Popular quotes

“If learning lessons from history is a mark of enlightenment, so is breaking free from it. This applies equally to every religion, caste, creed and group.”
― S.L. Bhyrappa, quote from Aavarana - The Veil

“I would have done anything. Anything to get back to you. I can’t say I’m sorry for that.”
― Madeleine Urban, quote from Cut & Run

“It could have been avoided. This couch misery spiral, this … loss … I could’ve avoided the bulk of it simply by doing more. I could’ve given a shit...”
― Emma Mills, quote from First & Then

“Charles a raison, la plupart des hommes se contentent d'un boulot, d'un toit, de quelques heures de repos le dimanche et ils s'estiment heureux comme ça; heureux d'être tranquilles, pas d'être en vie ! Que leurs voisins souffrent, tant que la peine ne pénètre pas chez eux, ils préfèrent ne rien voir; faire comme si les mauvaises choses n'existaient pas. Ce n'est pas toujours de la lâcheté. Pour certains, vivre demande déjà beaucoup de courage.”
― Marc Levy, quote from The Children of Freedom

“Lying there sleeping on the mossy concrete, his face jerking with the troubled passage of his dreams, he is provisionally still brother to all humankind. He has strayed far from the ways of men but there has always been a kind of twisted logic to his violence. The things he desired and struggled for made a kind of sense. Revenge, avarice, a thirst for power. The things only dreamed by normal men. Their own secret thoughts made carnate and ambulatory. Silver threads, thin and frayed though they be, hold him yet to the ways of the world.”
― William Gay, quote from Twilight

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.
