Quotes from Mercury's War

“Damned mating heat. Lawe is threatening to join a monastery and Rule's threatening to quit. Why don't you two try to show the younger guys it can be fun instead of taking a note out of everyone else's books and letting it drive you insane?
-Jonas”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Mercury's War

“I say, when Mercury arrives, we just pretend we’re not here.” Lawe
tipped back his whiskey and swallowed in a single drink. “Stay real quiet.
Don’t make eye contact.”
They all nodded.”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Mercury's War

“I need you more than I need freedom.”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Mercury's War

“You are my mate, Ria. In my soul. You are my mate.
~ Mercury”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Mercury's War

“Ria snorted. “Leo’s pride rarely leaves the plains. What are they
supposed to mate? The zebras?”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Mercury's War

“I hate Breeds,” she muttered. “Do you know that? You and your sharp, damned noses. Just because I want to doesn’t mean I should. Hell, I want cheesecake but I know better. It goes right to my hips. Does that mean I have to eat it anyway?”
He stared back at her in disbelief. “You’re comparing me to cheesecake?” Offended male fury and outrage glittered in his eyes.
She huffed, “Well, the same principle applies.”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Mercury's War

“Tu eres mi Compañera, Ria, En Mi alma tu eres mi Compañera~Mercury”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Mercury's War

“Otro hombre toca lo que es mío y lo mato. Lo destrozaría, Ria. Cualquiera que se atreva a intentar hacerte daño, y la locura será la menor de mis debilidades. Me destruirá. Eres mía-Mercury”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Mercury's War

About the author

Popular quotes

“What we are dealing with here is another version of the Lacanian 'il n'y a pas de rapport ...': if, for Lacan, there is no sexual relationship, then, for Marxism proper, there is no relationship between economy and politics, no 'meta-language' enabling us to grasp the two levels from the same neutral standpoint, although—or, rather, because—these two levels are inextricably intertwined.”
― Slavoj Žižek, quote from The Parallax View

“The third board popped off. The opening was now big enough to squeeze through. The dogs in town were barking hysterically.”
― Douglas Preston, quote from The Codex

“Strangely fruitful intercourse this, between one body and another mind”
― Thomas Mann, quote from Death in Venice and Seven Other Stories

“She tries to wear her pain on the inside. She always has. It’s the trademark of the oldest sibling, I think.”
― Laura Miller, quote from My Butterfly

“I was looking forward to my visit to the library. I’ve always been a big reader and thought I might eventually volunteer as a Friend of the Library.”
― Debbie Macomber, quote from The Inn at Rose Harbor

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.
