“He did have to flush the toilet though, since I hadn’t gotten to that yet. I had only peed, otherwise I might have been mortified. Best friend or not, shit was still shit.”
― Scarlett Dawn, quote from King Cave

― Andrew Peterson, quote from The Monster in the Hollows
“If your faith is strong enough, she'll be healed.' If I've heard that once, I've heard it a thousand times. The problem is, when someone tells you that, they're not asking you to put faith in the power of God; they're asking you to put faith in the power of your own faith. And I can't even pretend that my mustard-seed faith measures up to the promises of God.”
― quote from Miracles from Heaven: A Little Girl, Her Journey to Heaven, and Her Amazing Story of Healing
“We live not only in a world of thoughts, but also in a world of things. Words without experience are meaningless.”

“Behalve de magisters is het iedereen verboden om de tempel binnen te treden.'
'Mari... Er zijn geen magisters meer in Calypsos. Ze zijn in ieder geval nu niet hier... Als leerlingen zijn wij de enige magisters die Calypsos op dit moment heeft.'
...
'Misschien heb je gelijk.' Haar stem werd vaster. 'We moeten het proberen.'

'Jullie de magisters van Calypsos? Dan zijn we zeker verloren.' - Pindor”

In Her ShoesBookQuoters 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.
