'Well I've never,' Jane gasped.
'Clearly. You should try it some time. I understand Mr Smith is so vision impaired you might have a shot there.'
Their appalled shrieks were music to my ears and I quickly made my escape.”
“Do you mind if we leave here so I can chain smoke 'til I throw up so it will be easier to quit?”
“Life happens whether we are ready or not—the only choice or control we have is whether or not we will rise to meet its challenges.”
“I figured since I’d arrived in Crazytown, I may as well take off my coat and stay a while.”
“Do not mess with my friends, myself or my Prada.”
“jumping up and down like a Mexican jumping bean on crack.”
“I was speechless. Rare for me, but if anyone was capable of shocking me to silence, it was my mother.”
“When you die, the only things you leave behind are memories in the minds of those who loved you. That was how you lived on.”
“Ready does not factor into the equation, Angel. Life happens whether we are ready or not—the only choice or control we have is whether or not we will rise to meet its challenges.”
“What is she?” I asked him. He paused and considered my question. “She’s a bitch. A horrible, horrible bitch.” He looked down at her and laughed. “But she’s my bitch.”
“I’m not ready for all this.” “Ready does not factor into the equation, Angel. Life happens whether we are ready or not—the only choice or control we have is whether or not we will rise to meet its challenges.”
“Oookay, that was seriously confusing, especially the part about the Warrior Prince being a taco stand,” I laughed, trying to thaw the icy chill in the room.”
“He was so delighted when I bested him that he slapped me on the back and sent me flying into a tree, which I knocked down. It was a hundred year old oak.”
“Hear it smells like road kill in ninety degree weather on that side of the building,”
“I was just pissy and bored and horny and lonely. It was a bad combination. Bad.”
“You wouldn't find it funny if you had zipper tracks permanently pressed into your dick.”
“Mick reached backwards without breaking eye contact and ran his hand across the door behind him, “See this?” he said. “This is my door. And no-one is touching my door today.” He shook his head slowly as if the issue wasn’t even up for debate.
Surle said nothing, just stared.
Mick swung his sword lazily, pointing towards the floor between himself and the infamous Marshal, “See this floor here? This floor is my porch,” he said. “And no-one is welcome on my porch today, especially you.”
Still nothing from Surle, just silence.
“So why don’t you just sod off like a good little lackey?”
“Everything is so fast and awful, isn't it, Noah?"
"The world has become like that.”

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.
