“Volví a pie a la oficina. Frau Protze estaba limpiando el cristal del amarillento grabado de Tilly colgado de la pared de mi sala de espera, y observando con una cierta diversión los apuros del burgomaestre de Rothenburg. Cuando cruzaba la puerta, el teléfono empezó a sonar. Frau Protze me sonrió y luego entró ágilmente en su cubículo para contestar, dejándome que contemplara de nuevo el cuadro limpio. Hacía mucho tiempo que no lo había mirado de verdad. Al burgomaestre, que había suplicado a Tilly, comandante del ejército alemán del siglo XVII, que no destruyera su ciudad, le fue exigido por su conquistador que bebiera seis litros de cerveza sin respirar. Según recuerdo la historia, el burgomaestre consiguió realizar esa extraordinaria hazaña de beodo y la ciudad se salvó. Era, siempre lo había pensado, característicamente alemán.”
― Philip Kerr, quote from Berlin Noir: March Violets / The Pale Criminal / A German Requiem


“حين يتوقف الإنسان عن الإيمان بالخالق تعم الفوضى.”
― Isaac Bashevis Singer, quote from Enemies: A Love Story


“What had possessed her to kiss him?”
― Kristen Britain, quote from Mirror Sight


“Surely the Shadowhunter community must honor you and hold you in high esteem as a gentleman who has truly advanced their race. No, Henry said sadly. Mostly they wish that I would stop suggesting new inventions and cease setting fire to things.”
― Cassandra Clare, quote from The Infernal Devices: Clockwork Princess


“For I have indeed been torn from all my roots, even from the earth that nourished them, more entirely than most in our times. I was born in 1881 in the great and mighty empire of the Habsburg Monarchy, but you would look for it in vain on the map today; it has vanished without trace. I grew up in Vienna, an international metropolis for two thousand years, and had to steal away from it like a thief in the night before it was demoted to the status of a provincial German town. My literary work, in the language in which I wrote it, has been burnt to ashes in the country where my books made millions of readers their friends. So I belong nowhere now, I am a stranger or at the most a guest everywhere. Even the true home of my heart’s desire, Europe, is lost to me after twice tearing itself suicidally to pieces in fratricidal wars. Against my will, I have witnessed the most terrible defeat of reason and the most savage triumph of brutality in the chronicles of time. Never—and I say so not with pride but with shame—has a generation fallen from such intellectual heights as ours to such moral depths.”
― Stefan Zweig, quote from The World of Yesterday

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.
