“There are no mistakes, Eden, just different outcomes to our flawed expectations.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“You were patient all this time. I had to find myself first; I had to remember who I was and become the person I was meant to be. You have been there for me patiently while I searched for you, even when I didn't know I was looking for you, you were there.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“I believed I would never trust another person for as long as I lived. Yet, I couldn't help but trust him; the decision was made before I even realized what was happening. He forced my soul back into innocent belief, not by empty words or false promises but by consistent action that never failed. He was safe.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“He forced my soul back into innocent belief, not by empty words or false promises but by consistent action that never failed. He was safe.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“If there were only success in your life, you would not learn anything. Leadership is experience and you are still young. You still have much to learn about our people and war; it should not come easy to you. If it did, you would be robbed of life's most valuable teacher.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“Nevertheless this was life. I could wish that life was fair and that things were different, but this is what it was and I was determined to make the best of it. I needed to move forward, and fight the battles put in front of me and cherish the friendships that surrounded me.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“Whatever dude, just as long as you're ok with carrying this thing out looking like Disco Barbie, it's cool with us.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“I told you, E; we should have brought the explosives,' Xander grumbled underneath his breath in good humor.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“There are no mistakes, Eden, just different outcomes to our flawed expectations,' Gabriel recited with confidence.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“When Silas said Gabriel was a priest, I assumed he meant to a real congregation, not the caretaker of an empty building threatening to send the entire street of people to meet Jesus literally at any moment, and not just emotionally.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“One day, we will sit together and remember how we changed things. We will remember the way things used to be, and teach our children to be better than us. The generations that follow will remember with us. In that day, we will all be free, I vowed.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“With that admission, I knew I could walk away. Because I could admit what I genuinely wanted, I could also realize what I wanted would have consequences. And, I had goals and desires that went beyond the present, far beyond this dream and this moment.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“You are not a bad leader, Eden. If there were only success in your life, you would not learn anything. Leadership is experience and you are still young. You still have much to learn about our people and war; it should not come easy to you. If it did, you would be robbed of life's most valuable teacher.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Fearless Magic
“sometimes relationships don't make sense or fit into natural order, sometimes are were written in the stars.”

“I think this ‘When does life begin’ argument is kind of cute, but it’s dead end. If we let it go long enough somebody will get punched in the nose, or Brittain will have a coronary incident. No offense, Sally, but most of the right-to-lifers I know—and I know a lot of them because they call at our house pretty regularly to say how much they hate my dad—get all wrapped up with life in the womb, and life after death, for that matter, but they don’t give a rip about life after birth. All you have to do is look around to see we’ve got big trouble in that area. People are starving to death all over the world. Their lives are spent trying to get something into their bellies, which they never get, and then they die. And to tell you the truth, the people who seem willing to fight to the death, or who are at least willing to carry a poster in front of the Deaconess clinic, are politically against giving them anything. The second they’re born, they’re on their own.”
― Chris Crutcher, quote from Staying Fat for Sarah Byrnes
“What did you—" He swallowed. His voice was raspy. "What did you do to him?"
"Sightseeing. Your turn."
He shivered. "No, that's all right.”
― Steven Gould, quote from Jumper
“Frostpine swivelled his head like an irate owl "The air is cold, wet, and moving”
― Tamora Pierce, quote from Cold Fire
“The thing I never understood about love is that it can't be quelled, like lust can. With love, if you follow its call, if you give in to it, it just gets worse. The more you have, the deeper you go, the more you need.”
― Emily Maguire, quote from Taming the Beast
“Who has time to make up stories when the truth is so much more interesting?”

A Spy in the HouseBookQuoters 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.
