“The second we put a bullet in the head of one of those undead monsters -- the moment one of us drove a hammer into one of their faces -- or cut a head off. We became what we are! And that's just it. THAT's what it comes down to. You people don't know what we are.
We're surrounded by the DEAD. We're among them -- and when we finally give up we become them! We're living on borrowed time here. Every minute of our life is a minute we steal from them! You see them out there. You KNOW that when we die -- we become them. You think we hide behind walls to protect us from the walking dead?
Don't you get it? We ARE the walking dead! WE are the walking dead.”
― Robert Kirkman, quote from The Walking Dead, Vol. 5: The Best Defense
“Don't you get it? We are The Walking Dead!”
― Robert Kirkman, quote from The Walking Dead, Vol. 5: The Best Defense
“You kill -- You die."
That was probably the most naive thing I've ever said. The fact is -- in most cases, NOW, the way things are -- you kill -- you LIVE.”
― Robert Kirkman, quote from The Walking Dead, Vol. 5: The Best Defense
“You think I've been around these fuckers long enough to get comfortable enough to SLEEP ten feet away from them? Not fucking likely. (Axel)”

“Okay, I'll move the lawn chairs. (Axel)”

“You’ll get to the point where you react differently when you see food you know you shouldn’t eat.”
― Judith S. Beck, quote from The Beck Diet Solution
“...he said almost nothing, and ground his teeth against his desire to tell them the truth: God is helpless. We are at the mercy of our own radical freedom, and all God can do is take into God's self the grief, the violence, the sublime acts of kindness, the good sex. God comes to us from the future, and has only one godlike gift: the lure. We are lured toward truth, beauty, and goodness...the lure is pulling at our hearts like some lucid joy inside every actual occasion and all we have to do is...Say yes.”
― Haven Kimmel, quote from The Solace of Leaving Early
“(...) rozwścieczyło to jeszcze bardziej, wypchnęła do przodu swój gigantyczny biust tak, że Haakani aż się potknął cofając, i palnęła, że lepiej by sobie possał cyca, jeśli nie ma nic ważniejszego do powiedzenia. Kobiety zarechotały szorstko, a Haakani poczerwieniał. Potem powiedział, że na palce będzie się siłował dopiero, gdy baba wychyli kieliszek wódki. Ponieważ była chrześcijanką, odmówiła. Sprzeczali się, wałkując temat tam i z powrotem. W końcu, z czystej złości, Hilma chwyciła spory kieliszek bimbru, wypiła do dna i wystawiła swój długi pazur. Wszyscy ucichli i przerażeni wlepili oczy w staruszkę.”
― Mikael Niemi, quote from Popular Music from Vittula
“Two decades of virtually uninterrupted fighting had made even the most dignified structures appear drunken, wounded, or lost. The entire city seemed to affirm the notion that warfare is a disease.”

The Biology of Belie...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.
