“-Are you okay? he asked leaning slightly towards her.
-Don't I look okay?
-You look perfect as always. I asked how you felt.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Seven Minutes in Heaven
“We haven't officially met," she said softly. "I'm Charlotte Chamberlain. I'm very sorry for your loss."
...
"I'm so sorry, Char," she whispered...
"We're sorry we didn't give you a chance to explain," Madeline said.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Seven Minutes in Heaven
“I just realized... this makes you my niece, doesn't it?... This is all really crazy... but it's kind of cool that we're related. Biologically, I mean. You know you've always been my sister. But I'm glad we're related by blood, too. - Laurel, to Emma”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Seven Minutes in Heaven
“Good-bye, Nisha, I added my farewell to my sister's. I promise, whoever did this to us is going to pay.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Seven Minutes in Heaven

...
"Remember me," I said, knowing they would. And then, as fast as a shooting star, I was gone.”

“Ay, cómo trabajaban las chicas entonces; antes del amanecer ya estaban en pie, muertas de sueño, para disponer veinte o treinta fuegos. Barrer, fregar, limpiar y pulir se hacía sólo para volver a hacerlo. Lavar montañas de vajilla y cubertería, corretear escaleras arriba y abajo; y aquellas campanillas irascibles que empezaban a resonar como en una rabieta… Justo cuando lograbas sentarte un instante.”
― Laurie Lee, quote from Cider With Rosie
“There was the blue sky above her and all those many roses, the ones that gave off the scent of cloves in the rain and the ones that left a trace of lemon on your fingers, the ones that were the color of blood, and those that were as white as clouds. Each one was sweeter than the next and as red as gemstones.”
― Alice Hoffman, quote from The River King
“I don't believe in love at all, really. But lust ... is alive and well.”
― Lisa Desrochers, quote from Personal Demons
“That's the catch about betrayal, of course: that it feels good, that there's something immensely pleasurable about moving from a complicated relationship which involves minor atrocities on both sides to a nice, neat, simple one where one person has done something so horrible and unforgivable that the other person is immediately absolved of all the low-grade sins of sloth, envy, gluttony, avarice and I forget the other three.”
― Nora Ephron, quote from Heartburn
“Can you imagine a princess who works as a counter girl in a fast-food restaurant? I'm sure there's one somewhere. Imagine if all the people who came in to place orders were to realize that their meal was served by a princess! I don't think most people could handle it.'
'I think it would be hard for a real princess to have to do menial work like that,' Blanche reflected. 'She might think it was beneath her.'
'Oh, but a real princess would know that hard work ennobles the soul,' Rose objected. 'That would be one of the signs.”

Balzac and the Littl...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.
