Everything a reading notebook needs.
Leafy Quotes does one thing well: it keeps the lines worth remembering — together with the book, the author and the page they came from.
Author and book pages
Every quote leads to its book and author — portrait, cover and the rest of the passages.
A quote composer
Add a passage in a minute: pick the book from the catalogue, type the text, done.
A curated collection
New quotes go through review, so the collection stays carefully kept.
A permanent link for every quote
The passage you want to show someone has its own address — just send it.
Light and dark theme
Paper by day, ink by night — read the way that suits you.
No ads, no fees
No banners, no subscriptions. Just books and the lines they leave behind.

Why is Leafy Quotes free?
Because good lines should travel. This site was built out of love for books, not for ads.
Our mission is to get people reading — a quote is often the best book recommendation there is.
A shared collection should be open to everyone, whatever their budget.
Frequently asked questions
Got another question? Write to us — we build this site together with its readers.
Do I need an account to read?
No. The whole collection is open — an account is only needed to add quotes.
How do I add my own quote?
Create an account and use the composer: pick the book from the catalogue, type the passage and the page. After review it joins the collection.
Where do the covers and portraits come from?
Covers are shown for informational purposes, promoting the books; portraits carry their sources and licences — you'll find the details next to every image.
Can I report a mistake in a quote?
Yes — write to us and we'll fix the passage or its attribution.
Will there be a mobile app?
Yes, an iOS and Android app is in the works — testing is under way.
