“You won't hurt me. I know you won't." Logan said.
"How can you be so sure?" I whispered.
"Because you're that Gypsy girl, and I'm the bad-boy Spartan. And I think it's time we were finally together, don't you?”

“something about the stillness or my state of mind reminded me of the world’s remarkable capacity to carry on in every place at once.”

“The fourth cat stepped forward; Yellowfang didn’t know his name. He was a skinny gray tom, and he studied Brokentail carefully before he spoke. “I give you a life for truth. Without it, kin is set against kin, Clan against Clan. Hold fast to truth in all your dealings and let it guide your words.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Yellowfang's Secret
“Well, I’ve learnt this much: it doesn’t matter
what it costs, it’s worth paying the price. You can’t live cheap
and you can’t live for nothing. Pay the price and be proud you’ve
paid it, that’s what I reckon.”
― John Marsden, quote from Darkness, Be My Friend
“mentally than the other guy, and you’re tougher mentally because”
― John Grisham, quote from Bleachers
“«La imagen de un hombre haciéndose pajas había sido una de sus principales maneras de excitarse. ¿Por qué? Si sus propias sensaciones podían servirle de guía, follar con otra persona nunca salía del todo bien, nunca exactamente como debía. Le había encantado la idea de que fuera así, un hombre ciego con su propio placer.
»Y el autoerotismo era el sanctasanctórum, la auténtica definición de lo privado. Un número indeterminado de amantes de tiempos pasados se habían mostrado muy dispuestos a probar todas las variantes típicas y unas cuantas más, pero lo único que esos hombres nunca estaban dispuestos a hacer por voluntad propia —con una memorable excepción— era masturbarse delante de ella. Sin embargo, ése era el descubrimiento inicial del que manaba todo el sexo; era la fuente.
»La mayoría de los chicos se habrían masturbado cientos de veces antes de conocer carnalmente a una chica, y es famoso el poder alucinógeno de las pajas de la adolescencia. La torpeza y los titubeos característicos de tantos episodios en que las mujeres pierden la flor deben de ser, en comparación, una decepción a escala mundial.
»Incluso en la vida adulta, es casi seguro que muchos hombres siguen experimentando un éxtasis muy superior meneándosela encima del inodoro mientras piensan en una pareja imaginaria, que llevándose a la cama a mujeres de carne y hueso con celulitis y una irritante compulsión a decir “en realidad...” al comienzo de cada frase. Curioso, ¿no? Puesto que lo mismo podía decirse de las mujeres, lo verdaderamente curioso era por qué alguien se tomaba la molestia de follar».”

HannibalBookQuoters 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.
