“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

“ОМОНИМИЧЕН КАЛАМБУР
Време (къде ли се време?) за обед. От качилите (наистина бяха откачили те!) се пътници автобусът беше препълнен. Видях сред тези хора (видях с ред тези хора или видях сред тез и хора, или видях с ред тез и хора???) нещо интересно – много забавен младеж (много за бавен млад еж?): шия като жираф, на главата (аз ли шия като жираф нагла вата?) – шапка и плитка (колко плитка?) на шапката. Почва (на каква почва?) този да се кара на един католик отзад (като лик отзад?), че го ръга като дъска за гладене (а нима това дъска за гладен е?). Но като забеляза (за беля за какво?) свободно място, отиде да търси подслон (но какво да търси под слон?).
Не помня по календар (по-кален дар!) коя дата беше, но след това (беше ли с лед това?) пак видях споменатото (кой спомена тато?) момче на гара (и кой видя нагара?) Сен Лазар. Негов другар (не го в друг ар слагайте!) гореше (защо ли го реше?) от желание да му даде съвет относно (как да го разбираме това “от нос, но…”?) едно копче.”
― Raymond Queneau, quote from Exercises in Style
“I didn't like being alone. Being alone was slightly better than having to deal with people, that's all. Or so I'd convinced myself.”
― Lauren Myracle, quote from Shine
“He might have run off then, and thus avoided a great many adventures to come, but the girl cried, “Wait!” and he turned to face her. “Please,” she implored from the window. “Don’t go. Come with us. I promise you won’t regret it.”
For a moment, Peter stood in the road indecisively, staring into the girl’s eyes as if trying to penetrate a great mystery.”
― Christopher Daniel Mechling, quote from Peter: The Untold True Story
“He put his fist against his chest. “Burn, Maddygirl,” he said. Then he turned and left her in the flickering gloom and thunder.”

“It’s sticking up like a bluebell!” Lionkit’s tail slapped against the frozen earth.”

Finders KeepersBookQuoters 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.
