure
“So," I said. "Seems you're going to be stuck with me for a while."
He smiled. A real smile that lit up his whole face.
"Good,”
― Kelley Armstrong, quote from The Reckoning
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.
