“I wont take no for an answer. I will use this to bind you to my bed until you change your mind if you dont answer the way I want you to. Will you marry me?"
She grinned. "I dont know." Her attention fixed on the tie for a few seconds before she met his gaze again. "I might be tempted to say no just to get you to tie me to your bed.”
― Laurann Dohner, quote from Justice
“He hesitated. “We’ve been told we’re larger than typical males.”
Larger. She swallowed. “I can deal with that. Larger as in ‘just a bit bigger’ or as in ‘that is never, ever going to fit inside me’?”
― Laurann Dohner, quote from Justice
“I admit to the jealousy. If you ever allow someone else to touch you, I will kill him, Jessie. I will tear him apart. Do you understand me?”
― Laurann Dohner, quote from Justice
“Let me tell you how it’s going to be, Justice. You don’t tell me who I can and can’t have inside my house. I work for the NSO but my personal life is my own. You lost the right to give me your opinion,” she stressed that last word, “about what I do or don’t do the second you decided you didn’t want to see me anymore. You don’t want me so don’t you dare tell me I can’t spend time with other men.”
― Laurann Dohner, quote from Justice
“I’m going to claim her so there’s nothing to protect her from. I’ll make her mine, fill her with my seed and it will plant there. She’ll make an excellent mate and mother to my young.”
-Brawn”
― Laurann Dohner, quote from Justice
“I’m going to claim her by the end of the night.” He flashed his fangs. “I’ll take her home, mount her, fuck her until she screams my name and keep doing it until she swells with what’s mine.”
-Brawn”
― Laurann Dohner, quote from Justice
“keep it on the down-low.” “The what?” “It’s a term I’ve learned from a human. It means keep it secret. It’s no one’s business and therefore they can’t start any trouble if they disagree with the relationship. The male said he did that with an undesirable female.” His face grew solemn. “He laughed when I commented that her looks should be irrelevant if she made him happy. I wasn’t sure how to take that but I think he cares too much for appearances. The term is the same though. It means being with someone and no one knows.” Justice stood. “I don’t like that term. Anyone who would dismiss a person because of how they look isn’t someone intelligent enough to learn from.” “You going home?” Tiger glanced”

“Soundings must be made at all three mounds. We make a start with Tell Mozan. There is a village there, and with Hamoudi as ambassador we try and obtain workmen. The men are doubtful and suspicious.
"We do not need money," they say. "It has been a good harvest."
For this is a simple, and, I think, consequently a happy part of the world. Food is the only consideration. If the harvest is good, you are rich. For the rest of the year there is leisure and plenty, until the time comes to plough and sow once more.
"A little extra money," says Hamoudi, like the serpent of Eden, "is always welcome."
They answer simply: "But what can we buy with it? We have enough food until the harvest comes again."
And here, alas! the eternal Eve plays her part. Astute Hamoudi baits his hook. They can buy ornaments for their wives.
The wives nod their heads. This digging, they say, is a good thing!
Reluctantly the men consider the idea. ...”

“Speaking of shabby looks, we're going to have to give you a haircut soon.
...WHAT?
These feathers are getting messy.
LET ME UNDERSTAND THIS CORRECTLY. YOU WISH TO CUT MY MANE?
Thunder tigers grow manes?
OF COURSE! HOW ELSE WOULD YOU TELL MALES FROM FEMALES?
This is a trick question, right?
A MANE IS A SIGN A MALE ARASHITORA HAS REACHED MATURITY.
Her laughter rang out in his mind.
So it's going to be a few more decades growing, then?
HMPH. I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW MOST FEMALES FIND IT FETCHING.”
― Jay Kristoff, quote from Endsinger
“Christianity is a gateway into God. And then when you get into God, “with Christ in God,” then you’re on a journey into infinity, into infinitude. There is no limit and no place to stop. There isn’t just one work of grace, or a second work or a third work, and then that’s it. There are numberless experiences and spiritual epochs and crises that can take place in your life while you are journeying out into the heart of God in Christ. God is infinite! That’s the hardest thought I will ask you to grasp.”
― A.W. Tozer, quote from The Attributes of God: A Journey Into the Father's Heart
“Bir dakika bekle, " dedi Naturelle. Mutfağa gidince Monty de gözleri kapalı bir halde, ağırlığını bir ayağından diğerine aktararak beklemeye koyuldu. Mutfaktaki musluktan sanki uzaklardan bir yerlerden bir alkış sesi geliyormuşçasına su damlıyordu. Naturelle elinde bir torba dolusu buzla gelip, torbayı Monty'nin yanağına bastırmasını işaret etti. Bir süre hiç kıpırdamadılar. Naturelle elini Monty'ninkinin üzerine koyup, bir süre bekledi.
Monty kadının kendisine sımsıkı sarılmasını, kulağına kimsenin kendilerini bulamayacağı bir yer bildiğini fısıldamasını diliyordu. Ona arkasından geleceğine, Otisville' de bir iş bulup her hafta onu ziyaret edeceğine söz vermesini istiyordu. Yedi senenin kötü bir rüya gibi geçeceğini sonra yeniden birbirlerine kavuşacaklarını, önlerinde daha upuzun bir ömür olduğunu, filan söylemesini bekliyordu.
Naturelle hiçbir şey söylemedi Monty de öyle. Sonunda Monty baş sallayıp, dönerek kapıyı arkasından kapattı. Poşeti ters çevirip içindeki buzların üç kat aşağı düşüşünü izledi. Sonra poşeti cebine koydu.”

Ink and BoneBookQuoters 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.
