Quotes from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

“I'm a werewolf trapped in a human body."
"Well, yeah, that's kind of the definition."
"No, really. I'm trapped."
"Oh? When was the last time you shape-shifted?"
"That's just it - I've never shape-shifted."
"So you're not really a werewolf."
"Not yet. But I was meant to be one, I just know it. How do I get a werewolf to attack me?"
Stand in the middle of a forest under a full moon with a raw steak tied to your face, holding a sign that says, 'Eat me; I'm stupid'?”
― Carrie Vaughn, quote from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

No.'

― Carrie Vaughn, quote from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

“Next caller. Betty, you're on the air. What's your question ?"
"Hi, Kitty. I just wanted to know, are you going out with that Cormac guy from last month?"
My jaw dropped. "What?"
"Are you going out with that Cormac guy?"
"We are talking about the same Cormac who tried to kill me on the air, yes? the guy who hunts werewolves for a living ?"
"Uh-huh."
"And you want to know if I'm dating him ? Why on earth do you think that's a good idea?”
― Carrie Vaughn, quote from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

“I punched to line. "Yes? What?"
"Norville. It's Cormac. If you don't change the subject right now, I'm going to have to go over there and have a word with you.”
― Carrie Vaughn, quote from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

“...I'd killed my self-defense instructor. Shit.

I ran to where he lay and stumbled to a crouch at his side, touching his shoulder. "Craig?"

His eyelids fluttered. A few panicked heartbeats later, he opened them. Then he grinned.

"Yeah, that's what I'm talking about! You gotta learn to hit people." He was breathing hard. He had to gasp the words out. I'd probably knocked the wind out of him. "Now, never do that to me again."

-Kitty and her self defense teacher”
― Carrie Vaughn, quote from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

“Why vampires? You write centuries-long family sagas—why not write historical epics without any hint of the supernatural?"

― Carrie Vaughn, quote from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

“To be a DJ was to be God. To be a DJ at an alternative public radio station ? That was being God with a mission. It was thinking you were the first person to discover The Clash and you had to spread the word.”
― Carrie Vaughn, quote from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

“If vampires ever spend less time playing theatrics and living down to their stereotypes, they might actually take over the world someday”
― Carrie Vaughn, quote from Kitty and the Midnight Hour

― quote from Undeniable

“Viena, kas gera šioje aplinkoje, - kad visiškai išnyksta mirties baimė. Mirtis čionai gresia kiekviename žingsnyje. Čionai taip žmogus apsipranta su mirties perspektyva, kad ji darosi šiokiadienė šiukšlė. Mirtis nustoja savo kilnaus tragizmo elemento. Ji nustoja čionai ir savo lyrizmo.”
― Balys Sruoga, quote from Forest of the Gods

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.

Founded in 2023, BookQuoters has quickly become a large and vibrant community of people who share an affinity for books.
