“Hope is nice. Fucking useless in this situation, but still nice. You have one sentence before you start bleeding. Make it good.”
― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde
“Relationships are complicated."
"Not all of them. For instance, our relationship is very simple. You are annoying; I am annoyed. See? Totally uncomplicated.”
― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde
“Mitch thought she looked like an angel might—if the angel had fallen very hard into a very naughty position.”
― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde
“All of us hate to be caged, Mitch. For Hyde, and maybe Chastity, it’s necessary. But for the rest of us, it’s a choice.” Eden stalked out, wondering which choice she was making.”
― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde
“She really never lies?"

― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde

― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde

― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde
“When you visited my office the other day, did I accidentally say I couldn't wait to see you again? Because if so, I left out a word. I meant to say: I can't wait to see you never again.”
― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde
“She’d built her entire life around the idea that the only thing she could control was herself—her actions, her words.

― Lauren Stewart, quote from Hyde
“She was nice, and, while nice people often end up last, they don’t inspire violence in others.”

“What’s wrong? And why are you knocking on my door with your forehead?”
― Victoria Michaels, quote from Trust in Advertising
“They had studied law, information technology and art history as part of their beauty treatment, they had let Norwegian taxpayers finance years at university just so that they could end up as overqualified, stay-at-home playthings and sit here exchanging confidences about how to keep their sugar daddies suitably happy, suitably jealous and suitably on their toes.”
― Jo Nesbø, quote from Headhunters
“His gaze slid over Valerie, noting that her hair was nearly dry and now fell in soft, golden waves around her face. Her clean face, he noted. Anders hadn’t seen Valerie since delivering her to the Enforcer house. The dirt that had covered her then had hidden what he now saw were very fine features. The woman had incredible eyes: wide, almost emerald green, with long thick lashes surrounding them. She had a pert nose and lips that were lovely: full and puffy like tiny perfect, pale, rose pillows that needed kissing. Beautiful.”
― Lynsay Sands, quote from Immortal Ever After
“Monsters aren’t supposed to be beautiful.”
― Kitty Thomas, quote from Comfort Food
“Basically, if you want to become a good writer, you need to do three things. Read a lot, listen well and deeply, and write a lot. And don’t think too much. Just enter the heat of words and sounds and colored sensations and keep your pen moving across the page. If you read good books, when you write, good books will come out of you.”
― Natalie Goldberg, quote from Writing Down the Bones: Freeing the Writer Within

The Hook UpBookQuoters 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.
