“Oh God, I just kissed a vampire!"
Oh Gods, I just kissed a human!”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures

A wooden stake through the heart will kill just about anything. And if it doesn't, run like hell. (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“WHAT ARE YOU, NUTS? THE MAN'S A VAMPIRE!
Yeah, but he's a really, REALLY sexy one.”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“What are you doing? (Amanda)
I'm getting into my car. (Kyrian)
You own this?! (Amanda)
No. I'm stealing it with the key in my hand. (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“And speaking of scary things, I need to leave. My guides are fading even as we speak. (Talon)
I hate when you commune with the dead in front of me. (Kyrian)
Are you the asshole who sent the 'I See Dead People' T-shirt to me? (Talon)
That would be Wulf. (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“I haven't fought with anyone else in over two thousand years. (Kyrian)
Well, you're never too old to learn. (Amanda)
You can't teach an old dog new tricks. (Kyrian)
There's no time like the present. (Amanda)
Time is of the essence. (Kyrian)
God helps those who help themselves. (Amanda)
You're not going to let me win this, are you? (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“Gee, thanks Dad. I promise to be a good boy and play nice with the other kids.(Kyrian)
Smart ass.(Julian)
Better than a dumb ass.(Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures

― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“Hey, yummy leather guy? Can you hear me? (Amanda)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“What is a Dark-Hunter? Is it like the Vampire Slayer? (Amanda)

― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“My God. Is there some unwritten law that you guys have to be giants? (Amanda)

― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“Don't you have class today? (Kyrian)
Boy, I'm a backwoods Cajun, I ain't never got no class, cher. (Nick)
(He cleared his throat and dropped the thick Cajun accent.)
And no, today's registration. I've got to figure out what I'm taking next semester. (Nick)
I have a few things I need you to do today. (Kyrian)
And that is different from any other day how? (Nick)
Sarcasm, thy name is Nick Gautier. (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures

― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“I've called in the oracles and they were communing with the Fates. But you know how they are. I'm sure it'll come back as 'When the sky is green,m and the earth turns black, the Daimons will give you lots of flack. To kill the great awful one you seek, you'll have to find something unique.' Or some bullshit like that. I really hate Oracles. If I wanted to play mind games, I'd buy a Rubik's Cube. (Acheron)
I don't know, Ash, you're pretty good at that. Sure you don't want to take up an Oracle position? (Kyrian)
Picture this, General, my middle finger is extended all the way up, and aimed right at you. Now let me work. I have Daimons to track, Dark-Hunters to antagonize, and women to seduce. (Acheron)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“Knock, knock. (Desiderius)
Now, ain't this a bitch. Here I am, trying to kiss my girl, and you have to interrupt us. What, were you raised in a barn? By the way, touch the woman, or the Lamborghini, and you're a dead man. (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“You like being vague, don't you? (Amanda)
It was a choice of being a Dark-Hunter or a prophet. Personally I like the slash-and-kill stuff much more than prayers and the lotus position. (Acheron)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“You actually enjoyed that, didn't you? (Amanda)
Oh, hell yes! Did you see the look on their faces? Man, I love this car. (Kyrian)
(She looked up at the sky and implored divine aid.)
Dear God, please separate me from this maniac before I die of fright. (Amanda) ”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“The man may not be dead, but he was certainly stiff. And this had nothing to do with rigor mortis.”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“So you're the infamous Acheron. (Amanda)
Lord and Master of the great barbarian horde that roams the night. (Acheron)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“Should I ask about the handcuffs? (Tate)
Not unless you want to live...otherwise if anyone asks, tell them I died of a heart attack during a wild sexcapade with her. (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“The only clothes Amanda has are the ones on her back. (Kyrian)
From what I saw, she had no clothes whatsoever on her back. Her front neither. (Nick)
One day, Gaitor bait... (Kyrian)
Note to self- be nice to woman, keep mouth shut. (Nick)”

― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“I say we should stake him to an anthill and throw little pickles at him! (Selena)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“We got latched together and I was hoping you could separate us? (Amanda)
They were made by your stepfather. Any chance you have a key lying around? (Kyrian)
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. At least this time she's not an Amazon princess with an irate mother demanding parts of your body be removed. Two thousand years later, and you're still getting into unbelievable messes. (Julian) ”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“It's not your fault. You had no way of knowing I'd traded my soul. It's not exactly how I start out conversations. Hi, I'm Kyrian. I have no soul. What about you? (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“You know, I really hate Romans, but I have to say their descendants make one fine automobile. (Kyrian)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“God forbid I should bleed to death, eh? Then you'd have to cart around my rotting corpse. (Kyrian)
Could you be any more morbid? Jeez, who was your idol growing up? Boris Karloff? (Amanda)
Hannibal, actually. (Kyrian)
You're trying to scare me, aren't you? Well, it won't work. I grew up in a house with an angry poltergeist and two sisters who used to conjure demons just to fight them. Buster, I've seen it all and your gallows humor isn't working on me. (Amanda)”
― Sherrilyn Kenyon, quote from Night Pleasures
“Lights! Lights would be very good right now! (Amanda)
Since they hurt my eyes to the point I can barely see, no they wouldn't. Trust me. (Kyrian)
Trust you, my left foot! I'm not immortal over here! (Amanda)
Yeah, well, in a bad enough car wreck, neither am I. (Kyrian)
I really hate your sense of humor. (Amanda)”

“At first when the Paladin heard us tell about the glories of the Royal Audience he was broken-hearted because he was not taken with us to it; next, his talk was full of what he would have done if he had been there; and within two days he was telling what he did do when he was there.”
― Mark Twain, quote from Joan of Arc
“I was hurting, too. How could she have done such a terrible thing? She was my friend. She treated me like a confidant, and she protected me like a big sister. I loved Tally, and now she had run off with a vicious killer.”
― John Grisham, quote from A Painted House
“After that, we had a short conversation about how your body can sometimes seem totally separate. She said her body can feel like a distant bureaucracy controlled by telegrams from her brain, and I said my body is sometimes like that of Mario Mario, being controlled with a Nintendo joypad. Mario's surname is Mario.”
― Joe Dunthorne, quote from Submarine
“Abuse? Ah. Such problems, even with time, do not go away on their own. They must be addressed.”
― Nikki Sex, quote from Abuse
“...And yet a knowledge
is here that tenses the throat
as for song: the inheritance
of the ones, alive or once
alive, who stand behind
the ones I have imagined,
who took into their minds
the troubles of this place,
blights of love and race,
but saw a good fate here
and willingly paid its cost,
kept it the best they could,
thought of its good,
and mourned the good they lost.
(From the ending of Where in Clearing, p179)”

La Obra Maestra Desc...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.
