Quotes from Ms. Marvel, Vol. 1: No Normal

“There's this ayah from the Quran that my dad always quotes when he sees something bad on TV. A fire or a flood or a bombing. "Whoever kills one person, it is as if he has killed all of mankind... And whoever saves one person, it is as if he has saved all of mankind." When I was a little kid, that always made me feel better. Because no matter how bad things get there are always people who rush in to help. And according to my dad they are blessed.”
― G. Willow Wilson, quote from Ms. Marvel, Vol. 1: No Normal

“Good is not a thing you are. It's a thing you do.”
― G. Willow Wilson, quote from Ms. Marvel, Vol. 1: No Normal

“Who am I? It seems like an easy question. And then I realize... Maybe what I said to those cops wasn't a joke. Maybe the name belongs to whoever has the courage to fight.
And so I tell them.
I tell them who I am.”
― G. Willow Wilson, quote from Ms. Marvel, Vol. 1: No Normal

“We are faith. We speak all languages of beauty and hardship.”
― G. Willow Wilson, quote from Ms. Marvel, Vol. 1: No Normal

“Liberty is to faction what air is to fire...”
― Alexander Hamilton, quote from The Federalist Papers

“Stari Indijanac ispričao je jedne večeri unuku priču o večnoj borbi koja se odvija u ljudima.
Rekao je: "Sine, borba između dva vuka događa se u svima nama.
Jedan je zločest, u njemu prevladavaju gnev, zavist, ljubomora, pohlepa, oholost, samosažaljenje, ljutnja, inferiornost, laž, lažni ponos i egoizam.
Drugi je dobar i u njemu prevladavaju radost, mir, ljubav, nada, vedrina, poniznost, ljubaznost, ljubav, saosećanje, darežljivost, istina i vera."
Pita unuk: "Koji vuk pobeđuje?"
Indijanac odgovara: "Onaj kojeg bolje nahraniš.”
― Alexandra Potter, quote from Be Careful What You Wish For

“Love rips the shit out of you and puts you back together like a broken toy, with all kinds of cracks and jagged edges. It’s not about the falling in love. It’s about the landing,”
― Kristin Hannah, quote from Magic Hour

“The priest removed his glasses and pocketed them. «I'm sure you don't need to hear it, but a sponsor should never get too…involved with his client.»
Shit. Phil was careful to show no emotion, even though he was howling inside. Plan A had just gone down the tubes. So much for channeling Vanda's anger into a glorious eruption of lust. He'd have to resort to Plan B.
There was no Plan B. His thoughts had never progressed past the bedroom. The priest was right. He was an animal.”
― Kerrelyn Sparks, quote from Forbidden Nights with a Vampire

“Cause I don't think we ever really get over our childhood. It's always there, waiting.”
― Ted Dekker, quote from Skin

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.
