“Vorher glaubte ich, die Dinge hätten eine Bestimmung, einen verborgenen Sinn. Vorher glaubte ich, dieser Sinn sei der Gestaltung der Welt vorausgegangen. Aber der Gedanke, es gebe schlechte und gute Gründe, ist eine Illusion,[...], denn ich weiß jetzt, dass das Leben nur eine Folge von Ruhe- und Ungleichgewichtszuständen ist, deren Anordnung keiner Notwendigkeit unterliegt.”
― Delphine de Vigan, quote from No and Me
“Премина един трамвай, сигурно беше първият, излязъл от депото, най-обикновен трамвай, като всички останали, избелял и стар – този трамвай може да ме е виждал как тичам, а след мен Кимет, когато изтичахме като пощръклели откъм площад „Диамант“. Нещо застана на гърлото ми, като зърно нахут, забило се в мъжеца. Зави ми се свят, затворих очи и вятърът, кой то направи трамваят, ме тласна напред, сякаш животът ми си отиваше. И при първата си крачка още виждах трамвая как преминава с голяма скорост и пуска червени и сини искри между колелата и релсите. Сякаш вървях в празно пространство , очите ми не виждаха, всеки миг си мислех, че ще потъна, пресякох, стиснала здраво ножа, без да виждам сини светлини. На отсрещната страна се обърнах и погледнах с очите си и душата си и не можех да повярвам, че е станало невъзможното. Бях пресякла. Вървях по предишния си живот, докато стигнах до стената на къщата, под покрития балкон…”
― Mercè Rodoreda, quote from The Time of the Doves
“Everything is something worth considering - even if it's eventually ruled out" -Simon”
― Tricia Rayburn, quote from Siren
“It’s rigid. It’s firm and unyielding. It never lies…It is always right, and all you have to do is take the most logical path to find the answer. It brings reality and truth to every scene on earth. Every business that has fudged its numbers gets flamed out in the end.”
― David Cristofano, quote from The Girl She Used to Be
“(kadın için) -böylece çok garip ve karışık bir varlık çıkıyor ortaya. Hayal edildiğinde çok önemli, pratikte ise tamamen önemsiz. Şiir kitaplarını baştan sona istila etmiş, tarihte ise adı geçmiyor. Kurmacalarda, kralların ve fatihlerin hayatlarına hükmediyor; gerçek hayatta ailesinin parmağına yüzüğü taktığı herhangi bir delikanlının kölesi. Dudaklarından, edebiyatın en ilham verici sözcükleri, en derin duygularından bazıları dökülüyor, gerçek hayatta okuması yazması neredeyse yok, zor heceliyor sözcükleri ve kocasının malı durumunda.”
― Virginia Woolf, quote from A Room of One's Own / Three Guineas
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.
