“It was starting to feel like a hair pulling, bitch slapping kind of fight.”

“It was starting to feel like a hair pulling, bitch slapping kind of fight. I needed to take it to the next level.”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“I might be five foot one and counting, but that doesn't mean shit when it comes to what really makes you tough.”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“Fucking bitch! I’m not going to beg.” “Good. It’s probably better if you don’t go out like a pussy.”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“You reek of lust,” Arys commented. The fresh energy rolled off him and tantalized my senses. “What have you been doing in here without me?”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“Piercings in his ears, nose and lip revealed his edgy nature. He was casual in faded blue jeans and a black t-shirt that hugged his well-muscled chest in all of the right places. His eyes were a deep, drowning blue. His hair was slightly spiky and bedroom messy with just a hint of the early Elvis style. To say that I found him attractive would be putting it lightly. He was absolutely gorgeous.”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“To be a wolf wasn’t hard. No, the hard part was to go back to being human afterward. In a world of noise, pollution and selfishness, I enjoyed the relief, the escape to something pure, natural and free.”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“As a creature with a dual nature, to deny one risked the other. Several shifters had chosen one side, human or wolf. Most of them had driven themselves into madness. The balance in-between was often hard to find, but it was always worth it.”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“one thing about crazy people, Raoul, sometimes they don’t want to come back. The brink of insanity suits them just fine.”

“By 1948 I was safe on my feet and able to get about quite normally, but I was thirty-four and life was slipping past me. I could not face burial alive in Coombargana at that age after all that I had been and done during the war, and I began to feel I should go crazy if I didn’t get away from it to England again, where things were happening. I think my parents understood, because they made no objection when I suggested that I should go back to Oxford for a year and finish taking my degree. That was five years ago. What I didn’t realise then was that it wasn’t England I was really fretting for. It was my lost youth.”
― Nevil Shute, quote from Requiem for a Wren
“We did it!" I said, feeling limp with relief. "It actually worked!"
Dr. Turgenev rubbed his forehead. "I had very big doubts."
"Big doubts?" I said weakly.
The Russian scientist shrugged. "I am pessimist," he said.”
― Kenneth Oppel, quote from Starclimber
“Teku ljudi po ulicama, miču se lica u povorkama, lica naprahana, blijeda, klaunska, sa zarezima gorućeg karmina oko usana, kratkovidne maske žena u crnini, lica grbavaca, donje čeljusti, voštani dugi prsti sa crnim, modrikastim noktima, sve prilično ružno. Gadna lica, zvjerske njuške, žigosane bludom i porocima, zlobom i brigama, lica smolava i ugrijana, glave mrkvaste, gubice crnačke, zubala tvrda, oštra, mesožderska, a sve je sivo kao fotografski negativ.”
― Miroslav Krleža, quote from The Return of Philip Latinowicz
“a sermon was meant to be like a woman’s skirt, long enough to cover the essentials and short enough to keep one interested!”

“If one of her officers needed reprimanding, she would attend to it in private, just as she made it a point to deliver praise in public.”

Works of P. G. Wodeh...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.
