― Travis Luedke, quote from Blood Slave

― 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.”

“Mooch? What does that word mean?”
Ellie smiled. “It’s a term when you live with someone and take something freely from the person who has to work for it. It’s not a good thing. It’s hard to explain that one. I guess I could describe it as I’m a burden to him.”
“How? He already had a room you could have.”
Ellie struggled with her thoughts. Some words were hard to explain. “Yes. He did but usually you don’t live with someone unless you are a couple. Then it is acceptable if you share food and a home. If you aren’t, then both parties are supposed to work, similar to a partnership, be equal. I am not his girlfriend or his partner. He provides a home and food for me while I give him nothing in return. I’m a mooch.”
“I think I understand.” Breeze smiled. “And you are not a mooch. He doesn’t know what one is so therefore you can’t be what he doesn’t know exists.”
― Laurann Dohner, quote from Fury
“Та както си лежах гол и зяпах в тавана, а блондинката лежеше до мен и също гледаше тавана, внезапно скочих, грабнах божурите от вазата, окъсах венчелистчетата им и ги посипах върху корема на госпожицата, беше тъй прекрасно, та чак сам се изумих, а госпожицата се надигна и също се загледа в корема си, ала листенцата почнаха да падат и аз я побутнах нежно назад, нека си лежи, откачих от куката огледалото и го нагласих така, че госпожицата да може да се любува на корема си, колко е прекрасен, обсипан с прецъфтели листенца от божур, и викам, ще бъде прекрасно, всеки път като дойда, във вазата да има цветя, ей така ще ти украсявам коремчето, тя рече, че такова нещо още не й се било случвало, такава почит към нейната красота, и ми вика още, че се била влюбила в мен заради тези цветя, а аз казах, колко красиво ще е по Коледа, като накъсам елхови клонки и украся коремчето й с тях, а тя вика, че още по-прекрасно ще е, ако я украся с бял имел, а най-добре ще бъде, и то трябва да се уреди час по-скоро, на тавана над леглото да има огледало, за да се гледаме, както си лежим, и най-вече колко е красива тя, когато е гола с венец около рунтавелката й, венец, който ще се сменя според сезона и цветята, характерни за съответния месец, колко красиво ще е, като я украся с маргаритки и момини сълзи, или с хризантеми, димитровчета и с пъстри есенни листа… и станах аз и запрегръщах сам себе си, чувствах се толкова висок, като си тръгвах и дадох двеста крони, но тя ми ги върна, аз обаче ги сложих на масата и излязох, и имах чувството, че съм висок метър и осемдесет, подадох и на госпожа Райска сто крони през прозорчето, откъдето се бе надвесила и ме гледаше през очилата си… излязох навън в нощта, небето над тъмните улички бе осеяно със звезди, но аз виждах единствено всички ония омайничета, и кокичета, и иглики по целия корем на русокосата госпожица, вървях и с всяка крачка все повече се радвах на себе си, как може да ми хрумне тази идея, да я гарнирам като поднос с шунка със зеленчуци, да гарнирам така прекрасния женски корем с космато хълмче по средата, и тъй като знаех доста за цветята, продължавах да си мечтая и обличах голата златокоска с очиболец, венчелистчета от лалета и перуники, и си казвах, че има още много какво да се измисли, щото туй развлечение ще мие през цялата година, с пари може да се купи не само красива девойка, но с пари може да се купи и поезия.”

Freak the MightyBookQuoters 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.
