“-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

― Sara Shepard, quote from Seven Minutes in Heaven
“And I know something you don't know... I know where your twin sister is. Emma. I've been watching her for weeks. I found her for you, Sutton. - Ethan”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Seven Minutes in Heaven
“Her sister - shimmering and translucent in the moonlight - was next to her, standing fiercely over Ethan with her fists balled up. And then, just as quickly, she was gone.”
― Sara Shepard, quote from Seven Minutes in Heaven
“You're right. We Mercer girls are alike... We're bitches you don't want to mess with. - Laurel, to Ethan”
― 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.”

“On the whole I’m glad; you can’t mourn for unborn grandchildren when there never was a hope of them. This planet is doomed anyway. Eventually the sun will explode or cool and one small insignificant particle of the universe will disappear with only a tremble. If man is doomed to perish, then universal infertility is as painless a way as any. And there are, after all, personal compensations. For the last sixty years we have sycophantically pandered to the most ignorant, the most criminal and the most selfish section of society. Now, for the rest of our lives, we’re going to be spared the intrusive barbarism of the young, their noise, their pounding, repetitive, computer-produced so-called music, their violence, their egotism disguised as idealism. My God, we might even succeed in getting rid of Christmas, that annual celebration of parental guilt and juvenile greed. I intend that my life shall be comfortable, and, when it no longer is, then I shall wash down my final pill with a bottle of claret.”
― P.D. James, quote from The Children of Men
“The door was locked. The control had been buggered. Miles ripped it apart, shorted it out, and heaved the door open manually, nearly snapping his splayed fingers. She lay in a tumbled heap, too pale and still. Miles fell to his knees beside her. Throat pulse, throat pulse—there was one. Her skin was warm, her chest rose and fell. Stunned, only stunned. Only stunned. He looked up at a blurred Ivan hovering anxiously, swallowed, and steadied his ragged breathing. It had, after all, been the most logical possibility.”
― Lois McMaster Bujold, quote from Brothers in Arms
“So, Mr. Shane, you felt you had the right to come down here and bespoil my crime scene because …” He raised his eyebrows, waiting for an answer. “I thought he might need assistance,” Shane lied. “And the untoward angle of his neck did not tell you that he was beyond any earthly assistance you might render?” “I’m not a doctor, sir,” Shane said. “Neither are you a miracle worker, son,” Xavier said. “Should you find any other bodies in my jurisdiction, you will refrain from attempting to raise them from the dead.”
― Jennifer Crusie, quote from Agnes and the Hitman
“They forgot who she was:
Something fantastic we could never explain. Someone better and bolder than every one of us. Someone to paint murals and build bridges for. Someone worth every ounce of our love.
Someone powerful, but in the end not powerful enough.”
― Nova Ren Suma, quote from Imaginary Girls
“And she doesn't understand why he doesn't want to put out his medal like a trophy. And he can't tell her that he liberated Europe with a spade.”

FrigidBookQuoters 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.
