“There will be three, kin of your kin..." Jayfeather's voice shook as he wondered if he could possibly be right. "Cloudtail is Firestar's kin, Whitewing is Cloudtail's daughter, and now Dovekit and Ivykit...Don't you see? The prophecy isn't over! We aren't the only kin of Firestar's kin. It doesn't matter which of Whitewing's kits is the one. There are still three of us!
[Jayfeather]”

“..in the harshest days of leaf-bare clanmate turns upon clanmate danger lurks behind familiar faces and one more warrior may be lost forever”

“While Brambleclaw paused to taste the air, she crouched down beside one of the puddles and touched the ice with her tongue, grateful for the tingling freshness. “Come on,” the Clan deputy meowed. “This way.” Hollyleaf tried to jump up, only to stop with a strangled cry of dismay. Her tongue had frozen to the ice; a sharp pain shot through it as she tried to wrench herself free. “What’s the matter?” Lionblaze asked. “My tongue . . .” Hollyleaf could hardly get the words out. “It’th thtuck!” Lionblaze snorted as he suppressed a mrrow of laughter. Birchfall stooped down until he was nose to nose with Hollyleaf; irritation swelled inside her when she saw amusement dancing in his eyes. “It’th not funny!” she mumbled as clearly as she could with her tongue plastered to the ice. “Stand back.” Brackenfur’s calm voice came from behind Hollyleaf. “Let me have a look.” He leaned beside Birchfall, gently shouldering the younger cat out of the way. “Well, you’re certainly stuck,” he went on. Hollyleaf could tell that he was struggling not to laugh, too. “I suppose we could break off the ice. Then you’d have to carry it until it melts.” “Hey, you’ve discovered a new way to fetch water for the elders!” Hazeltail put in. Her pelt itching with frustration, Hollyleaf tried again to wrench her tongue free, only getting another stab of pain for her efforts. “It hurt-th! Do thomething!” She pictured herself crouched on the hard ground with her tongue stretched out, and suddenly she felt laughter bubbling up inside her. I guess I do look pretty funny. She couldn’t remember the last time she had found anything to laugh at.”

“— Погоди, я тебе покажу! Стану такой ворчливой и капризной старейшиной, что по сравнению со мной Кисточка покажется ласковой королевой!
— Ну да, и ежи полетят, — пробасил Крутобок.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“— Небесные коты! — снова фыркнул Пурди. — Да скорее ежи полетят, чем я поверю в эти сказочки.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“Холодная радость зажглась в глубине янтарных глаз Сола.
— Думаете, племя Теней сможет оправдаться? Эти тупые коты способны только верить в детские сказочки о мертвых котиках, которые решат все их проблемы и придут на помощь в трудную пору! Они до сих пор верят в дурацкие знаки, идиоты!”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“— Это не трудно! — крикнула Джинго, свесив голову вниз и призывно помахивая хвостом.
— Ага, как же! — пробурчал Березовик. — Так же нетрудно, как ежу взлететь орлом!”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“— Надеюсь, Листвичка довольна собой, — проворчал он, укладываясь на свою подстилку. — Завтра я не смогу пошевелить лапой, и проку от меня будет, как от больного ежа!”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“Джинго кивнула, а когда остальные патрульные тепло попрощались с ней, она повернулась и побежала вдоль стены в обратную сторону.
— До свидания, Джингозвездая, — прошептал Ежевика так тихо, что удаляющаяся кошка вряд ли могла его услышать. — Пусть Звездное племя освещает твой путь.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“— Если бы Уголек повздорил с кем-нибудь из Грозовых котов, мы бы непременно об этом узнали! — горячо закивал Бурый. — Такое нельзя скрыть от племени! У нас же каждый на виду!
«Ага, как же! И еще у нас над оврагом ежи летают!»”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“— Все может быть, — пробурчал Ягодник.
— Ну конечно! Порой и ежи летают, — усмехнулся Дым.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“Everything added up. Which cat could depend on Squirrelflight’s loyalty, knowing she would carry out the deception for moons and moons, even if it meant lying to her own mate? Which cat had always poured out love and concern around him and his littermates? Which cat could never admit that she had borne kits? Leafpool! Leafpool is our mother!”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“What happens if he kills me here? Will I be really dead?”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“Maybe it’s best that he stayed behind, she thought. It’s not like he can look for Sol himself.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“In the Twoleg nests around them, lights began to appear in the dark holes in the walls. Lionblaze heard a Twoleg shouting angrily, but the dogs went on barking and pounding at the fence. His belly lurched when he saw that the small brown-and-white dog had stuck its head through the gap and the wood around it was starting to splinter. The dark tabby she-cat darted forward and slashed her claws at the dog’s nose. Yelping, it pulled back.”
― Erin Hunter, quote from Sunrise
“Cats who didn’t want to attack WindClan, Lionblaze realized. Firestar isn’t taking any risks.”

“music is the worst of them - roiling and boiling - overly emotionalized on the one hand, overly intellectuallized on the other. Bach and Mozart indeed! Bach inevitably makes me think of fish in a barrel! round and round and round they go and nothing ever happens. Nothing ! Tum -de-dum-dum. Tum -de-dum-dum and that's all! Tum -de-dum-de-bloody-dum-dum! As for Mozart, his emotions did not mature beyond the age of twelve. never achieved adolescence, let alone puberty. his music merely combines a popular talent for slapstick and a commercial talent for tears. No - not tears. For sobs. Beethoven, pompous. Chopin - sickly sweet and given to tantrums - Tum -de-dum-dum- Bang! and Wagner - a self -centred bore. and Stravinsky - discordant, rude and blows his music through his nose”

“We are not dead but asleep, dreaming of ourselves.”

“While Trip’s looking for a place to stay, I was hoping maybe you would let me stay at your apartment.” She holds her breath, waiting for my response. “Are you fucking kidding me?” I ask again. But this time I wrap my arms around her while I do it and spin her around. She giggles against me, and I can feel the movement of it in her belly. She doesn’t try to push me away the way she did with Trip earlier when he tried this move on her. Of course, he wasn’t the happiest man in the whole fucking world when he did it. I guess that matters. “Of course you can stay with me.” I tweak her nose. “Silly woman.” I want her with me every minute of every day. “Your brothers won’t mind?” she asks. “They’ll be ecstatic,” I say. I tuck a lock of hair behind her ear. “They’ve missed you.” “Does your apartment smell like sweaty socks and stale pizza?” she asks. I grimace. It probably does. I hold my finger and thumb an inch apart. “Maybe a little bit.” She cuddles into me, wrapping her arms around my waist. She says something against my chest, but I can’t see her lips. I tip her face up. “What?” I ask. “I love you,” she says.”

The Boy With The Tho...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.
