“You do anything for the person you love,” she said finally. "And then when you don’t think you can give any more of yourself, you do. You keep going. Because it would kill you not to.”
“I've fallen in love with you," he whispered to kiss the top of my hand.”
“I loved every part of him. The smell of his skin, the scar on his cheek, the feel of his fingers pressing into my back. The way he could tell what I was thinking just by looking at me.”
“We stood side by side, and for that minute, in the stillness of that room, he was not the King. I was not not the Princess, taken against her will to the City. We were two people trying to forget.”
“There are millions of stars, each one shining and burning out at the same time. They die like everything else - you have to appreciate them before they're gone”
“Memories can ruin you if you let them.”
“The only two people who can understand a relationship are the two people in it,”
“Existen millones de estrellas, pero cada una de ellas brilla y se consume a la vez; mueren como todo..., de modo que hay que apreciarlas antes de que se esfumen.”
“Las únicas personas que comprenden una relación son las que la mantienen.”
“Hacemos todo cuanto podemos por la persona a la que amamos. Y cuando crees que ya no puedes dar nada más de ti misma, vas y haces algo más, porque negarte a ello te mataría.”
“The Amoeba?" she asked Aiden.
"The gang," he said, tossing his hand to indicate all around. "My
people. A large amorphous mass that keeps on changing size, hasn't
much apparent use, sometimes makes you sick, and occasionally breaks
off into smaller parts that act exactly like the parent.”
“Nonsense," said the witcher. "And what's more, it doesn't rhyme. All decent predictions rhyme.”
“You're awfully dark, brother," he said. "You don't know how dark.”
“angels are beautiful,” I said finally. “And they’re still deadly.” “You’re really not getting this,” said Alex. He touched my face. “Yes, all angels are beautiful, but that’s just how they look. Your angel is you; she’s a part of you. And that means she’s . . . everything I love.”
“It is pointless to believe what you see, if you only see what you believe.”
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.
