“What?” Eric shook his head. “Angel Moreno is into talking to chicks now? When did you turn into a total wuss?"
Angel shrugged, and took another bite of his food.
He avoided looking at Eric; suddenly not sure he wanted to talk about it. “I don’t know, dude, she’s just cool to hang with, I guess.”
Eric nodded, as if he got it. “So, you’re not into her? I thought she was pretty hot.”
“I’m into her, you ass, just ‘cause I didn’t bone her the first night. Not all girls are like that, you know.”
Eric grinned. “So, you did get shot down.”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“When he finally opened his eyes he saw her sit up
and smile at him. She was beautiful, her dark hair was
tousled, and her green eyes glimmered. God have mercy.
He’d died and gone to heaven.”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“His heart still hammered away but he was strangely relieved. "Stop saying that, Sarah. You have nothing to be sorry about. This is my fault and intend on fixing it. But I won't let you back out now, sweetheart. I can't. It may not be too late for you but there's no turning back for me."
~Angel~
Forever Mine”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“He always felt like an untamed animal around Sarah, but lately it was different. She was all he ever thought about, and any time away from her felt too long. Angel closed his eyes and kissed her. Then the words came out without warning. 'I love you, Sarah.'" -Angel Moreno”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“Don’t even say it.” He took her hand and put it to his chest. His heart beat so hard he could feel the pulse raging in his throat. “You’re scaring me. I can’t believe you don’t see how crazy I am about you.”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“She likes playing the saxophone, Romero, not the piccolo Pete.”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“Estaba loco de amor. No había manera de ocultarlo. Esto lo preocupaba un poco. Nunca había estado enamorado, pero esto se sentía muy cercano. Demasiado cerca.”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“Este güey anda bien clavado”, sonrió Eric.”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“Nunca hicimos el amor. Tuvimos sexo, frío, sin sentido, igual como lo has tenido con otros. No significó nada para mí. Tú no significas nada para mí. Aléjate de mi puta vida. Te lo digo en serio.”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“Cuando finalmente abrió los ojos, la vio a ella sentada y sonriéndole. Era hermosa, su cabello oscuro estaba revuelto y sus ojos verdes brillaban. Dios era misericordioso. Él había muerto y se había ido al cielo.”
― Elizabeth Reyes, quote from Forever Mine
“Internet, automobiles, trains, planes, house, diets, clothes, gadgets and toys exceeded all our basic needs. Today, we tend to go beyond and above. ”
― quote from A Curious Mind: Foster Your Creative Potential For Better Life
“I could have clasped the red walls to my bosom as a garment of eternal peace. "Death," I said, "any death but that of the pit!" Fool! might I have not known that into the pit it was the object of the burning iron to urge me?”
― Edgar Allan Poe, quote from The Pit and the Pendulum (University Study Edition)
“He burned with the need to hug her. But since their reconciliation they’d kept each other at arm’s length, as if they were both aware that to step into the murky waters of physical contact would break down the delicate dam they’d created.”
― Carrie Elks, quote from Fix You
“All I wanted was my money. Instead, I got you. You, the one person in the world I have to convince I’m charming, and on top of that I find out that my texts are annoying.”
― Rachel Higginson, quote from Bet in the Dark
“Young Reverend Ayers looks at a lake and sees only his own reflection in it; that is what God is to him. He does not see the creatures that live down deep, the dragonflies that hover, the frog on the lily pad.” Auntie’s face was full of pity and scorn as she shook her head and spat tobacco juice again. “His heart and mind are closed to the true beauty of the lake, the place where all its magic lies.”
― Jennifer McMahon, quote from The Winter People
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.
