“I spent a long time thinking in bed. It’s strange how when so much is taken from you, you start to think about the otherworldly. Adam and myself would never have entertained thoughts of angels, or said prayers when we were riding high. I put the card with the feather on my bedside table and stared at it for a long time before I fell asleep.”
― Robert Bryndza, quote from Coco Pinchard's Big Fat Tipsy Wedding
“If only you could fix everything in life with an Allen key,”
― Robert Bryndza, quote from Coco Pinchard's Big Fat Tipsy Wedding
“Rocco leapt up and rushed over with licks and wuffles.”
― Robert Bryndza, quote from Coco Pinchard's Big Fat Tipsy Wedding
“Now you look like someone who is trying not to be someone, as opposed to nobody not managing to be anybody.”
― Robert Bryndza, quote from Coco Pinchard's Big Fat Tipsy Wedding
“...I bet that Judy Garland would 'ave snapped out of it if she'd 'ad me in 'er ear and not all those poofs telling 'er she was a tragic 'eroine.”
― Robert Bryndza, quote from Coco Pinchard's Big Fat Tipsy Wedding
“I haven’t hoovered, Meryl,” I said as Wilfred started to turbo crawl and disappeared round the back of the sofa. “It’s okay,” she said. “I want him to build up his resistance and be exposed to lots of germs. That’s one of the reasons we popped over.” Rosencrantz and I looked at each other.”
― Robert Bryndza, quote from Coco Pinchard's Big Fat Tipsy Wedding
“No obstante, incluso cuando los médicos se hacían los amables, no solían controlar el alcance de su capacidad para serlo. Por muy gentilmente que se expresaran, más de un mensaje de los que se veían obligados a comunicar era cruel, y si no, una mentira y, por tanto, aún más cruel. Personalmente Shep no entendía por qué alguien querría ser médico.”
― Lionel Shriver, quote from So Much for That
“She had seen what it cost him and her heart quickened with compassion. For that alone, she might have loved him almost.”
― Cecilia Dart-Thornton, quote from The Battle of Evernight
“I'm totally cool. I'm totally calm, and I'm totally cool. My calm is exceeded only by my cool. Which is total. Here we go.”
― Joss Whedon, quote from Astonishing X-Men, Volume 3: Torn
“After this is over, I want a shower in a really big bathroom."
"I'll get us the penthouse."
"What makes you think you'll be sharing it with me?"
"I live in hope.”
― Nalini Singh, quote from Angels' Flight
“Pulling my hips back slightly, I move her body so that her legs are hanging out the side of the Jeep. I push them lightly apart and step in between her thighs. She immediately wraps her long legs around my hips and all but crawls inside my body. I stand there, running my hands down her back, and let her take every ounce of strength I have in my body. I can feel her trembling against me, her tears soaking my shirt, and her heaving breath against my neck. I just keep running my hands down her back and press my lips to her head. The feel of her body and the smell that never fails to make me roll my eyes in yearning combined with the adrenaline that is still thundering through my body does nothing to help ease the need I feel to claim. To make her mine.”
― Harper Sloan, quote from Cooper
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.
