“Your heart .That’s all I want. That’s the best thing you can give me”
You stole that that before we even met”
I don’t want to be a thief. I want you to give it”
His arms tighten around me, and his mouth presses on mine again.
It’s yours Beth”. His words flow into my soul and twist me into knots.
You know it’s yours”
“You’re the only one I kiss goodnight.”

“The way you kiss, the way you sing. The way you tell me everything. Will you take my heart? i´m offering it to you...”
“And now—our love is so true, I won’t take a step without you. Thank God, you came. If you love me, please don’t ever let me go.”
“He looks like an angel, sings like an angel. He found my breaking heart and coaxed it into a new rhythm.”

“I see his longing and frustration. “It hurts too much.” His face contorts.
“Everything we won’t have.”
“Don’t I deserve something? Somebody to be my best friend. To know me
inside and out and still like me. Everybody else has someone who loves them. All I’m asking for is
this nice boy to keep being my friend.”

me.”

Beth.”
“I wish you’d let me rescue you again.”
“It doesn’t matter.” His arms tighten around me—brick hard. “Right now it’s you and me. Today.
Tomorrow. And the day after that and the day after that. It’s always been you and me. It’s just taken us
a while to grow into this part of it.”

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.
