“It was starting to feel like a hair pulling, bitch slapping kind of fight.”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“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.”
― Trina M. Lee, quote from Once Bitten
“Out of the warlike peoples arose civilization, while the peaceful collectors and hunters were driven to the ends of the earth, where they are gradually being exterminated or absorbed, with only the dubious satisfaction of observing the nations which had wielded war so effectively to destroy them and to become great, now victimized by their own instrument.”
― Edward O. Wilson, quote from On Human Nature
“It’s Your Choice, NOT Your Upbringing That Creates Your Reality….”
― Dain Heer, quote from Being You, Changing the World
“Not only has volume been ratcheted up but expectations have, too. Quiet success--painting a picture, writing a poem, writing an algorithm--is all well and good, but if you haven't become famous doing it, then did it really matter?”
― Sophia Dembling, quote from The Introvert's Way: Living a Quiet Life in a Noisy World
“It's funny. Friendships are Catch twenty-twos when you're single and in your thirties. Friends are your life rafts. You try to help each other meet people, you confide in each other, you spend Thanksgiving, Valentine's Day, all those emotional land-mine holidays together. But sooner or later one of you is going to meet someone and be gone into the world of couples.”
― Will McIntosh, quote from Love Minus Eighty
“That's the thing about music. You get to make it mean whatever you need it to mean.”
― Jessica Park, quote from Flat-Out Celeste
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.
