“...Love is easy, falling in love is even easier, but letting that love go, is the most difficult thing you’ll ever have to do. Some of us never let it go and
sometimes it takes a while to realize what you want. But your heart will always have the right answer in the end. You just have to figure out what it’s
telling you.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“Falling in love is like leaping from a cliff. Your brain screams that it’s not a good idea and that hurt and pain will inevitably come to you. But your
heart believes you can soar, glide and fly.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“With this ring, I promise you a strong shoulder to cry on. I promise to hold and care for you whenever you need me. I promise to bring you comfort when you’re sad and to defend you to the last. I give you faith, trust and commitment unfailing. I promise to love you with every breath in my lungs and beat of my heart until the end of time. I promise that the only heart I own will always belong to you and it will never beat for another as long I live. I promise picnics in the summer and cozy nights by the fire in winter. I promise to always cherish and appreciate you and everything you do and to show you every day just how much you mean to me. I will always be yours and you will always be mine. This I promise you”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“Falling in love is easy, letting that love go, is hard. But your heart will always have the right answer. You just have to listen to it and figure out what it’s telling you”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“...You never forget your first love. It’s the most awful feeling in the world to love someone who can’t love you back..”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“Breathless, I gazed into his eyes. “I love you Ollie. No matter what happens, never forget that. I will always love you. You have a piece of my heart
forever.”
Beaming at me the tip of his nose touched mine as his forehead rested against my own. “I love you too Layla. You’ve had my heart since the
moment you looked up at me from the hallway floor. You always will.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“You do know baby. You’re just scared and that’s okay. But don’t throw away your
chance for happiness because you’re afraid to take the leap or because you know someone ends up hurt. No matter what you choose, someone
was always going to end up heartbroken. But if there’s a chance two hearts can be blissfully happy together in love, then that’s worth the broken heart of one. They will mend. They will find love again and be happy. But if you do this, let them both walk away, the only heart that will break and
stay broken is yours baby.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“Wrap yourself in the sheets tightly. Feel that? Those are my arms around your waist, my head against yours and my heart beating in time with the thunder of your heart. I’m there baby. Maybe not in body but I am there with you constantly. You carry my heart on your sleeve Layla and it keeps me close to you. No matter where I am, however far apart we are, I carry you with me. You are never too far for my heart. We’re bound together.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“I will never be through with you, ever. I don’t know what I have to do to get you to realize that you’re my
everything. I exist to love you, you’re my meaning of life, my reason to be, you were made for me and I was made to make you mine. What we have
is too important to me to just throw away because of a picture and an incorrect quote. But you have got to have some faith in me Layla. I would
never hurt you, you have to know that. I may get angry, lose my temper and storm away but I will always calm down and I will always come back. I
could never leave you behind. I’d be lost without you.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“I still promise. Every day for the rest of my life. I’ll hold your dreams, wishes, hopes and fears forever. I Promise to never give up on us and to love you with every beat of my heart till the end of time.
I miss you.
Jared xxx”

