“There was a silence. Then Paul looked at Alex.
'She knows Chesterton.'
'She lives,' said Alex.”
― Regina Doman, quote from Waking Rose
“There are billions of men in the world, probably millions near my age. Maybe hundreds who are compatible with me. Maybe at least a dozen who would want to date me. There's got to be at least five on the continent whom I could probably marry. So why am I so hung up on this one guy?”
― Regina Doman, quote from Waking Rose
“I shall have twenty cats and talk to them all," she said, picking up the volume of poetry. "My cats and I shall have fish every day for dinner." Her imagination taking flight, she finished, dropping the book into the box, "And I shall memorize every line in this book and paint it in calligraphy on my living room walls.”
― Regina Doman, quote from Waking Rose
“Some scars never heal. And he sounds like he has a lot of them.'
'But Christ had scars too, even on His risen Body. Wounds in this life become glory in the next.”
― Regina Doman, quote from Waking Rose
“She couldn’t picture anyone falling madly in love with such a person as Fish. What a name, Fish...Fish: think cold, slippery, detached. Benedict: think dry scholarly monk from the Dark Ages. Denniston: think English preparatory school, stolid country squire. Nothing about his name sounded the least bit romantic.”
― Regina Doman, quote from Waking Rose
“Because I liked you better than it suits a girl to say,
It irked you and I promised to throw the thought away
To put the world between us, we parted stiff and dry
'Goodbye' and you: 'Forget me'.
'No fear I will' said I.
Now here where clover whitens
The dead man's knoll you pass
And now tall flower to meet you
Starts in the trefoiled grass
Halt by the headstone naming the heart no longer stirred
And say the girl that loved you
Was one who kept her word.”
― Regina Doman, quote from Waking Rose
“The world was still a turbulent and uncertain place. And there were serpents.
But serpents still make the world a place for adventures, Rose reminded herself.”

“Het kwaad heeft niet meer nodig dan goede mensen die niets doen.'
'Inderdaad, goed gezegd.' Politor knikte naar Jake en richtte zijn blauwe ogen toen op Nefertiti. 'De mensen van Ka-Tor, wij allemaal, hebben net zo diep geslapen als uw vader.'
Nefertiti stond op, haar stem vol vuur. 'Dan is het tijd dat we allemaal wakker worden.”

BetrayedBookQuoters 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.
