“How about it, Skywalker? Will you still fight for me after we've been married for twenty-odd years?"
"What do you mean by 'still'? You do your own fighting. If I forget that, I'm not likely to survive until our twentieth anniversary."
Mara & Luke”
― Elaine Cunningham, quote from Dark Journey
“Is every third human in this galaxy named Solo?"
Khalee Lah”
― Elaine Cunningham, quote from Dark Journey
“Jaina never intended to marry the prince."
"I see. He's not a Jedi."
"True, but that's not the issue. I'm guessing that the only man Jaina would ever take seriously is one who can outfly her."
"There are not many who fit that description."
"Yeah, I've noticed that."
Kyp & Jag”
― Elaine Cunningham, quote from Dark Journey
“You will be sacrificed to the gods, and then I will tear out your heart with my own hands."
"If you still have your own hands, you're probably not as far up the ladder as you wanted us to think. Put someone else on -- someone with real authority and a few more replacement parts."
Tsavong Lah & Jaina”
― Elaine Cunningham, quote from Dark Journey
“What of your vows of vengeance?" "I'm not adding you to the list, if that's what you're wondering. It's over. I know what I am.”
― Elaine Cunningham, quote from Dark Journey

...
بعض الغناء لقوته ،
من يملك مثل هذه القوة !؟
بعض الغناء لعطاياه ..
لعلاماته و إشاراته
بعض الغناء لمجده المميز ،
عظيم هو و جميل
بعض الغناء لنعمة التحصل على معرفته ،
من خلال الدراسات الفلسفية الصعبة !
بعض الغناء لأنه من صمم الجسد ،
ثم قلّصه مرة أخرى إلى غبار
بعض الغناء لأنه من يأخذ الحياة ،
و يعيدها مرة أخرى !
بعض الغناء لأنه يبدو ..
بعيدا .. بعيدا جدا
بعض الغناء لأنه قريبا منّا جدا ،
الآن .. و في أي وقت مضى
بعض الغناء لأنه ،
لم يقصّر في ارسال من يعلموننا و يوعظوننا
ملايين و ملايين ، قدموا لنا
ملايين الخطب و الحكايات
...
المعطي العظيم مستمر في العطاء ،
بينما هؤلاء المستعطين ، يضجرون من عطاءه
و على مر العصور ، يعطي ،
.. و يستهلكون !
انه يقودنا بإشاراته
إلى السير على الطريق
اوه ناناك :
انه طريق يزهر
بالبهجة و السلام”
― Guru Nanak, quote from Sri Guru Granth Sahib
“Yet love was not something to be thrown aside lightly. It came so rarely, only a few times in a mortal life. Some- times it came but once”
― Cassandra Clare, quote from Vampires, Scones, and Edmund Herondale
“I don't do relationships because I don't want to love and lose myself.”
― J.C. Reed, quote from Surrender Your Love
“I know he brings out a better side in me, something that has been missing.” ~ Char”
― T.H. Snyder, quote from Touch Me
“People say that we're searching for the meaning of life. I don't think that's it at all. I think that what we're seeking is an experience of being alive, so that our life experiences on the purely physical plane will have resonances within our own innermost and reality, so that we actually feel the rapture of being alive.”
― Aron Ralston, quote from Between a Rock and a Hard Place
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.
