“Listen, I don't want things to get weird, okay."
"Oh, yeah, no, weird is bad."
"But just so you and I are clear, I really fucking want to kiss you right now.”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Immortal
“Please,” Eddie implored. “Not Lassiter. Anybody but Lassiter—he could be anywhere on the planet, doing anything.”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Immortal
“Joy was worn like a new suit of clothes on people. You could see it on every inch of them, from their step to their stare. But sadness and loss were hidden, kept quiet under composure and the shelter of daily activity.”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Immortal
“just as children have growing pains as their bodies work to attain maturity, as people’s souls deepen and gain resonance it’s the same thing. To be challenged, to stretch, to get stronger comes only with the hard stuff—loss, heartache, disappointment.”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Immortal
“At the end of the day, people have to earn the right to be in your life,”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Immortal
“Lassiter,” Ad and Colin said together. At the sound of the name, even Devina rolled her eyes. “Oh, Christ. Him again.”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Immortal
“What do you think?” she asked in his voice. “We should totally remember this for Halloween, right?”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Immortal
“Lassiter had been the wild card, and he had not lasted. Distracted by physical yearnings, he had gotten into epic trouble and been banished, lost to a destiny and destination of which Colin was only vaguely aware.”
― J.R. Ward, quote from Immortal
“last page of the book from Hell. Putting her hands on the small of her back, she stretched for the one hundredth time and looked over at”

“The lie that is known to be a lie is half eradicated, but the lie that even intelligent persons regard as a sacred fact – the lie that has been inculcated around a mother’s knee – is more dangerous to contend against than a creeping pestilence.”
― quote from Might is Right
“There's this truth about mirrors. It's inescapable. But they can lie, too. They can distort the truth, even hide the truth. They create illusion.”
― Jodi Meadows, quote from The Mirror King
“You have to remember every piece that's been played, even the ones removed from the board, because some of them might count against you in the end.”
― E.K. Johnston, quote from Ahsoka
“Starting now, I'm leaving the past alone in the past.”
― Alexandra Bracken, quote from Through the Dark
“She chose to fight men everyday, and then fight their sons, who thought they knew better than their fathers.”
― E.K. Johnston, quote from A Thousand Nights
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.
