“I think I’m the most hurt by the fact that I’m not like him. I would’ve chosen him over everything else. The whole world could’ve burned down and I would’ve pulled him from the wreckage of it.”
“You’re so adorable sometimes. I almost don’t regret not killing you.”
“She’s a loner. She pays her own way. She is someone who doesn’t know her place, or if she does, she doesn’t abide by the rules. She’ll see right through your lies. She’ll steal your heart without even trying. She’ll blink at you with a million whispers in the night while she holds your hand as if she’s the only one who fits it right. You’ll want to carry her bones inside your bones.”
“You can’t be serious!” “I’m so serious.” “He’s a psychopath.” “He’s my psychopath.”
“Even swimming in sorrow, he won’t let me drown.”
“You’ve changed me. I want to be the favorite taste that touches your lips.”
“it eat my brain?” I ask. He looks confused. “No.” “Mind control?” I ask. “I wish.”
“He becomes a thief, wiping away my tears with the back of his hand, trying to steal my sorrow from me.”
“I’m not in love with him. I would never call it that. It’s more of a growing fascination with him. He’s unlike anyone I’ve ever known, but he’s maladjusted and broken—unpredictable and frightening.”
“I’m just a collection of sad stories, Kyon.” “I”
“Then you might have to kill everyone.” “So be it.” “Why are you so crazy?” I ask as I gently rest my forehead against his chest.”
“No one has ever worn my clothes before.” “No one would dare,” I murmur. “You’re a scary beast.” “You dared.” “I did, but I have a problem with authority.” He”
“He has an equal stack of pancakes on his plate. He picks up his fork and says, “You know these aren’t very good for Pretty Town.”
“You. Must. Chill. Do you know what that means?” He looks at me in exasperation. “I never know what you’re trying to say. I have no idea what being cold brings to this situation.” For”
“Truth is what people want to believe and nothing more.”
“Jeff felt it flow through him, the electric freshness of the once more unpredictable world out there.”
“You know,' I whispered, 'some girls might think it's creepy having a boy watch them sleep.'
He smirked and pointed to himself. 'Spy.'
'Oh.' I nodded. 'Right. So you're a trained Peeping Tom.'
'Product of the best peeping academies in the country.'
'Well, now I feel much better.'
'You should.”
“Seth hustled over. “What’s the password?”
“Passwords are for sissies,” Warren’s muffled voice responded.

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.
