Quotes from Snakecharm

“You speak of giving up my dreams. Have you ever, since Maeve's coven split, had a dream? Have you ever had anything worth dying for?”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm

“You have no sense of what war is like. You have no idea what it means to see those you love fall. You cannot possibly understand what it is to fight for what you believe, and how sometimes you have to fight with words and dreams after all the weapons have been put away. You serve a cold god, surviving on his power for thousands of years without ever living!”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm

“...sifting through our thoughts like children going through colored stones -- optimistic, because although some were too dark and some were too sharp, many glittered like precious gems.”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm

“The inherent dangers of youth will never change. Volatile hearts and ill-advised flirtations can hardly be compared to the hatred and slaughter of war.”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm

“You may come back as soon as your senses have returned.”
― Amelia Atwater-Rhodes, quote from Snakecharm

About the author

Popular quotes

“This girl who equally drove me crazy and made me care about her more than I should. She was the only one who understood. The only one who could help make what I was more bearable, even if she occasionally tortured me in the process.”
― Stacey Kade, quote from Queen of the Dead

“Just because somebody smiles when he hands me a bag of shit, that doesn't mean I have to take it. I don't give a damn how friendly he is. It's what he does that matters.”
― David Morrell, quote from First Blood

“A woman can run faster with her skirt up than a man can with his pants down.”
― Karin Slaughter, quote from Fallen

“Colonization would make of Germany a continental empire fit to rival the United States, another hardy frontier state based upon exterminatory colonialism and slave labor. The East was the Nazi Manifest Destiny. In Hitler’s view, “in the East a similar process will repeat itself for a second time as in the conquest of America.” As Hitler imagined the future, Germany would deal with the Slavs much as the North Americans had dealt with the Indians. The Volga River in Russia, he once proclaimed, will be Germany’s Mississippi.9”
― Timothy Snyder, quote from Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin

“La misantropia nasce dal riporre eccessiva fiducia in qualcuno senza una conoscenza tecnica, dal ritenere un uomo completamente veritiero, sano e affidabile, e dallo scoprire dopo poco tempo che è cattivo e inaffidabile, e così ancora con altri. E quando uno soffra molte volte per questa stessa esperienza, e soprattutto da parte di quelli che considera più vicini e più amici, allora, per i ripetuti colpi, finisce per odiare tutti e per ritenere che non ci sia niente di sincero in nessuno. Non ti sei accorto che è così che succede?".
"Certo" risposi.
"E questo - disse - non è brutto? e non è chiaro che chi agisce così cerca di trattare le persone senza una conoscenza specifica delle cose umane? Se infatti agisse con questa conoscenza, li giudicherebbe così come sono, alcuni estremamente buoni o cattivi, e la maggioranza mediocremente buona o cattiva".”
― Plato, quote from Phaedo

About BookQuoters

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.
