“Julia edged closer, wondering what kind of vocabulary dogs understood. Frederico Fellini, her cat, was an intellectual and she could talk about books and films to him, as long as it was after he'd been fed, and fed well. She had the vague notion that dogs preferred football and politics.”
― Lisa Marie Rice, quote from Woman on the Run
“Being the object of a woman-hunt, exiled to Simpson, being terrorized by school kids trick-or-treating, lusting after an aroused non-talker with superb thighs. It was all too much.”

“The only way anyone will ever get to you will be over my dead body.” Julia drew in a long breath. “In that case, Cooper,” she said faintly into his shoulder, “maybe you better put some clothes on.”

“If you can’t discover what’s keeping you in, the will to get out soon becomes confused and ineffectual - "Ishmael”
― Daniel Quinn, quote from Ismael
“I know I’m only second best. But I keep thinking it’s better than being nothing at all. I know I can’t be who you need me to be... but it’s so hard that I am fighting a ghost. I’m always trying to outdo a woman who doesn’t even exist in your life anymore... and I’m never going to beat her!”
― Ysa Arcangel, quote from Forever Night Stand
“All I could do was suck in air through my gaping mouth and pray I wouldn’t pass out.”
― Adrienne Wilder, quote from Complementary Colors
“I admit to a feeling of pride that my father had saved the day yet again, although I also thought that nothing would have been better for me personally than for the mullah to force my father's departure within the hour. Either way, I know now that nothing would have stopped my father from his Jihad. If he could not remain in Afghanistan, he would go to Pakistan. If Pakistan pulled the welcome mat, he would go to Yemen. If Yemen threw him out, he would journey to the middle of the most hostile desert where he would plot against the West. Violent Jihad was my father's life; nothing else really mattered. Nothing.”

Pigs in HeavenBookQuoters 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.
