“Tink, you are the best thing that's ever happened to that kid. I don't care if he only has one day left with you or twenty, you just keep doing whatever you're doing until you have to go, and I will forever worship the ground you walk on. Because a little slice of heaven is better than none at all.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero


“Ten snorted. “Like I want to hold your damn kid.”
“Hey!” I spun to deliver him a nasty glare. “Watch your mouth around my daughter, fuck face.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero


“You’re the best man I’ve ever met, Patrick Ryan. Thank you for choosing me.”

― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero

"Pick!" I rolled my eyes. He sent me an innocent glance.
"What? He's clearly rubbing it in.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero



“Excuse me? Are you saying I’m not flirt-worthy? You know, I am almost already down to my pre-pregnancy weight, and my breasts are like twice the size they normally are. Any other heterosexual man on earth would totally hit on this right now.”
“Tink, you are the most flirt-worthy girl I know,” Pick spoke up … “Get yourself something to eat. Then come back and sit by me. I’d be happy to hit on you.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero


“I think I’m going to like you, Pick Ryan.”

“He caught my hip, steadying me. “This’ll change everything,” he broke away from my mouth to say. “Once I’m inside you, you’re mine, I’m yours, and we are together. There will be no friendship and mild dating. It’s going to be all or nothing.”
I gazed up into his eyes. “Then make me your all.”
His eyes heated. “You always were.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero


“Kissing you, wanting you, just being here with you while I’m legally bound to another woman…that’s not what I should be doing. I won’t want to belong to her in any way when my heart is yours.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero


“I held my son up so that we were facing eye to eye. "We need to have words, young man. You can't keep doing this. Waking up before Daddy gets his boom-boom is just not cool.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero



“With a relenting sigh, she wrapped her arms around me and hugged me before nipping my jaw with her teeth. ''You know I won't leave. You had me at 'bullshit.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero


“Sounds like you still need to learn the parts of a woman, Pick said. Next time you guys are together, don't be afraid to explore. She won't mind. If you're touching, licking, kissing, and nibbling on every little place you go, she'll actually appreciate it. Trust me. Get down there at eye level with everything and just . . . look around. Test it out with your tongue. She'll let you know what she does and doesn't like.”
― Linda Kage, quote from Be My Hero

“Have you ever believed in something so completely that you were willing to give up everything and everyone in your life to protect it?”

“a jobs-to-be-done lens can help innovators come to market with an initial product that is much closer to what customers ultimately will discover that they value. The way to get as close as possible to this target is to develop hypotheses by carefully observing what people seem to be trying to achieve for themselves, and then to ask them about it.9”
― Clayton M. Christensen, quote from The Innovator's Solution: Creating and Sustaining Successful Growth


“read aloud from Emerson: Be true to your own act, and congratulate yourself if you have done something strange and extravagant, and broken the monotony of a decorous age. It was a high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, “Always do what you are afraid to do.” A simple manly character need never make an a-po-lo-gy…”

About BookQuoters

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.
