Quotes from Crossroads

“Doing what?” I asked, wondering if I had done something wrong.
“Melting my heart with your smile,” he said.”
― Mary Ting, quote from Crossroads

“CLAUDIA: I love you as high as the sky and as deep as the sea.

MICHAEL: Multiply my love by infinity and take it to the depths of forever, and you still have only a glimpse of how much I feel for you. I love you more.”
― Mary Ting, quote from Crossroads

“Love is everything when you find it. It can take you places and make you feel like you’ve never felt before. It makes you strong, and at the same time, it can make you feel vulnerable because you give all of yourself completely. Humans are unique because we can feel it and give it.”
― Mary Ting, quote from Crossroads

“You shouldn’t frown, even when you are upset, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.”
― Mary Ting, quote from Crossroads

“Life isn’t worth living, unless you have someone worth dying for.”
― Mary Ting, quote from Crossroads

“was just a toddler when my grandmother passed away, and Gamma filled the void by visiting frequently. She never got married, so we became her family. She was a great help to Mom and took care of me, especially when she had to work the late shifts. Gamma pampered me, which was the best part. But at the same time, she sheltered me, perhaps too much.”
― Mary Ting, quote from Crossroads

“What pleases your eyes?” he asked. “You,” I said without hesitation.”
― Mary Ting, quote from Crossroads

About the author

Popular quotes

“When I told you don’t touch me to wake me, ever, because I’ve been in a war and I react violently, you respected me.” For a plant person, Rosethorn could sound like iron when she made a point with someone stupid. “Evvy was in that same war. She fought as hard as any adult—harder, sometimes. Yet you refuse to acknowledge that she may suffer the same effects.”
― Tamora Pierce, quote from Melting Stones

“It is possible that what stirred inside her head at that moment was her brain, waking up. She was nine years old, and she was in the third-A grade at school, but that was the first time she had ever had a whole thought of her very own. At home, Aunt Frances had always known exactly what she was doing, and had helped her over the hard places before she even knew they were there; and at school her teachers had been carefully trained to think faster than the scholars. Somebody had always been explaining things to Elizabeth Ann so carefully that she had never found out a single thing for herself before. This was a very small discovery, but it was her own.”
― Dorothy Canfield Fisher, quote from Understood Betsy

“I like you, period."
"I like you, exclamation point.”
― Olivia Cunning, quote from Wicked Beat

“The world broke open like a big white egg.”
― Cressida Cowell, quote from How to Cheat a Dragon's Curse

“There’s nothing lonelier than a hand on glass. Maybe because it’s so rarely reciprocated.”
― Julie Buxbaum, quote from Tell Me Three Things

About BookQuoters

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.
