“Jacob: Newt . . . I don't think I'm dreaming.
Newt: What gave it away?
Jacob: I ain't got the brains to make this up.”
“See, they're currently in alien terrain, surrounded by millions of the most vicious creatures on the planet. Humans. - Newt Scamander”
“Jacob: Tell me — has anyone ever believed you when you told them not to worry?
Newt: My philosophy is that worrying means you suffer twice.”

a beat.

Newt: The what?
Tina: The No-Maj! No-magic — the non-wizard!
Newt: Oh sorry, we call them Muggles.”
“Newt: I think you'll find the best wizarding school in the world is Hogwarts!
Queenie: HOGWASH.”
“Hey, Mr English guy! I think your egg is hatching. - Jacob Kowalski”
“Tina: Oh, keep him? We don't keep them! Mr. Scamander, do you know anything about the wizarding community in America?
Newt: I do know a few things, actually. I know you have rather backwards laws about relations with non-magic people. That you're not meant to befriend them, that you can't marry them, which seems mildly absurd to me.”
“GRINDELWALD
Will we die, just a little?”
“Queenie: (trying to cheer him up) I'll come with you. We'll go somewhere - we'll go anywhere - see I ain't never gonna find anyone like -
Jacob: (bravely) There's loads like me.
Queenie: No... no...there's only one like you.”
“Mrs. Esposito (O.S.): That you, Tina?
Tina: Yes, Mrs. Esposito!
Mrs. Esposito (O.S.): Are you alone?
Tina: I'm always alone, Mrs. Esposito!”
“Tina: Tell me the truth — was that everything that came out of the case?”
“ Blonde Queenie, the most beautiful girl ever to don witches' robes, is standing in a silk slip, supervising the mending of a dress on a dressmaker's dummy. Jacob is thunderstruck. ”
“ A beat as Queenie drinks the whole story out of Newt's head. She looks both intrigued and saddened. Newt continues to work, trying hard to pretend Queenie isn't reading his mind. ”
“I do know a few things, actually. I know you have rather backwards laws about relations with non-magic people. That you're not mean to befriend them, that you can't marry them, which seems mildly absurd to me.”
“MODESTY My momma, your momma, gonna catch a witch My momma, your momma, flying on a switch My momma, your momma, witches never cry My momma, your momma, witches gonna die! As”
“NEWT: Now there's absolutely nothing for you to worry about.
JACOB: Tell me - has anyone ever believed you when you told them not to worry?
NEWT: My philosophy is that worrying means you suffer twice.”
“I’m more of a chaser, really. ANGLE”
“My philosophy is that worrying means you suffer twice”
“NEWT
Es ist meine Überzeugung, dass, wer sich sorgt, zwei Mal leidet.”
“As we understand the world better, the idea that it has a transcendent purpose seems increasingly untenable.”
“Love of England is very nearly the strongest emotion that I possess.”
“and yet, to say the truth, reason and love keep little company together now-a-days; the more the pity that some honest neighbours will not make them friends.”
“You look like hell. (Sebastian)
Yeah, well, it’s hard to look good when you’re being tortured. (Damos)”
“You want to fight with me?
Graham tugged at his tie, loosening it. “I find it turns me on.”
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.
