“Perhaps because when everyone they knew and loved continued to die, they realized the value of distance, of not losing one's self completely to love.”
― Caroline Hanson, quote from Love Is Mortal
“How come she couldn't have a nice supernatural life like the girls on Charmed or even Buffy? They all had friends. Even on Supernatural, the boys had each other. What did she have? Nothing, but one damed traitor after another.”
― Caroline Hanson, quote from Love Is Mortal
“You owe me."
"What do I owe you? All the things I gave you. How I took care of you. Money, information...pleasure. I denied you nothing. If I could give it to you, I did."
"You gave me things that cost you nothing. It certainly didn't seem to be a hardship to fuck me.”
― Caroline Hanson, quote from Love Is Mortal
“I'm so..." Heartsick. You took my insides and left me a little broken. ”
― Caroline Hanson, quote from Love Is Mortal
“You keep seeking to redeem me. You keep looking and hoping. Painting me in emotions I do not have, nor can have.”
― Caroline Hanson, quote from Love Is Mortal
“Because I feel as if I've known you my entire life. I feel as if there are unfinished things between us.”
― Caroline Hanson, quote from Love Is Mortal
“Cer sighed. “The bravado of you, Lucaius,” he said, like a father disappointed in his son. “This
time will be different because you are in my land, at my mercy, and stripped of all defenses.”
“You will make me blush.”
― Caroline Hanson, quote from Love Is Mortal
“In regard to leaving, your options are
limited. Dismemberment is one, but I have a hard time imagining you hacking Cerdewellyn into
pieces, even if you had the strength. Bone is…difficult.”
She ran her hands through her hair, feeling nervous. Yeah, that’s what’s keeping me from
dismembering him, pulling a muscle as I cut through bone.”

“This is not just primitive rural superstition; [juju] is practiced by all kinds of people, from illiterate herd boys to multi-dregreed university professors. If you don't understand the power of this belief, you will never truly grasp the rich albeit often incomprehensible spirituality of Africa.”

The Ocean at the End...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.
