“He looked at her in complete devotion. “We made a little baby…”
She smiled and giggled. “It wasn’t that hard either, was it?”
“I don’t know about you but I was working pretty hard.”
“Christopher…you are the one that’s beautiful.” She lifted her head. “And not just on the inside. You’re beautiful on the outside, too. To me…you’re perfect.” She could see several emotions move across his face before his eyes half closed...
“You say that to me…and if you’re not careful you might end up stuck with me.” It was a warning.”
“I never thought I’d have this.”
“Christopher, baby, I love you. Completely. I love your looks and everything else about you.”
She felt his hand enclose around hers. “I know you do. Ashleigh…I love you so much that it scares me. Everything I do, I have you in mind.”
“felt loneliness so vivid that he swore it had a taste.”
“This is my life, TK; my woman, my baby, my life! Nothing comes before that!”
“Nice customs curtsy to great kings.”
“Tüm aşıklar gibi Baudlino da kibirli olmuştu.”
“Those with Spanish blood, who have the fairest complexions in the land, are the wealthiest.” Esperanza”
“It is well to know that prayer is not compounded of words, words that may fail to express what one desires to say, words that so often cloak inconsistencies, words that may have no deeper source than the physical organs of speech, words that may be spoken to impress mortal ears. The dumb may pray, and that too with the eloquence that prevails in heaven. Prayer is made up of heart throbs and the righteous yearnings of the soul, of supplication based on the realization of need, of contrition and pure desire.”
“We just hide from the people we love. Sad, isn't it?”
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.
