“Dropped down the Rabbit Hole, with hot models gone wild..."- Riley Dawson”
― Alyssa Day, quote from Atlantis Rising
“The rebel leader and the priest.”
― Alyssa Day, quote from Atlantis Rising
“Един дъх и една догма на единадесет хиляди години”
― Alyssa Day, quote from Atlantis Rising
“Докато Куин и Аларик напускаха стаята, Конлан бе връхлетян от момент на прозрение. Осъзна, че Куин е хванала Аларик в капана на емпатската си мрежа толкова здраво, колкото и Райли бе уловила него. Но някой морски създания се оплитаха и удавяха в мрежи. И Аларик изглеждаше като едно от тях.”
― Alyssa Day, quote from Atlantis Rising
“Пази я вместо мен Конлан - Аларик”
― Alyssa Day, quote from Atlantis Rising
“Аларик тръгна към вратата, но се спря, за да погледне към тях. Райли видя дивия блясък в очите му.
- Аз ще тръгвам. Ще се видим там. - Можеш ли да усетиш Тризъбеца? - попита го тя.
- Не, но мога да почувствам Куин. - Тя долови проблясъка на болка, преди той да затвори рязко собствените щитове на ума си. Замисли се за причината. Какво точно се беше случило между него и Куин по време на лекуването?”
― Alyssa Day, quote from Atlantis Rising
“Когато Аларик говореше, бе достатъчно опасен. А когато мълчеше, бе смъртоносен. Жрецът се взираше в него, без да мига и изглеждаше почти нечовешки в своето спокойствие. Ако някога някой мъж бе изглеждал неподходящ за свещеничество, то Конлан би назовал Аларик. Жрецът беше висок, колкото него, а силното му мускулесто тяло подхождаше на смъртоносната заплаха в очите му. Никой ученик обаче не би го потърсил, за да му разкаже история за детинските си пакости в изповедалнята, това бе сигурно. И все пак се говореше, че повече от една жена, съблазнена от тъмната красота на Аларик, таи надежда да убеди мрачния жрец да... кривне... от обета за безбрачие.”
― Alyssa Day, quote from Atlantis Rising
“Boring and unpleasant did not mean a task was 'unfruitful,' a fact a lot of people seemed not to know, or to willfully ignore.”
― Stephen King, quote from The Tommyknockers
“Panic is something that good operations officers plan for.”
― Tom Clancy, quote from The Sum of All Fears
“Legionnaire’s disease hit a group of predominantly white, heterosexual, middle-aged members of the American Legion. The respectability of the victims brought them a degree of attention and funding for research and treatment far greater than that made available so far to the victims of Kaposi’s sarcoma.
I want to emphasize the contrast, because the more popular Legionnaire’s disease affected fewer people and proved less likely to be fatal. What society judged was not the severity of the disease but the social acceptability of the individuals affected with it…. I intend to fight any effort by anyone at any level to make public health policy regarding Kaposi’s sarcoma or any other disease on the basis of his or her personal prejudices regarding other people’s sexual preferences or life-styles”
― Randy Shilts, quote from And the Band Played On: Politics, People, and the AIDS Epidemic
“everyone knows what He’s thinking when He retires to His bed at night: that one of His best gifts—the ability to have faith in an unseen hereafter—has backfired.”
― David Eagleman, quote from Sum: Forty Tales from the Afterlives
“Eleanor's voice was below zero. 'My finest horse to whichever faerie in this room brings me that woman's left eye.'
My thoughts exactly.”
― Maggie Stiefvater, quote from Ballad: A Gathering of Faerie
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.
