Quotes from Tempting the Beast

“But I might—” he bit out. “Tell me you’re not a fucking virgin.”

“No, I’m not a fucking virgin. Virgins have yet to fuck, remember?”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Tempting the Beast

“Testosterone overload?" Merinus gave an unladylike grunt. "More like asshole overload if you ask me.”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Tempting the Beast

“Callan took a deep breath. “I never expected you.” He shook his head with an edge of amusement. “You are a dangerous woman, Merinus Tyler.”

“Naw, just a determined woman.” She grinned against his shoulder. “I know a good thing when I see it jacking off.”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Tempting the Beast

“When they reached the stairs, he didn’t make her climb them herself. He picked her up in his arms and carried her to the big bathroom off their bedroom. He didn’t speak, his expression didn’t soften. But he was hard. His cock was like a poker, steely and hot against her hip. His eyes blazed with lust.”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Tempting the Beast

“It’s normal.” Doc grinned. “The mating ritual of all animals. The males fight for dominance over their females. Human males have lost the fight in the past generations with feminism and equal rights and getting in touch with their sensitive sides,” he snickered. “Callan’s DNA refuses to allow him the choice in dominating her. It’s part of his genetic code.”
― Lora Leigh, quote from Tempting the Beast

Popular quotes

“I take a swig from Milo’s flask and hand it back to him. He screws the top back on. He inherited the flash from his grandfather and stole the liquor from his mother. The circle of life.”
― Courtney Summers, quote from Fall for Anything

“وانتبه إلى المعنى الدقيق لهذه الكلمة: النرجسي، ليس المتكبر..
فالمتكبر يحتقر الآخرين، يقلل من قدرهم،
أما النرجسي فيُغالي في تقديرهم، لأنه يرى في عيني كل واحد منهم صورته الخاصة ويريد تجميلها،
يهتم إذًا بلطف بكل مراياه.
وما يهم في نظرك من بينهما هو اللطيف، أما برأيي: فهو النفاج بالطبع.”
― Milan Kundera, quote from The Festival of Insignificance

“Fools admire everything in an author of reputation.”
― Voltaire, quote from Candide: or, Optimism

“Did I really feel so powerless in my own life that I had to take this poor, vulnerable creature's to compensate”
― Graeme Cameron, quote from Normal

“البته او به خدا اعتقادی نداشت، چه حرفها! ولی احساس می کرد که به جای خدا کسی یا چیزی هست. کسی یا چیزی که با خدا کاملا فرق دارد و هنوز به داد کسی نرسیده است. وجود او را چنان بدیهی می دانست که تعجب می کرد که چطور مردم هنوز به خدا اعتقاد دارند حال آنکه چیزی چنان تابناک و حقیقی وجود دارد، چیزی که مطلقا نمی شد در وجودش تردید کرد. آدمهایی که به خدا اعتقاد دارند در اعماق دلشان همه بی خدا هستند”
― Romain Gary, quote from The Ski Bum

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.
