Quotes from Kissing Under the Mistletoe

“I know you told me you'd wait for me, but I don't want either of us to wait anymore. Especially when I knew from the first moment I saw you that you were special. I feel like I've been running my whole life, speeding from small town into a big city, jumping from one place to the next for years until they all blurred together. And right when I decided it was time to finally stop running and set down some roots, there you were. My new beginning." Her eyes filled with tears as she smiled up at him and slid her arms around his neck to pull him closer. "My love."
Jack sank down onto the couch with Mary, her curves soft beneath his muscles. "I'll always be yours, Angel. Forever.”
― Bella Andre, quote from Kissing Under the Mistletoe

“Whoever it was that hurt you," he said in a low voice that rumbled through her, "was an idiot."
They were just inches apart as she agreed, "Yes, he was."
"Rumor has it," he said with a small smile that drew her in closer for the kiss she was trying not to give him, "that my IQ is quite high."
How could she possibly fight her feelings for him when he didn't just make her burn but made her laugh, too?
"Is that so?"
"One hundred sixty, and my mother still has the test results to prove it," he said with a grin.”
― Bella Andre, quote from Kissing Under the Mistletoe

“You look good scruffy."
"Now that I know you think that, I'll never shave again."
She laughed again. "Remind me to look you up in two years to see how long your beard is."
"All you'll have to do is roll over in our bed to see that.”
― Bella Andre, quote from Kissing Under the Mistletoe

“Demon?” Gwen gasped out. Her back jerked ramrod-straight, and her face leeched of
color. “Did you just say demon?”

Oh, uh…did I say that?” Strider once again glanced around the plane helplessly. “No, no.

― Lois McMaster Bujold, quote from Komarr

“- Радвай се, че не си майка в такива времена – отвърна му тя. – Защото, ако беше, щеше да се радваш, че двамата ти скарани синове отново ще се съберат, но едновременно с това щеше да се изпълниш със страх, че и двете ти деца вероятно ще са мъртви. Противоречието на това щастие и този ужас би ти се сторило непоносимо.
- Радвай се, че не си мъж – каза в отговор той. – Защото, щом престанем да спим, виждаме, че на този свят до нас има единствено врагове – врагове, които се преструват, че ни защитават, които стоят, направени от оръжия и облекла в цвят каки, и алчност, и смърт, а зад тях са враговете, които се преструват, че ни спасяват в името на собствения ни Бог, само че и те също са изтъкани от смърт и алчност, а пък зад тях са враговете, живеещи сред нас, носещи безбожни имена, които ни прелъстяват и после ни предават, врагове, за които смъртта е прекалено меко наказание, а още по-отзад са враговете, които никога не виждаме, те дърпат конците на живота ни. Този последен враг, невидимият враг в невидимата стая в чуждата страна, някъде много далеч: пред него искам да се изправя, и ако се наложи да си проправя пътя през всички останали, за да се добера до него, тогава така и ще сторя.”
― Salman Rushdie, quote from Shalimar the Clown

“If we as Christians do not speak out as authoritarian governments grow from within or come from outside, eventually we or our children will be the enemy of society and the state. No truly authoritarian government can tolerate those who have real absolute by which to judge its arbitrary absolutes and who speak out and act upon that absolute.”
― Francis A. Schaeffer, quote from How Should We Then Live? The Rise and Decline of Western Thought and Culture

“A true lady should have the wit and the imagination, or at least the very restraint, to express herself without resorting herself to such base vocabulary.”
― quote from Thief's Covenant

About BookQuoters

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.