“What’s complicated? I love you. You love me. It’s the simplest thing in the world.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“...Loving someone so much and knowing you can’t be with them was cripplingly painful.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“I love you. I've never met anyone that affects me the way you do. I feel like I could conguer the world, bench press a bus, and run a marathon when I'm with you. You make me feel alive and so happy I can't even think straight.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“You're my sunshine, my rain and my evening stars I feel as though I was living in the shadows and you have entered my life in a blaze of color and light which as illuminated my very existence.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“My Princess Layla
I cannot express how much I am looking forward to returning to you tomorrow. My heart feels heavy even as I write this letter and I haven’t even
departed as yet. You left my company only moments ago and yet my body, heart and soul is yearning for you to return.
I’m afraid you have to work today but at least it will distract you from counting the hours, minutes and seconds as I will be doing until I am reunited
with you.
I’m not sure how you will feel about what I say next but I hope that by the time you get this letter our relationship will have moved forward as I so
desperately want it to.
Layla Jennings I’m in love with you. Deeply, truly, madly and endlessly I love you. I want to devote my every breath to making you happy and give you
everything your heart desires.
You’re my sunshine, my rain and my evening stars. I feel as though I was living in the shadows and you have entered my life in a blaze of color and
light which has illuminated my very existence.
As for me, to love you alone, to make you happy, to do nothing which would contradict your wishes, this is my destiny and the meaning of my life -
Napoléon Bonaparte
Until tomorrow….Jared xxxx”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“I know I can’t have you but I want you. I need you, even if it’s only as my friend. I’ll take you
any way I can, even if that means settling for being one of your best friends. I will never ever bring this up again and it will never come between us.
We’ll forget it all and start over brand new. Please Layla. Please forgive me.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“God, you’re beautiful. How did I ever get so lucky? I feel like my heart’s going to explode from pure happiness. I’ve never loved anyone so much in
my entire life. I can never lose you Layla. I wouldn’t survive it, my heart would never recover.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“You had me Jared. I gave you all of me and I gave it willingly but from the first time we met you lied, hid and kept things from me. We didn’t have honesty and without it our foundations crumbled, taking us down with it. I have cried a river of tears over you and I can’t do it anymore. I don’t think I will ever stop loving you, no matter how heartbreakingly hard I try to. But it’s not enough. Let me go.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“See, I can play nicely. I didn’t spring over the booth to strangle him when he hugged you, I didn’t shatter his jaw when he kissed your cheek and I didn’t break his fingers when he held your hand. You must appreciate how hard that was for me Layla.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“Go answer your call and then come find me. I'll be waiting for you. Call it hide and seek?"
"More like hunter and prey baby, because when I find you, I'm going to completely devour you.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“Amy, I know it hurts now, but don’t give up. Out there somewhere is a guy or girl that will treat you like the princess you are. My mom always says
you have to kiss a few frogs before you find your handsome prince. Consider Nick as just another frog in your quest to find your prince. He’s out
there, I know it, waiting to come rescue you and sweep you off your feet.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“I’m
not punishing you baby. I’m just struggling with this. He loves you Layla. It’s in his eyes when he looks at you. Every time I turn around he’s gazing at
you and I can see it. I should know. It’s exactly how I feel every minute of every day. He wants you and I’m terrified that one day you’re going to
choose him. I couldn’t take it Layla. I’m close to breaking point as it is with that fucker pushing every button I have. He needs to get it into his thick
head that you’re mine and I won’t let you go without a fight.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“I know you’ll miss me, that’s what makes it a little bit easier; knowing I’ll be
in your thoughts and on your mind till you’re back in my arms.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“Layla, the first moment I laid eyes on you I knew I had to have you. I
watched you walk across that street to the coffee house in a complete daze. You were breathtaking. Fumbling around in your purse, your hair
blowing in the breeze around your face. I couldn’t take my eyes off you. In fact I was so stunned I never even noticed how close I was standing to the
door when you backed your way into it. So when you asked me how I didn’t see you through that glass, I did see you. Then when you told me you
worked here, oh Layla, I can’t lie, I was thrilled and worried all at the same time. It meant I would be able to see you whenever I wanted. That’s why I
came in the next day and every day after that, just to see you here. When you agreed to go on a date with me, I thought my head and chest would
explode from the sheer joy I felt. You were so easy to talk to and wonderfully fiery, sarcastic, yet warm and caring at the same time. I feel like I’ve
known you forever. I’ve never shared a connection with anyone like the one I have with you. So no, I don’t think it’s fast”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“Layla. I don’t know how you feel
about me. I hope you feel as deeply as I do, but I knew the moment I saw you how I felt. It hit me like a bolt of lightning right here.” He pressed my
palm against his chest, just above his heart. I drew in a sharp breath. “Layla I’m falling for you. I’m deeply, madly and completely head over heels for
you. You’re mine and I want to take care of you. Please, let me give you things while I can, let me spoil you and treat you the way you deserve. Like
a queen. My queen. I…” He took a long breath while I held mine in anticipation of his next heart stopping words.
“…I love you Layla.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“I know it’s a lot to take in. And I don’t expect you to reciprocate. I just wanted you to know how much you mean to me.
You’re my world Layla. My universe wouldn’t be complete without you in it.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“No Layla, I couldn’t. I won’t ever think he deserves you. I will always think he’s wrong for you and I will
forever wish it was me in his place. But if being civil to him and pretending that I’m not completely obsessed with you is what it takes to keep you in
my life, I’ll do it and maybe, someday I won’t have to pretend anymore. But I wouldn’t hold my breath. I even promise to stop calling him names.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“When you assume, you make an ass out of you and me.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“This world has enough to make you cry, my pain shouldn't be one of them.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together
“I will say this one last time Jared and then I never want to talk about this ever again. I love
you. I don’t care if every man in this room is in love with me because I love you. I don’t want anyone else. Ever. You’re my future now and there is no
force on earth that could change how I feel about us or keep me from you. I will only ever want you for the rest of my life.”
― Marie Coulson, quote from Bound Together

“He played the opening bars again, opening a door for her, inviting her to join. She started quietly, almost voiceless, only a thin string of sound weaving herself into his tune, as if her voice were just another string on the guitar between his fingers. She had to be careful, so no one saw the changes on her face. But she didn't want to be careful; she couldn't be careful. He played and she sang to him, and inside her more and more blocks of ice began to melt, cracking and falling into the frozen sea between them. She sang of all the things that were happening to her and him, the world that collapsed over both of them, the things that might be in store, if only they dared to believe it was possible.”

White TigerBookQuoters 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.
