“There you go, belittling us again. You must know by now that I've never done any of this for anyone else. I was a slut once with my body, but I've never been a slut with my heart.”
“I don't feel alone with you. I feel like I have a family and a home again. You're my home. All of the dark shadows seem to disappear when we're together.”
“Meet my future. Her name is Bianca. Come to terms with it. My advice would be to get on her good side.”
“Careful, Love. You can't offer a starving man a feast and expect him not to take you up on it.”
“On a scale of one to ten, what was he?"
"How would, 'I want him to fuck me to death, and he just might', rate on that scale?”
“I want to deserve you, my love.”
“His soul was a mirror of my own.”
“I wondered how my heart could be both light with happiness and heavy with love at the same time.”
“Knowing and feeling were two very different things.”
“I never thought I'd have the urge to fuck someone to death.”
“You're more precious than my own life to me, Bianca.”
“You ready to leave now? I don’t find the idea of fucking you against that wall behind you even slightly unpleasant. Exhibitionism has never been a problem for me. Is that something you’d like to try?”
“I can’t change my past, Bianca. All I can do is be honest with you, and I’ve done my best.”
“There's no room in perfection for insecurity.”
“He had an angel's face, but his eyes were so hypnotically tarnished, a mirror of my own pain in their depths.”
“You are special. You're the most special person in the world to me.”
“You're my angel, Bianca. You've exorcised my demons. I don't have nightmares when I'm with you. I don't have to work seventy hour work weeks to keep my mind distracted. My life has become more than work and emotionless affairs. You make me a better man.”
“The things he made me feel had opened a floodgate, and the damned thing wouldn't close.”
“With him being so charming, and so perfect, so heart-achingly beautiful, but tarnished in all of the right places, and in all of the ways that I understood so well, how could I not love him?”
“I want to share my life with you, to be
monogamous with you, and my past is in the past. I wish there was some way I could prove it to you, once and for all. I do have a sordid past, but I’ve never lied to any of the women I’ve been with, and I’ve never promised to anyone the things I promise to you.”
“Now, now, Auntie, you had better play nice with my dearest Bianca. I have not invited her to live in one of my homes. I have welcomed her into all of them. And though I know it would break your heart if anything were to ever happen to me, you will be beholden to this angel to cover your living expenses when I pass away, as she will be my sole inheritor.”
“I felt him sigh against me. “It was. But it didn’t mean anything. Please don’t use her to keep me at a distance”…”
“It makes me feel special. I find that I love it. I find that I love everything you do to me.”
“This is ridiculous. I wouldn't ask that of you. I would be distraught if you even suggested it. You aren't just my sub, Bianca. This is much more than just a physical relationship. I feel utterly possessive of you. If someone touched you the way I touch you, male or female, I would lose my mind.”
“I'll do it. I said I would. And, though I can't deny I've never thought of doing something like that, it appeals to me simply because yo want it so badly. I can't seem to help myself. I want to please you. I love to please you.”
“It's been very clearly brought to my attention that I had overlooked your security in public restrooms.”
“I would have given anything to have him feel the way he looked at me when he was deep inside of me.”
“Don't foist your body image issues on me, mate. I'm sexy. When I want a six pack, I go to the liquor store.”
“I shot him an arch look over my shoulder. “Are you always hard?”
He gave a little shrug. “I can’t watch you straddle something and grind yourself against it and not get turned on. So sue me.” He gripped my h*ps tight, grinding against me from behind.”
“The ignorant man is an ox. He grows in size, not in wisdom.”
“He would conclude that nothing was real except chance.”
“It's one thing to predict [the complete breakdown of civilization]. It's something else again to be right in the middle of it. It's a very humbling thing...for an academic like me to find his abstract theories turning into concrete reality... It was all just so many words to me, really, just a philosophical exercise, completely abstract.”
“Само Локи стоеше отстрани и се смееше. Смехът му беше по-смъртоносен от меч или копие за самомнителните богове. Нямаше нищо чудно в това, че са го оковали.”
“Are you kidding? Aren’t you worried I’ll become that hung up on you?”
“I’m hoping you become that hung up on me.”
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.
