“Everything has changed since I met you. I thought I knew who I was, what I was, but being with you, I’ve learned about the kind of man I want to be.”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“I'm so fucking happy you're here," he whispered. "It makes it hurt less.”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“You think I’m broken, don’t you? You think I should be fixed. You want me to be normal. I’ll never be your version of normal, Lis. I’ll never be like you – like them.”
“I’m not trying to fix you, Daniel. I just want you to be happy. I love you just the way you are.”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“I don’t want to be defined by this.”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“It’s like doing one of those dumb math problems: three people are driving at 20mph in a car carrying two gallons of gas and a horse doing yoga, when a car traveling at 30mph with two clowns drinking cola collides, what time is it in Tokyo? It doesn’t make any sense and the only answer I ever come up with is who”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“He didn’t care what people thought about the way he looked. He knew that his tats, his piercings, the way he dressed, gave people a giant fuck off message, and that suited him just fine. That shit was deliberate.”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“What do you want, Lisanne?”
“You,”
“Are you sure? You don’t get to have your first time again, baby doll. This isn’t how I’d imagined it.”
“You’ve imagined it… with me?”
“Are you fucking kidding me? You are hot. I’ve wanted you since I met you, but I figured you just wanted to be friends. That’s cool. I like having a friend who’s a girl.”
“Can I just… can I touch you?”
He nodded slowly, his eyes following her hand as it moved shakily to his waistband.
Softly, she laid her hand over his crotch and felt his heat and hardness. He inhaled deeply.
“You are so fucking sexy.”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“No, baby, I’m all man,” he said with a smirk, winking at her. “Want me to prove it?”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“Honey, if you're not sure it was a date, then it wasn't. A guy has to ask you on a date for it to be a date. It's different from just hanging out together.”
― Jane Harvey-Berrick, quote from Dangerous to Know & Love
“You have to walk a mile in another man's shoes before you judge him.”

“Eleanor," Daniel said. "Miss Fitt! Wake up!"
I fluttered my eyelids open. "I'm not a misfit anymore," I rasped. "I thought I told you that.”

“Yo solía pensar que tomar fotografías me haría ver mejor las cosas, congelar el momento, recordarlo por siempre. Pero me di cuenta que la única forma de hacerlo es vivir el momento, no verlo detrás de un lente. En realidad no necesitamos fotografías o infinidad de videos o de recuerdos o anillos de compromiso para recordar esos momentos especiales, ya que siempre están aquí. Incluso si se desvanecen un poco por el tiempo, un día el sol brillará en el cielo en una mañana particular de un modo particular, o descubriremos un objeto perdido hace mucho tiempo, una caracola, quizás, o una tarjeta… y todo vendrá otra vez. Y las memorias serán buenas y seremos afortunados de tenerlas. Y luego nos sentiremos bendecidos de tener siquiera la oportunidad de hacer más…”
― Ali Harris, quote from The First Last Kiss
“I know I’m old school, but I believe that pain can be the most important tool in a person’s life. It forces a person to pay attention to something that needs to be changed. I worry that drugs like sleeping pills mask pain just enough that the real root of the problem gets buried, deeper and deeper. A problem—even something like grief—just doesn’t go away until it’s dealt with.”
― Suzanne Woods Fisher, quote from A Lancaster County Christmas
“Leaders who doubt that success is possible and who fear the worst should immediately change their attitude or resign so a true leader can take their place.”
― Henry T. Blackaby, quote from Spiritual Leadership: Moving People on to God's Agenda
“Folly is the only thing that keeps youth at a stay and old age afar off;" as it is verified in the Brabanders, of whom there goes this common saying, "That age, which is wont to render other men wiser, makes them the greater fools.”

Dead BeatBookQuoters 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.
