“Why?” breathed Boy 412. “Why me?”
“You have astonishing Magykal power. I told you before. Maybe now you’ll believe me.” She smiled.
“I—I thought the power came from the ring.”
“No. It comes from you. Don’t forget, the Dragon Boat recognized you even without the ring. She knew. Remember, it was last worn by Hotep-Ra, the first ExtraOrdinary Wizard. It’s been waiting a long time to find someone like him.”
“But that’s because it’s been stuck in a secret tunnel for hundreds of years.”
“Not necessarily,” said Marcia mysteriously. “Things have a habit of working out, you know. Eventually.”
― Angie Sage, quote from Magyk

Nasty as a RAT
Put her in a pie dish
Give her to the CAT!”
― Angie Sage, quote from Magyk

― Angie Sage, quote from Magyk

“ I reached up and cupped the back of his neck and drew him down to me, and we kissed again. ”
― quote from Numbers
“He had also the reputation of being a bit of a lady killer. But that probably accrued to him from his possession of a laughing, velvety voice which no girl could hear without a heartbeat, and a dangerous way of listening as if she were saying something that he had longed all his life to hear.”
― L.M. Montgomery, quote from Rilla of Ingleside
“I will tell you something about stories, [he said] They aren’t just entertainment. Don’t be fooled. They are all we have, you see, all we have to fight off illness and death. You don’t have anything if you don’t have the stories. Their evil is mighty but it can’t stand up to our stories. So they try to destroy the stories let the stories be confused or forgotten. They would like that They would be happy Because we would be defenseless then. He”
― Leslie Marmon Silko, quote from Ceremony
“—Jesús, en forma intencional, se dejó caer en las manos del que lo traicionó, no se resistió al arresto, no se defendió en el juicio: resulta claro que estaba dispuesto a someterse a lo que usted describió como una forma de tortura humillante y agonizante. Y yo quisiera saber por qué. ¿Qué puede haber motivado a una persona a que acepte soportar ese tipo de castigo? Alexander Metherell, esta vez el hombre, no el doctor, buscó las palabras justas. —Francamente no creo que una persona común pudiera haberlo hecho —respondió por fin—. Sin embargo, Jesús sabía lo que le esperaba y estuvo dispuesto a padecerlo porque esa era la única forma de redimirnos: haciendo de sustituto nuestro y pagando la pena de muerte que merecemos por nuestra rebelión contra Dios. Esa fue toda su misión al venir a la tierra. Habiendo dicho eso, aun podía percibir que la mente de Mether-ell, racional, lógica y organizada sin tregua continuaba desmenuzando mi pregunta hasta llegar a la respuesta más básica e irreducible. —Por lo tanto, cuando usted me pregunta qué lo motivó —concluyó—, bien… supongo que la respuesta se puede resumir en una sola palabra; y esa sería amor.”
― Lee Strobel, quote from The Case for Christ
“I have an idea that some men are born out of their due place. Accident has cast them amid certain surroundings, but they have always a nostalgia for a home they know not. They are strangers in their birthplace, and the leafy lanes they have known from childhood or the populous streets in which they have played, remain but a place of passage. They may spend their whole lives aliens among their kindred and remain aloof among the only scenes they have ever known. Perhaps it is this sense of strangeness that sends men far and wide in the search for something permanent, to which they may attach themselves. Perhaps some deep-rooted atavism urges the wanderer back to lands which his ancestors left in the dim beginnings of history.”

The ScoreBookQuoters 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.
