“Every heart sings a song, incomplete, until another heart whispers back."
-Plato”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“Love is not control, Logan. Love is partnership. Friendship. A wise man once said, 'If you want to be loved, be lovable.”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“I’ve already found the right person. I’m just waiting for her to be ready.”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“I miss you. I miss your smile. I miss your hand in mine. I miss your laugh when you're nervous. I wish to god I was hearing it right now. That hurricane was the best thing that ever happened to me because it brought you into my life.”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“just curious. You know. If I’d touched single junk or married”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“It’s a shame you woke up before I had to resort to more insistent tactics.”
“Oh?” She slid a hand down his stomach and played her fingers over his cock. It twitched in response to the light touch. “What did you have in mind?”
“Burying my face between your legs and licking your p**sy until you came.”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“Quit flirting with my woman, Griffin.”
“I’m not flirting with her, you Neanderthal. We can discuss mutual interests without it being flirting,” Griffin said, but he winked at her as if sharing a joke.
Logan snorted. “I’d believe it if I thought that talking archaeology didn’t give you a hard-on.”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“Brontë whimpered low in her throat. “Your mouth makes my panties so wet.”
God, that was erotic. He groaned. “Plato again?” he asked between kisses.
“Brontë Dawson,” she replied huskily. “I hear she’s got a thing for tall, dull guys.”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“Where do you fit into the picture? You’ve shown me the professor and the playboy. Where do you fit into all these neat little categories?”
He grinned at her, flashing white teeth. “I am a Lancelot at heart, I’m afraid. I like nothing more than to be of service. You’re looking at the world’s largest Boy Scout. Show me an old lady who needs to cross the street, and I’ll show you a man who will trip over his own two feet to assist her.”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“Thank you?” He was still panting. “For pulling out?”
“No,” she said dreamily, though that was nice of him, too. “For showing me where the G-spot was. I had no idea. I think I’m ruined for non-G-spot sex now.”
― Jessica Clare, quote from Stranded with a Billionaire
“The monster once awakened, may go into hibernation, but he is always lurking, just beneath the polite suits and phallic ties.”
― Julian Darius, quote from Nira/Sussa
“Something has fallen asleep there, that's all, but it's warm, and it's hers, it's the pain imprinted on her, and his healing powers rise up. It's her with everything she now is.”
― David Grossman, quote from To the End of the Land
“I don't think any of us wanted most of what's been given to us these past few weeks. We didn't want any of it to happen. But it has. I think I understand what that means. It means we must exercise grace in the face of fear and doubt and loss of belief. It means we must understand that this is how life works ─ that it challenges us; it tests us. It gives us burdens to bear, and the measure of who we are is how we manage those burdens.”
― Terry Brooks, quote from Bloodfire Quest
“The fucking beef industry and the fucking HMO industry,' Friendly says. 'Al-Cowda and HMOsama.”
― Josh Bazell, quote from Beat the Reaper
“The crickets kept crepitating; from time to time there came a sweet whiff of burning juniper; and above the black alpestrine steppe, above the silken sea, the enormous, all-engulfing sky, dove-gray with stars, made one's head spin, and suddenly Martin again experienced a feeling he had known on more than one occasion as a child: an unbearable intensification of all his senses, a magical and demanding impulse, the presence of something for which alone it was worth living.”
― Vladimir Nabokov, quote from Glory
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.
