“Zindagi ko badalne me waqt nahi lagta, Par kabhi kabhi waqt ko badalne me zindagi lag jati hai!!”
“You can pick your friends, but you don’t pick who you fall in love with.”
“Love surprises us in unexpected ways, in ways that are beyond our comprehension. It’s never the sweet words or the mushy gifts that matter. What matters more are little things like caring about someone and not being able to sleep till you’re sure that the one you love is safe and sound.”
“Sometimes, we play with love, but when you finally realize that you want to get serious, love plays with you.”
“when you completely trust a person with all your heart, you either get a friend for life or a lesson for life!”
“The worst thing in life is not losing the one you love, it’s losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much.”
“Why is it that the people you care about the most end up making you feel so meaningless?”
“People say actions speak louder than words, but sometimes it’s the words that hurt the most. Actions are easy to ignore, but words hit you right where it hurts.”
“«Vedrai» continua Samuel in preda al delirio, « un giorno avrai uno,due figli, o anche di più, non ho tempo per contarli adesso. Ma dovrai chiedergli un favore da parte mia, dovrai dirgli che si tratta di una cosa molto importante. Una promessa che loro padre ha fatto tanto tempo fa, in un passato che non esiste più. Perché un giorno questo passato di guerra non esisterà più. vedrai Jeannot.
Dirai ai tuoi figli di raccontare la nostra storia, nel loro mondo libero. Gli parlerai della nostra lotta. Gli insegnerai che su questa terra niente conta più di quella puttana della libertà, sempre pronta a vendersi al miglior offerente. Perchè quella cagna ama l’amore degli uomini e fuggirà sempre da quelli che vogliono incatenarla, e regalerà la vittoria a chi la rispetta senza pretendere di farla sua.»”
“She was a page torn from a calendar, a year folded neatly and laid aside in some place you never look.”
“FOR, IN THE FINAL ANALYSIS, our most basic common link IS THAT WE ALL INHABIT this small planet. WE ALL BREATHE THE SAME AIR. We all cherish our children’s future. AND WE ARE ALL MORTAL. —John F. Kennedy”
“Life is too short, Selva. How often has Father told us about the value of time? Time is not to be wasted.” “If life is too short, isn’t that more reason to make the most of what we’ve got? To live the way we want to?”
“The 'bad guys' are the ones who are often misunderstood”
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.
