“Addy, living one day without you would never be for the best. I want you every minute of every day. Forever. I love you.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Life is pain. Life is chaos. It´s never easy. Always a struggle.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Las palabras resuenan en mi cabeza. Hermosas palabras que una
vez me dedicó a mí.
—Addy, eres mi sol, mi luna y mis estrellas. Eres mi cielo, mi
infierno y mi tierra. Iría a cualquier parte por ti. Te seguiré a cualquier
parte.
Y él está aquí.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Ahora hay dolor otra vez. El sedante no puede quitar este tipo de dolor. No importa cuantas drogas me den. Lo sé.
Nunca, ninguna cantidad de drogas podrá quitar el dolor que acompaña a un corazón roto.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Soy como un remolino en medio de un mar agitado, una vez que estás en mi camino no tengo elección, te agarraré de la pierna y te hundiré.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“—¿Addy? —Hay un tono ronco en su voz y cierro mis ojos con él. Juro que puedo ver la profundidad de su alma.
—¿Si?
—Quiero que sepas algo.
—Está bien.
Él ladea su cabeza, me da un suave beso en los labios.
—Solo quiero que sepas que eres mi sol, mi luna y mis estrellas. Mi cielo, mi infierno y mi tierra. Haría cualquier cosa por ti. Iría a cualquier sitio por ti. Si alguna vez me dejas, te seguiré.
—Nunca tendrás que seguirme porque nunca te voy a dejar.
El amor por él quema dentro de mí como una vela romana. Las llamas son vibrantes, ardientes, y el humo que despliega de la punta es sofocante. Y a pesar de que siento que no puedo respirar, si esta es la forma en que Damien me hace sentir, espero no volver a respirar.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“I just want you to know that you are my sun, my moon, and my stars. My heaven, my hell, and my earth. I’d do anything for you. I’d go anywhere for you. If you ever left me, I’d follow you.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Dos corazones latiendo.
Lado a lado.
Piel contra piel.
Y un intenso amor inquebrantable entre dos personas que nunca morirá.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Espero ese día.
Espero con ansias el día en que voy a estar sonriendo desde el Cielo, preguntándome lo que hizo a mi papá ser tan enfermo, retorcido y podrido. Espero con interés el día en que lo pueda perdonar por todo lo que ha hecho y verlo desde una nube en el cielo, rezando por su alma condenada, mientras que él está bañado en llamas, y quemándose en el infierno.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Él dice algo.
Seis palabras.
Seis palabras que parecen imposibles para ser ciertas.
Seis palabras que destilan esperanza dentro de mi alma.
Seis palabras.
—No estás loca. Te amo”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Por favor, Ojos azules.
Sálvame.
Sé mi príncipe azul.
Mi caballero con brillante armadura.
10
Rescátame de esta torre ardiente de depresión, tristeza y miseria.
No lo hace. No lo hará. No puede.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“He llegado a la desgarradora conclusión de que Damien es demasiado bueno para alguien como yo. Él es brillante, guapo e inteligente y va a tener una vida asombrosa, muy, muy lejos de aquí, y muy, muy lejos de mí.
Encontrará a una chica encantadora en la universidad. Se casarán. Tendrán una docena de hermosos bebés. Y serán la pareja envidiada que todo el mundo mira cuando imaginan como deben ser el amor y la felicidad. Serán la imagen de la perfección.
Damien se merece eso. Se merece toda la maravillosa e incandescente felicidad del mundo. Y hay una sensación de malestar, que gira alrededor de mi interior, que me hace saber que él nunca encontrará ese tipo de felicidad conmigo.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“There’s a part of me wishes that Daddy would sleep his life away. A part of me that hopes that after all these years his drinking will finally catch up to him. That one day he’ll just go to bed and never wake up. But who am I kidding with that dream? It’s the people like Daddy, the wicked ones who go on living forever. It’s like God puts people like Daddy on earth on purpose. Making them a test for the good people in the world. If you can withstand what the good Lord throws at you, by staying true to your goodhearted self, and persevering through all of the obstacles thrust before you, then you’ve earned a spot by his side in Heaven. I look forward to that day. I look forward to the day where I’ll be smiling down from Heaven, wondering what made my daddy become so sick, twisted, and rotten. I look forward to the day when I can forgive him for everything he’s done and watch him from a cloud up in Heaven, praying for his damned soul, while he’s doused in flames, and burning in hell.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Durante mucho tiempo me sentí como si estuviera vagando sin rumbo por la vida. La única cosa que podía esperar era mis paseos en la mañana y los sueños de salir por mi cuenta. Entonces Damien llegó.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Esto está
matándome. Tiene muchas cosas que hacer por delante y si se queda

conmigo, lo seguiré arrastrando hacia abajo. Soy como un remolino en
medio de un mar agitado, una vez que estás en mi camino no tengo
elección, te agarraré de la pierna y te hundiré.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“You’re not crazy. I love you.”
― Lauren Hammond, quote from Insanity
“Suddenly the thought that the end of her life was imminent shocked him; it was one thing to pity someone he didn't know, quite another to face the same dilemma with someone he knew intimately. That was the trouble with beds. They turned strangers into intimates more quickly than ten years of polite teas in parlours.”
― Colleen McCullough, quote from The Ladies of Missalonghi
“you must understand there is nothing noble in failing to discover and cultivate your pleasures. (It will make you not only fat, but grouchy.)”
― Mireille Guiliano, quote from French Women Don't Get Fat: The Secret of Eating for Pleasure
“His lips slid over her ear. "My mind shares yours. If you're determined to go through with this, then know whatever this takes you, you won't be alone, Tansy. I'm strong. I'll find your mind and I'll bring you back."
"Last time I broke into a million pieces."
"I'll find each one.”
― Christine Feehan, quote from Murder Game
“FOREST OF DOOM: This is usually the home of mobile and prehensile TREES. There will e giant SPIDERS too, and Dwellers near the centre who will want to SACRIFICE any stranger to their God. It is best to avoid the place if possible. But the Management usually insists on sending you there. An OLD RUINED CITY is sometimes situated in the heart of this Forest.

― Diana Wynne Jones, quote from The Tough Guide to Fantasyland
“they brought the Bible and syphilis, they made people believe that life was easy, mother, that everything is gotten with money, that blacks carry a contagion, they tried to convince our soldiers that the nation is a business and that the sense of honor is a brother invented by the government so that soldiers would fight for free”
― Gabriel García Márquez, quote from The Autumn of the Patriarch
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.
