“Wouldn't we all look guilty, if someone searched hard enough?”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“Any one of us could be made to look a monster, with selective readings of our history.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“I want to tell them all; the world is bigger than high school.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“One moment. One picture. One glimpse—that’s all it takes to make someone think they know the truth.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“..the truth is, we made each other, like we learned about in science class. Symbiosis.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“My mom shows me her old yearbooks, and there are tons of people in there she doesn't talk to anymore. Old boyfriends, best friends… What do you think happened to them?"
"Maybe they drifted apart."
"That's stupid. You don't drift, not if someone matters to you."
"So maybe they didn't matter, not really."
"Anna?"
"Yeah?"
"I'd never do that. Leave you."
"I know. Me either.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“The truth is, it's not the act that I'm scared of, but giving myself so entirely to someone. As long as there are lines to draw and boundaries to cling to, I can pretend that I'm safe from the wanting that threatens to consume me. I'm separate, still all my own. But after...
What then? What comes after, when he has that much of me, to do with as he chooses? When I have him. Will it ever be enough?”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“Now, for the first time, I wonder if this is how my mother felt. If cancer was her prison; the chemo treatments, torture. I understand it. I would rather die.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“Do you love me?"
"You know I do."
"How much?"
"Miles and Miles."
"Deeper than the oceans?"
"Yup. More than the wind."
"Higher than Everest?"
"I don't know, that's pretty high... Ow!" (laughter)
"Admit it. You love me more than anyone."
"Maybe."
"What about you - how much do you love me?"
"Enough."
"Hey!"
"You didn't ask, 'Enough for what?'"
"Fine, then. Enough for what?"
"For Anything."
"That's Better.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“I can’t help my mind skipping over the here-and-now and racing on, to what might come next. Consequence and regret and other might-have-beens: plotting out every angle and scenario, knowing all along that the path I take means missing something else.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“After so many years drifting, not connected to anything, I'm finally tethered. Safe and loved, in the middle.
We start senior year like kings, like nothing can ever tear us apart.
We're wrong.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“Wouldn’t we all look guilty, if someone searched hard enough?”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“Everything will be okay. Trust me. I don't know how many times he's said that to me, not just here in prison but my whole life. When I was scared for the first day of school, or stressed about a big test; when I fell off my bike in sixth grade and split my lip. When my mom got sick. I always believed him. He's my father, he wouldn't lie to me; he's a grown-up, he knows the truth. But now I see his promises for what they really are: hopeful prayers, a mantra he says as much to reassure himself as me. He can't fix this, not even close.”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls
“Any one of us could be made to look a monster, with selective readings of our history,”
― Abigail Haas, quote from Dangerous Girls

“The night is still just getting started.”

― Jeff Kinney, quote from The Wimpy Kid Movie Diary
“I start thinking about what happened and then I start thinking about why I'm still here. It's pointless. They say on TV that the soldiers want to be there? I can't speak for every soldier, but I think if people went around and made a list of names of who fucking thinks we should actually be here and who wants to be here, ain't nobody that wants to be here, because there's no point. What are we getting out of fucking being here? Nothing.”
― David Finkel, quote from The Good Soldiers
“It was the shame we knew so well, the shame that drowned us after the selections, and every time we had to watch, or submit to, some outrage: the shame that the Germans did not know, that the just man experiences at another man's crime; the feeling of guilt that such a crime should exist, that it should have been introduced irrevocably into the world of things that exist, and that his will for good should have proved too weak or null, and should not have availed in defense.”
― Primo Levi, quote from If This Is a Man / The Truce
“Artists are never appreciated at lunchtime," Kelly mumbled as she stuffed her camera into her pocket.”
― quote from George
“The pleasure of despair. But then, it is in despair that we find the most acute pleasure, especially when we are aware of the hopelessness of the situation...
...everything is a mess in which it is impossible to tell what's what, but that despite this impossibility and deception it still hurts you, and the less you can understand, the more it hurts.”

The High King's TombBookQuoters 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.
