“See what love does? It makes you weak. Kills you."
Warm breath feathered over her scalp as Remy pressed a gentle kiss to the top of her head. "It also gives people something to live for," he whispered.”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“What got up your ass?"-Haley

“You play dirty, Haley." he breathed. "But this is my show."
"I can take care of myself"
"Not like I can."
"Do you want me to stop?"
"No."
"Then say it. Say it's my show."
~Remy/Haley”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“I don't know what you want, Haley. Just because you got me off doesn't mean I have to engage in post-fuck chat. So back off.”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“Coming sounds like a good idea, Haley," he murmured in her ear.
"Are you going to come for me, with me, again and again, until you can't stand it anymore, until you can't see straight?"
"Is that what you want?" she asked.
"Not want. Need." He gripped her hips and urged her down to her knees.
"Need to fuck you, right here. Need to be inside you now."
~Remy/Haley”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“Me", he murmured, his voice vibrating through her like some sort of secret trigger, because suddenly, she was coming, and he was saying, "Only me, bebe, only me."
~Remy/Haley”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“He licked his lips, so full and kissable, and his eyes darkened dangerously.
"But you do make a lot of noise in the shower. You're a screamer."
~Creed”

“I told you the storm's not over."
~Remy”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“Storms make you--"
"Want to fuck."
"they make me want to fuck until I pass out. Is that what you wanted to know?"
"Yes," she whispered...
~Remy/Haley”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“This is what you wanted, bebe."
He took her bottom lip between his teeth and let his hot tongue rasp slowly over it before releasing her.
"You wanted me to make love to your mouth. Imagine me doing this between your legs."
~Remy”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“He sank to his knees.
"I don't know how to handle this. I don't know what you want from me. Quoi tu veux," he murmured, over and over, until the whirring noise slowed and his fingers curled deep into the mud.
~Remy”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“It wasn't right. Evil should look evil. It should reek like rotten flesh, not smell like pine cleaner and fabric softener”
― quote from Riding the Storm
“I know how lucky I am to have had such wonderful first and second acts in my career. I'm still not sure what my third act will turn out to be (Sexy Baking Competition Hostess? Flamboyant Peruvian Bingo Caller?), but if you happen to run into Betty White, tell her thank you.
I'd like to be her one day.”
― Lauren Graham, quote from Talking as Fast as I Can: From Gilmore Girls to Gilmore Girls, and Everything in Between
“El mito es reflejo de la realidad”.”
― Alejo Carpentier, quote from The Lost Steps
“We tend to have a wrong view of law and to think of it as something that is opposed to grace. But it is not. Law is only opposed to grace in the sense that there was once a covenant of law, and we are now under the covenant of grace.”
― D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, quote from Studies in the Sermon on the Mount
“Harmony in the world within means the ability to control our thoughts, and to determine for ourselves how any experience is to affect us.”
― Charles F. Haanel, quote from The Master Key System
“With the gun which was too big for him, the breech-loader which did not even belong to him but to Major de Spain and which he had fired only once, at a stump on the first day to learn the recoil and how to reload it with the paper shells, he stood against a big gum tree beside a little bayou whose black still water crept without motion out of a cane-brake, across a small clearing and into the cane again, where, invisible, a bird, the big woodpecker called Lord-to-God by negroes, clattered at a dead trunk. It was a stand like any other stand, dissimilar only in incidentals to the one where he had stood each morning for two weeks; a territory new to him yet no less familiar than that other one which after two weeks he had come to believe he knew a little--the same solitude, the same loneliness through which frail and timorous man had merely passed without altering it, leaving no mark nor scar, which looked exactly as it must have looked when the first ancestor of Sam fathers' Chickasaw predecessors crept into it and looked about him, club or stone axe or bone arrow drawn and ready, different only because, squatting at the edge of the kitchen, he had smelled the dogs huddled and cringing beneath it and saw the raked ear and side of the bitch that, as Sam had said, had to be brave once in order to keep on calling herself a dog, and saw yesterday in the earth beside the gutted log, the print of the living foot. He heard no dogs at all. He never did certainly hear them. He only heard the drumming of the woodpecker stop short off, and knew that the bear was looking at him. he did not move, holding the useless gun which he knew now he would never fire at it, now or ever, tasting in his saliva that taint of brass which he had smelled in the huddled dogs when he peered under the kitchen.”
― William Faulkner, quote from Go Down, Moses
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.
