― Corrine Jackson, quote from Touched
“Yes"
Somehow, I wasn't surprised to hear his low voice. I opened my eyes, and Asher's fierce, unblinking stare held me captive. I couldn't think while trapped by the power of that intent look.
"Yes what?"

― Corrine Jackson, quote from Touched

“Yorda slid down the side of the throne platform and walked again toward Ico. She moved differently now. This was not the Yorda he had led through the castle by the hand, the Yorda who would wander aimlessly if he did not call out to her. This was the queen's double, her puppet.”
― Miyuki Miyabe, quote from Ico: Castle in the Mist
“We turned away from each other at the same time, the space between us getting longer, until it looked like we hadn’t even been standing together in the first place. But we had, and it was there: another heart layer on top of that sidewalk, changing it forever.”
― Jennifer Gooch Hummer, quote from Girl Unmoored
“Se esfuerza en sonreírme, pero percibo que su rostro lleva el peso de las terribles impresiones que en él ha grabado la reflexión, constantemente inclinada sobre las esfinges que desconciertan, con sesgada mirada, las
grandes angustias de la inteligencia de los mortales.
Viendo la inutilidad de sus manejos, aparta los ojos, tasca su freno terrestre con la baba de la rabia, y mira el horizonte que huye cuando nos acercamos. A mi vez, me esfuerzo por recordarle su dorada juventud, que sólo pide entrar, como una reina, en los palacios de los placeres, pero advierte que mis palabras brotan con dificultad de mi demacrada boca y que los años de mi propia primavera pasaron, tristes y glaciales, como un sueño implacable que pasea, por las mesas de los banquetes y los lechos de raso, donde dormita la pálida sacerdotisa del amor, pagada con la reverberación del oro, las amargas voluptuosidades del desencanto, las pestilentes arrugas de la vejez, los terrores de la soledad y las antorchas del dolor. Viendo la inutilidad de mis manejos, no me
asombra no poder hacerle feliz; el Todopoderoso se
me aparece revestido con sus instrumentos de tortura,
en toda la resplandeciente aureola de su horror.”
― Comte de Lautréamont, quote from Maldoror = Les Chants de Maldoror, together with a translation of Lautréamont's Poésies
“1 :
...
بإرادة الروح
تأتي أشكال لا تعد و لا تحصى ..
و بسبب هذه الإرادة
لا أستطيع حتى أن أتكلم ..
بإرادة الروح
((أي روح القدس))
تأتي جميع الأرواح
اندمج في هذه الروح
و كن عظيما ..
يإرادة الروح
يكون الخير و الشر
و بها يكتب
الألم و السلام
للجميع .
للبعض ، تحضر
الهدايا الوفيرة
للبعض ، تودي
إلى تيه لا نهاية له
كل شئ موجود ضمن تلك الإرادة
.. لا شئ كاذب من ورائها
آه يا ناناك :
إذا فهمت
الإرادة الإلهية
لن تجد
(نفسك)
شئ لتقوله”
― Guru Nanak, quote from Sri Guru Granth Sahib
“Always ask for what you want, because the worst thing that can happen is embarrassment but the best thing that can happen is nudity.”

The Beginning of Eve...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.
