“You have to lace your fingers just right to catch your dreams. And you don’t want to lose them because they’re not easy to find again.”
― Kami Garcia, quote from Unbreakable


“You can’t choose the person who really sees you—the person who knows what you’re feeling without you saying a word, the person who can make you laugh and cry and everything in between just by looking at you. The one you can’t imagine being lucky enough to have, or unlucky enough to lose.”
― Kami Garcia, quote from Unbreakable


“My dad used to say the evil we enact on each other is worse than anything spirits and demons can do to us.”
― Kami Garcia, quote from Unbreakable


“Nothing scared me more than the dark. I liked to see what was coming, and darkness was a place where things could hide.”
― Kami Garcia, quote from Unbreakable


“Whenever I cared about someone, I imagined them leaving—the words they’d say, the way it would feel when they left. I thought if I prepared myself, it would be easier when it finally happened.”
― Kami Garcia, quote from Unbreakable



“A tall girl towered over us, arms crossed tightly over her chest.”
― Kami Garcia, quote from Unbreakable

“Si tu ne m'aimes pas, je t'aime
si je t'aime, prends garde à toi!”
― Prosper Mérimée, quote from Carmen


“My mother says that falling in love and getting dumped is good for you because it prepares you for the real thing, like it gets you ready for true love and all, but I'm thinking it's more like climbing up he St. Louis Arch and falling off twice. Does he first fall really get you ready for the second?”
― Dandi Daley Mackall, quote from My Boyfriends' Dogs: The Tales of Adam and Eve and Shirley


“if I had enough time” is the unstated sentence “to hear myself think.” In other words, we imagine that if we had time we would quiet our more shallow selves and listen to a deeper flow of inspiration. Again, this is a myth that lets us off the hook—if I wait for enough time to listen, I don’t have to listen now, I don’t have to take responsibility for being available to what is trying to bubble up today.”
― Julia Cameron, quote from The Right to Write: An Invitation and Initiation Into the Writing Life


“Those are the most monotonous fuckin' crickets I ever heard in my life.”
― Sam Shepard, quote from True West


“Lucas Benes lay in a sleeping bag on the roof of his father’s hotel, dreaming about a past he couldn’t remember.”
― Paul Aertker, quote from Brainwashed

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.
