“I can feel you
staring at me,” he said in the softest wake-up voice I’d ever heard. “I only
hope you’re a girl and not one of the drunken guys.”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“For the time being—”He emphasized each word. “I’ll be the only one climbing through your window.”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“He can’t play
when someone is watching him,” Justin almost sang into my ear. “Totally screws
up then.”
“But you all
are watching him,” I pointed out.
At the back of
the room, someone laughed. “Yeah, but we’re not girls.”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“Ryan stood over me. “What are you doing?”
“Dying.”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“Why do I have you in my bed, when I'm not allowed to touch you?”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“In panic, I held
his hand in place. “Move another inch, Hunter, and you’re a dead man.”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“For a minute there, I thought I stood a chance. But I guess in the end, Mitchell will still be the lucky one.”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“I kind of took you for granted. Your love for me was permanent. Why should I have worried about losing you?”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“Suddenly his lips twitched. "I can feel you looking at me," he said in the softest wake up voice I'd ever heard. "I only hope you're a girl and not one of the drunken guys." My breath caught in my chest. I jerked my hand from him. Not taking his arm away from his face yet, he reached dowm with his other hand. And slowly ran his palm over my naked thigh in the direction of my bum. "Yep, definitely female," he purred. In panic, I held his hand in place. "Move another inch, Hunter, and you're a dead man."
"Matthews?”
― Piper Shelly, quote from Play With Me
“Plötzlich zuckte sein Mundwinkel. "Ich kann spüren, wie du mich beobachtest. Ich hoffe nur, du bist ein Mädchen und nicht einer der betrunkenen Jungs.”

“She stretched, pulling out her earbuds, which apparently in Lykae was code for 'Interogate me,' because the questions, they came a-calling.”

“I'm fucked in the head, too. Even before I met you.”

“Then we were at the fountain - we stop and look up at the many illuminated windows of number 2.
"This is as far as you can walk me," she says. "Thanks for taking me home."
I bowed, not daring to say a word. I doffed my hat and stood bareheaded. I wondered if she would give me her hand.
"Why don't you ask me to walk back with you part of the way?" She says playfully. But she looks down at the tip of her shoe.
"Gee," I answer, "if only you would!"
"Sure, but only a little way."
And we turned around.
I was utterly bewildered, I didn't know which way was up anymore; this person turned all my thinking topsy-turvy. I was enchanted, wonderfully glad; I felt as though I were dying from happiness. She had expressly wanted to go back with me, it wasn't my idea, it was her own wish. I gaze and gaze at her, growing more and more cocky, and she encourages me, drawing me toward her by every word she speaks. I forget for a moment my poverty, my humble self, my whole miserable existence, I feel the blood coursing warmly through my body as in the old days, before I broke down.”
― Knut Hamsun, quote from Hunger
“May we see the sun rise together, shade of my heart.”

RealBookQuoters 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.
