“I'll never tire of her warm smile or bright green eyes. She's mine, in sickness and in health, till death do us part-scratch that- even in the afterlife she's mine and I'll fight any spirity-ghost bastard that attempts to fuck this up.”
― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed
“I'm the man of the house, the husband-fuck it- I'm the king, and I had to make my queen happy.”
― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed

― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed
“....They're called "better halves" for a reason, I guess. You can't have one half that's worse than you. It'd be a disaster.”
― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed
“I learned one thing; you should endeavor to find the one person you're comfortable with. You should go out of your way to find someone who makes you smile at the same time they make you mad. You should find someone who doesn't give you ultimatums, but is willing to grow with you and not for you. The right person for you will grow beacause they want to, not because you want them to. You should find someone who knows exactly how to make it up to you when they make mistakes- and remember, everyone makes mistakes.
No one should settle for less.
Everyone deserves their own Seth.”
― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed
“I’m egotistical, spoiled and arrogant. She’s kind, generous, and thoughtful.
They’re called ‘better halves’ for a reason, I guess.
You can’t have one half that’s worse than you. It’d be a disaster.”
― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed
“Seth looks positively delicious in a black three piece suit, but personally, I think it'll look better on the floor somewhere- maybe thrown over the seats in the car.”
― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed
“Don Russell took from Seth and Seth doesn't fare well when his things are taken.”
― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed
“I'm the man of the house, the husband-fit it- I'm the king, and I had to make my queen happy.”
― Skyla Madi, quote from Forever Consumed
“none to molest them or make them afraid.”
― Frederick Douglass, quote from Life and Times of Frederick Douglass
“Just behind his jaw bones a tiny movement was perceptible, like the movement of gills in a fish.”
― John Collier, quote from Fancies and Goodnights
“The eye of the human understanding is not a naked organ of perception (lumen siccum), but an eye imbued with moisture by Will and Passion. Man always believes what he determines to believe.”
― Francis Bacon, quote from Essays
“the madman bum and angel beat in Time, unknown, yet putting down here what might be left to say in time come after death, and rose reincarnate in the ghostly clothes of jazz in the goldhorn shadow of the band and blew the suffering of America’s naked mind for love into an eli eli lamma lamma sabacthani saxophone cry that shivered the cities down to the last radio with the absolute heart of the poem of life butchered out of their own bodies good to eat a thousand years.”
― Allen Ginsberg, quote from Collected Poems 1947-1997
“It seems that the most significant events in our lives happen while we’re worried about something else happening.”
― Richard Paul Evans, quote from The Gift
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.
