“If I was really a bitch I’d make your life a living hell. Instead, I’ll just stand by and watch you do that yourself. You seem to do a pretty good job at it.”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“He seems like a good guy but you need to find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot and who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Who wants to show off how pretty you look even in sweats...Who thinks you’re just as pretty without make-up and reminds you how lucky he is to have you. The one that says ‘that’s her.”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“A girl can dream can’t she? My new life plan is to stumble into every office of a CEO until I find a Christian Grey.”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“Worse day ever!" I whined to Ellie.
"Oh, worse than the time you got pulled over and the cop said 'papers' and you said 'scissors, I win' and he didn't laugh?”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“Who lit the fuse on your tampon?”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“Abracadabra... nope you're still a bitch.”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“Why do people say to grow a pair of balls? Balls are weak and sensitive. They should say grow a vagina, those things can take a pounding.”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“Listen Noah, I've had two helpings of flaming bitch this morning. Satan himself wouldn't fuck with me right now...”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“I'll always catch you baby. Always...”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“We’re all ok, until the day we’re not.”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“Marriage is more than joining the bonds of two people. It’s the uniting of two souls already attuned to each other.”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“I’d lose everything I have if it meant that I could have a second chance with Jules.”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“What makes life worth living is knowing that one day you’ll wake up and find the person that makes you happier than anything in the whole world. So don’t ever lose hope and give up, everything turns out okay and the good guy always wins. I’m a firm believer in second chances, and if we’re going to go through life not giving anyone a second chance, what kind of life are we going to have?”
― Sophie Monroe, quote from Second Chance Romance
“This is my wish for you. Comfort on difficult days, smiles when sadness intrudes, rainbows to chase the clouds away, laughter to kiss your lips, sunsets to warm your heart, hugs when spirits sag, beauty for your eyes to see, friendships to brighten your being, faith so that you can believe, confidence for you when you doubt, courage to know yourself, patience to accept the truth and love to complete your life. I love you, baby boy.”

“As I have put it before, if the second dinosaur to the left of the tall cycad tree had not happened to sneeze and thereby fail to catch the tiny, shrew-like ancestor of all the mammals, we would none of us be here. We all can regard ourselves as exquisitely improbable. But here, in a triumph of hindsight, we are.”
― Richard Dawkins, quote from An Appetite for Wonder: The Making of a Scientist
“Haska—a dim legendary figure of a generation ago, who went back up the mountain and cleared six acres of brush in the tiny valley that took his name. He broke the soil, reared stone walls and a house, and planted apple trees. And already the site of the house is undiscoverable, the location of the stone walls may be deduced from the configuration of the landscape, and I am renewing the battle, putting in angora goats to browse away the brush that has overrun Haska's clearing and choked Haska's apple trees to death. So I, too, scratch the land with my brief endeavour and flash my name across a page of legal script ere I pass and the page grows musty.”
― Jack London, quote from John Barleycorn: Alcoholic Memoirs
“He lived in a dreamer's world of ivory keys and messy shirts, unconcerned with the people around him.”

“The hostage hours had blurred into one another, anonymous as a line of smashed pumpkins.”

“My father's hand found the door locked. His calls to my mother went unanswered. He beat with his fists and called out her name, again and again, tears burning from his eyes. By the time I had come in the front door, the cake in my arms, he had broken his way in and discovered she was dead.”

EumeswilBookQuoters 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.
