“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.”
“For the time being—”He emphasized each word. “I’ll be the only one climbing through your window.”
“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.”
“Ryan stood over me. “What are you doing?”
“Dying.”
“Why do I have you in my bed, when I'm not allowed to touch you?”
“In panic, I held
his hand in place. “Move another inch, Hunter, and you’re a dead man.”
“For a minute there, I thought I stood a chance. But I guess in the end, Mitchell will still be the lucky one.”
“I kind of took you for granted. Your love for me was permanent. Why should I have worried about losing you?”
“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?”
“Plötzlich zuckte sein Mundwinkel. "Ich kann spüren, wie du mich beobachtest. Ich hoffe nur, du bist ein Mädchen und nicht einer der betrunkenen Jungs.”
“A renda transformou-se em Petersburgo matinal: lá estavam os prédios de cinco andares cor de areia; o palácio ruivo-avermelhado coloriu-se de aurora.”
“A friend helps you move; a real friend helps you move a body.”
“He snuggled closer, spooning into her back, both of them staring at nothing. Jack wondered what she was seeing. Krista”
“He began to have a dim feeling that, to attain his place in the world, he must be himself, and not another.”
“To become aware of our history is to become aware of our singularity.”
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.
