“No need to act, i let my fear show "He killed himself," i whispered.
Eve raised an eyebrow. "Fourteen times?"
"He had bad aim.”
“I offer my heart, entrust my soul and give my life to you.”
“Valek smiled. “Good. First, send Kade a reply, asking
him not to come.” He pointed at the unopened letter on the table. I had forgotten about it. Sealed with wax, the message appeared
to be secured. Valek shrugged. “I was bored.”
“I'm your mother. I see all. Hear all. Know all.”
“You're living in the present. It's a reminder that you can see the future if you just point the glass in the right direction.”
“Devlen: Stop second-guessing yourself. Do what you need to do. Don't apologize. When the time comes, you'll know what is important and what isn't.
Opal: I thought you said there weren't any easy answer.
Devlen: I didn't say it would be easy. Sometimes being true to yourself is the hardest thing to do.”
“Hay una sola cosa que deseo hacer cuando me liberen. Estar contigo”
“But how many times can you upset someone and still return to normal? Isn't there a point when the person gives up on you?”
“Tú me conectas a la tierra. Cuando estoy en la costa-hizo un gesto hacia la parte oeste del horizonte-, y danzando, puedo fácilmente perderme en la energía y personalidad de la tormenta. Solo quería hacer eso después de que mi hermana muriese, pero tú me mantuviste conectado. Me diste una razón para volver.”
“Resting, recuperating, moping, it's all the same.”
“The big man shifted in his seat, appearing uncomfortable. “Do you really believe we would eliminate someone you’re in love with?”
I sputtered. “I’m not—”
Ari held up a hand. “He’s helping you, then. That’s important to us.”
Staring at him in shock, I finally asked, “Love trumps logic?”
“Every time,” Valek said.”
“No puedo existir sin ti, así que matar a Galen no es una opción. Preferiría perderte por el Stormdancer, que perderte en el cielo.”
“You know what I want and need. And you love me.”
“You rush off to solve Sitia’s problems and you don’t need my help. But I want to be selfish, keeping you safe with me.”
“A hidden gem of knowledge awaits.."
"in the trees of wisdom where He mandates."
"the right to read the tomes of our people..."
"to find your answers on defeating the evil.”
“The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song. (Psalm 28:7 NIV)”
“Activity and rest are two vital aspects of life. To find a balance in them is a skill in itself. Wisdom is knowing when to have rest, when to have activity, and how much of each to have. Finding them in each other - activity in rest and rest in activity - is the ultimate freedom.”
“Here’s the important thing to say about meetings – nothing important ever got decided in a meeting. The place to get your own way is over lunch, in someone’s office, in the corridor, over drinks, dinner, anywhere but in a fucking meeting. What meetings are very good for, however, is stitching people up – undermining, belittling and humiliating them.”
“There is no dishonor in losing the race,” Don said. “There is only dishonor in not racing because you are afraid to lose.”
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.
