“You're not seriously going?" Troy asks.
"Of course I'm going," I say. "What other choice do I have?"
"Um...not going.”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“How do you expect to do that?",I asked,"Do you have some sort of get-out-of-Hades-free card?”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“The Library of Alexandria?" I ask. "Didn't that burn down?"
Mrs Philipoulus scoffs. "Damn fool Hypatia. Athena tried to convince her to install a sprinkler system. But no-o-o, no one was going to tell the librarianatrix how to run her library.”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“Did you-"
Griffin shoves past him and grabs me by the shoulders. "Are you alright?"
"Of course. Didn't they tell you?"
From the dark look in his normally bright eyes, I'm going to guess no.
He twists to look back over his shoulder and practically growls. "They didn't tell me anything. Except that I had to wait out here."
"Um, I need to go," Troy says, backing down the steps. "I have class in the morning."
"Coward," I taunt.”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“We believe in you, Phoebe," Stella says. "You just have to believe in yourself."
I roll my eyes behind the blindfold. As if that's not a cheesy, movie-of-the-week line.”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“Troy, I have to find out what happened to my dad."
"We know what happened to your dad. He got smoted. End of story.”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“We all know Damian's big on secrecy. The man makes the CIA look like a gabfest. He is Mr Need-To-Know.
As in, students never need to know.”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“NO SHORTS or SANDAL!! This for your own protection.
Tomorrow's boot camp will be something SPECIAL! Meet in front of the maintenance shed at the north end of the quad at 10 A.M! Latecomers will be left behind and this is a day you will not want to miss!

I roll my eyes. Besides her overuse of exclamation points and her tendency to yell, the idea that we're doing "something special" in camp tomorrow is not exciting. It's terrifying.”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“He has definitely cornered the market on enigma. I hope Stella goes for the deeply layered type.”
― Tera Lynn Childs, quote from Goddess Boot Camp
“Just keep in mind that sometimes when you tell yourself things are fine, you're really just driving the tough stuff even deeper.”

“Le pedí un último beso, ya que yo todavía estaba enamorada de él y necesitaba saborearlo por última vez. Nos besamos y no quería que terminara. No había esa pasión abrumadora, sólo una triste aceptación de que las cosas habían terminado. Pero fue en ese momento en que sólo quería que dijera, “espera, todavía te quiero mucho y he cometido un terrible error.” Pensé, por favor, sólo llévame de vuelta a tus brazos y volvamos a ser lo que éramos…
Pero no lo hizo. Mi corazón dolió durante meses.”
― Ali Harris, quote from The First Last Kiss
“I love a man with dishpan hands!”
― Suzanne Woods Fisher, quote from A Lancaster County Christmas
“The fact that God can bring character development and personal growth out of any situation is conditional on people's willingness to submit to God's will. God is sovereign over every life, but those who yield their will to him will be shaped according to his purposes. When God directs a life for his purposes, all of life is a school. No experience, good or bad, is ever wasted (Rom. 8:28). God doesn't squander people's time. He doesn't ignore their pain. He brings not only healing but growth out of even the worst experiences. Every relationship can be God's instrument to mature a person's character.”
― Henry T. Blackaby, quote from Spiritual Leadership: Moving People on to God's Agenda
“tis the part of a truly prudent man not to be wise beyond his condition, but either to take no notice of what the world does, or run with it for company”

Trunk MusicBookQuoters 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.
