“Ayden saw me and his body slumped. “Oh, thank God.” “Please,” Matthias said. “I told you she’s too hard to kill.” “Aww,” I said. “Thank you.” Matthias offered me a sweet smile. “Just like a cockroach.” ”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Demons in Disguise
“I’d prefer a debriefing by the professional,” Matthias said. “Rather than one of the idiot’s exhausting, million-words-in-one-breath babbling explanations.” “Hey,” I said. “That is a rare talent.” “Maybe your only talent.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Demons in Disguise
“Like Harry Potter’s cape?” I said. “Yes.” Matthias’s grey eyes gave me a flat look, his voice heavy on the sarcasm. “Just like that. You’re such a moron.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Demons in Disguise
“Actually,” Jayden said, “Not completely unlike the Cloak of Invisibility, although different in that those individuals using these devices wouldn’t become completely invisible. Exactly.” “So nothing like it,” Matthias said. “Moron status secured.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Demons in Disguise
“She’s dying?!” “What?!” “He didn’t say that!” “Let me evaluate the severity of her injuries!” “Dude, get your stupid medical bag.” “It’s not so stupid now that we need it, is it?!” “Shut the bloody hell up and get the bag!”

“In what world is Armani here seventeen?” Cristiano shrugged unapologetically. “They feed us better in Italy.”

“You need to ratchet down the crazy town.”

“Nuh-uh.” Blake shook his head. “Nothing gets trapped in my brain.” No one argued.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Demons in Disguise
“Jayden didn’t take his eyes off me as he put a hand on Blake’s face and shoved him back. “Be gone.”
― A.E. Kirk, quote from Demons in Disguise

“You can't persuade most of the public that education and making a living aren't the same thing.”
― Robertson Davies, quote from The Rebel Angels
“His hands moved over my back, frantic. His lips were everywhere, my jaw, my chin, the length of my neck. His tongue traced my pulse point, making me hyperaware of every inch of skin. It was too much. I tore my mouth away. "Why are you doing this?" I panted. "Why now?"
His lips skimmed across my cheek. He nipped my ear. "I couldn't compete with a dead guy. You worshipped him."
"So I wouldn't forget him," I cried, desperate. I felt out of control.
Ian dug his fingers into my hair and seared his gaze with mine. "He's alive, Aimee. Flesh and blood. That I can compete with.”
― Kerry Lonsdale, quote from Everything We Keep
“Пару лет я коллекционировал авторучки. Однажды на блошином рынке во Франции я увидел, как какой-то человек передо мной взял с лотка одну ручку и стал рассматривать. По шестиугольной звезде на колпачке я сразу понял, что это “монблан”. Старый “монблан”. Я замер как вкопанный и начал повторять про себя: “ПОЛОЖИ ЕЕ, НЕ ПОКУПАЙ!” Но тщетно – человек приглядывался к ней все внимательней. Тогда мне захотелось, чтобы он умер тут же на месте, и я смог бы вынуть ручку из его окоченевших пальцев и купить сам. Он все стоял спиной ко мне, но моя ненависть была так сильна, что, должно быть, его проняло: он положил ручку, бросил испуганный взгляд через плечо и поспешно удалился.”
― Jonathan Carroll, quote from The Land of Laughs
“Someone once said that one measure of sentience was how much energy a sophont spent on matters other than survival. Fiben”
― David Brin, quote from The Uplift War
“I felt I could turn the earth upside down with my littlest finger. I wanted to dance, to fly in the air and kiss the sun and stars with my singing heart. I, alone with myself, was enjoying myself for the first time as with grandest company.”

Holy the FirmBookQuoters 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.
