“...And you, you better run because i'm going to destroy you for what you've taken from me.”
“She would see it as betrayal. Nothing more. Nothing less.”
“...and still Eden was avoiding him like he was a Bieber fan at a Korn concert.”
“Noah's mom and dad were academics and socially inept, so Noah had never invited her over to his house because his parents wouldn't like it. And Eden had never invited Noah over to her house because she didn't want him to die.”
“It was Friday tomorrow and still Eden was avoiding him like he was a Bieber fan at a Korn concert.”
“Damn this human who had come into her life and made himself so important to her; had made coming to terms with her inner monster that much more difficult to bear.”
“...Her neyse, Cyrus ve Val nerede?"
Emma gözlerini devirdi. "Noah, sana onu böyle çağırmamanı söylemiştim. Tanrı aşkına, kadın iki bin yaşında bir savaşçı, Denny's de çalışan bir garson değil."
Noah, sırıttı, kanepenin içine iyice gömülürken kollarını göğsünün üstünde birleştirdi. Uzun boylu, uzun bacaklı esmer kadını düşününce sırıtması şehvetli bir sırıtışa dönüştü. "Hey, o bana otuz yaşındaki seksi bir kadın gibi görünüyor ama."
Annesi kafasını iki yana sallayarak homurdandı. "O seni canlı canlı yer çocuğum."
"Doğru. Ama bu benim hoşuma gidebilir."
"Ah." Emma suratını ekşitip Noah'ın kafasına vurdu. "Annenle böyle konuşma.”

“ANTIGONE Yea, for these laws were not ordained of Zeus, And she who sits enthroned with gods below, Justice, enacted not these human laws. Nor did I deem that thou, a mortal man, Could’st by a breath annul and override The immutable unwritten laws of Heaven. They were not born today nor yesterday; They die not; and none knoweth whence they sprang. I was not like, who feared no mortal’s frown, To disobey these laws and so provoke The wrath of Heaven. I knew that I must die, E’en hadst thou not proclaimed it; and if death Is thereby hastened, I shall count it gain. For death is gain to him whose life, like mine, Is full of misery. Thus my lot appears Not sad, but blissful; for had I endured To leave my mother’s son unburied there, I should have grieved with reason, but not now. And if in this thou judgest me a fool, Methinks the judge of folly’s not acquit.”
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.
