“Good Soldiers don't sacrifice the cause for love - Lucas
If the cause isn't love then it isn't worth the sacrifice”
“I'd rather be wrong to set you free than be right to do you harm (162).”
“I love you,” he murmured. “That means I’m not just here for the pretty parts. I’m here no matter what.”
“Remember how I told you that the Vikings sacked my village and took me back with them?" Ranulf was speaking to Vic now; I'd never heard this story before. "All young men among the Vikings were taught to fight."
Vic slowly said, "This is why you kick so much ass at World of Warcraft, isn't it?”
“Vic pointed at him, two finger-guns of approval. “I like a man who knows the value of words, doesn’t spend ’em too cheap.” Ranulf nodded. “That is the manner in which I roll.”
“Los buenos soldados no sacrifican la causa por amor".
"Si la causa no es el amor, entonces no vale el sacrificio". Lucas y Bianca”
“Me gustan los hombres que conocen el valor de las palabras y no las derrochan.”
“Lucas, tu eres lo más cerca a un hermano que nunca voy a tener. Prefiero estar equivocada liberándote que tener razón haciéndote daño.-Dana”
“This could be our greatest nightmare. But maybe, intead this would be our only hope of salvation.”
“If the cause isn't for love, then it isn't worth the sacrifice.”
“—Si quieres quedarte aquí, dímelo ahora.
Lo besé y fue la única respuesta que necesitó”
“May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view… where storms come and go as lightning clangs upon the high crags where something strange and more beautiful and more full of wonder than your deepest dreams waits for you… beyond the next turning of the canyon walls. —Edward Abbey, “Benediction”
“Perhaps women have more complicated selves. They know how to do more than one thing at one time. That comes late to men. If at all.”
“He slapped one hand against the breech of the Thompson, slapped again, pulsing frustration, and said aloud, “Dammit!”
“You are on the side of angels. But even angels fall, sometimes. We all make mistakes; without them we would learn nothing.”
“I swear,” Hal said, “this place is like the Bermuda Triangle. It’s friggin’ spooky. I went out to feed the monkeys last night, and I saw the Easter Bunny walking down the road with Sasquatch. And now there are rockets shooting into the sky from nowhere.”
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.
