“I am not an exhibitionist anymore. I don't need to show of my beautiful body to anyone. I'm sexy and I know it, and I don't give a shit if anyone else knows it. ”
― Travis Luedke, quote from Blood Slave
“The say beauty conquered the beast, but I'll bet lust had a lot to do with it.”
― Travis Luedke, quote from Blood Slave
“No matter what happens, no matter how bad things get, as long as we have love, there's always hope for salvation.”
― Travis Luedke, quote from Blood Slave
“As he left me in bed, bruised and sore, he had missed the big picture. His promise came too late. He had already hurt me.”
― Travis Luedke, quote from Blood Slave
“A friend helps you move; a real friend helps you move a body.”
― Travis Luedke, quote from Blood Slave
“Apart from the small issue of being hunted by Colombian cartel and enslaved for life, I had it pretty damn good.”
― Travis Luedke, quote from Blood Slave
“I have often thought I should change my name to something more fitting. 'Damned for all eternity' or 'Swims in the lake of fire'. I'll have to think on that some more, find a way to condense it so it rolls off the tongue better.”
― Travis Luedke, quote from Blood Slave
“Самая развращённая женщина, продавая своё будущее, хочет прежде всего полного оправдания своему прошлому и пытается внушить любовнику, что обменивает на невыразимое блаженство уважение, в котором теперь откажет ей свет.”
― Honoré de Balzac, quote from A Woman Of Thirty
“La vita non è perfetta. O prevedibile. Non aspettatevi che lo sia.
Un minuto prima state nuotando nell'oceano. L'acqua è liscia e tranquilla, siete rilassati. E un attimo dopo, senza alcun preavviso, una risacca vi trascina a fondo.
È quello che farete dopo a contare. Farete tutto il possibile? Scalcerete per tornare a galla, anche se le braccia e le gambe vi fanno male? O vi arrenderete e vi lascerete annegare?
È il modo in cui reagite agli imprevisti della vita a fare la differenza.”
― Emma Chase, quote from Twisted
“We all attach things to our hearts, the things we value, the things we need, the things that make us who we are. But maybe . . . maybe it's only when our hearts are broken, that those things can fall inside.”
― Mia Sheridan, quote from Finding Eden
“The heavy round face was looking at him, the hard look of a man who had also understood, who had seen all the stupidity, who knew, after all, that the gold stars were often mindless decoration, that the army was led not by symbols, but by the fallible egos and blind fantasies of men.”
― Jeff Shaara, quote from Gods and Generals
“It is possible for music to be labeled "Christian" and be terrible music. It could lack creativity and inspiration. The lyrics could be recycled cliches. That "Christian" band could actually be giving Jesus a bad name because they aren't a great band. It is possible for a movie to be a "Christian" movie and to be a terrible movie. It may actually desecrate the art form in its quality and storytelling and craft.”
― Rob Bell, quote from Velvet Elvis: Repainting the Christian Faith
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.
