Quotes from The Wave

“Strength through discipline! Strength through community! Strength through action!”
― Morton Rhue, quote from The Wave

“Overcome with anger, David grabbed her other arm. Why did she have to be so stubborn? Why couldn’t she see how good The Wave could be? “We can stop you, and we will!”
― Morton Rhue, quote from The Wave

“More and more he'd begun to recognize the position of importance his students were unconsciously forcing upon him - the ultimate leader of The Wave.”
― Morton Rhue, quote from The Wave

“Was it a weakness of man that made him want to ignore the darker side of his fellow human beings?”
― Morton Rhue, quote from The Wave

“Was it really true that the natural inclination of people was to look for a leader? Someone to make decisions for them? Indeed, the faces looking up at him said it was. That was the awesome responsibility any leader had, knowing that a group like this would follow. Ben began to realize how much more serious this 'little experiment' was than he'd ever imagined. It was frightening how easily they would put their faith in your hands, how easily they would let you decide for them. If people were destined to be led, Ben thought, this was something he must make sure they learned: to question thoroughly, never to put your faith in anyone's hands blindly.”
― Morton Rhue, quote from The Wave

“You see, I am not pretty, not in the least, never was, and so I have to be odd. Nothing for it! It answers delightfully.”
― Georgette Heyer, quote from Regency Buck

“Things change,” said the former Sunlord, “as we see.” And once again he looked at Dairine. “You arrive for your people’s first sight of you as Sunlord, and what do they also see, standing at your side? An alien, garbed in raiment much like that of Wellakhit royalty, wearing some other world’s life-color, gemmed like a Guarantor. The rumors are flying already. Does another world have designs on the rule of ours? Either by straightforward conquest, or more intimate means?” Dairine’s eyes went wide as what he meant sank in. “You mean they think that we—that I—You tell those people that they are completely nuts! Even if I were old enough to think about stuff like this, which I seriously am not, I have zero interest in being anybody’s queen! Especially not his—” And then Dairine stopped short as she saw the peculiar look that had appeared on both Roshaun’s and Nelaid’s faces. “Uh,” she said then, and blushed again. “Maybe there was a less tactful way I could have put that . . .” That”
― Diane Duane, quote from Wizards at War

“اللا أحد"

البراغيث تحلم بشراء كلب واللا أحد يحلمون .لنجاه من البؤس انه في يوم سحري ما سيمطر الحظ الجيد عليهم فجأه.لكن الحظ الجيد لم يمطر البارحه. ولن يمطر اليوم..غدا..او بعد غد..او في اي وقت
والحظ الجيد لا يتساقط حتي في رذاذ رائع.مهما عاني اللا أحد في استحضاره حتي ولو كانت ايديهم اليسري مدغدغه او اذا بدأوا يوما جديدا بأقدامهم اليمني او بدأوا العام الجديد بتغيير المكانس
اللا أحد :اطفال لا أحد.الذين لا يملكون شيئا
اللا أحد:الذين ليسوا أحدا..الذين جوعلوا هكذا..يركضون كالارانب..يموتون في الحياه..الثملون بكل طريقه
الذين ليسوا ولكن يمكن ان يكونوا
الذين لا يتحدثون لغات ولكن لهجات
الذين لا اديان لهم و إنما خرافات
الذين لا يبدعون فنا وإنما صنعه يدويه
الذين لا يملكون ثقافه وإنما فلكولورا
الذين ليسوا كائنات بشريه و إنما مصادر بشريه
الذين ليس لهم وجوه بل أذرع
الذين لا اسماء لهم بل أرقام
الذين لا يظهرون في تاريخ العالم بل في دفتر الشرطه وفي الصحيفه المحليه
اللا أحد..الذين ليسوا بقيمه الرصاصه التي تقتلهم”
― Eduardo Galeano, quote from The Book of Embraces

“The Playwright was excited in the way a child is excited on Christmas morning. I liked this. Most people didn't get excited about anything other than their own discontent.”
― Maria Dahvana Headley, quote from The Year of Yes

“She’d been a resourceful thief, a narcissistic Robin Hood who stole a rich education from white people and kept it.”
― Sherman Alexie, quote from Ten Little Indians

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.
