“-No me di cuenta que eras tan bueno, Grayson.
El cálido sonido de la risa de Grayson retumbó gratamente contra el costado de mi cara que descansaba en su pecho.
- Las damiselas en apuros siempre han sido mi talón de Aquiles, pero no dejes que eso te engañe. Realmente no soy tan bueno.
- Si, lo eres.
- No, no lo soy. Si yo fuera honesto, no estaría teniendo un momento tan difícil para no agarrarte el culo ahora mismo.
(Avery y Grayson)
-Pero miraté - dije -. Siempre pensaste que era como una hermana también. Si puedes cambiar de opinión, entonces el también puede. El sólo necesita un llamado de atención
.-Oye ahora, no puedes ir saltando en la ducha con cada chico, sabes. Eso es completamente nuestra cosa.
(Avery y Grayson)
Escuché que mi amiga Avery te pisó tan fuerte en una partida de billas el pasado fin de semana que Grayson tuvo que tener piedad de ti antes de que cada estudiante de primer año universitario en UVU viera cuán pequeña es tu basura.
(Libby a Owen)
- ¿Realmente fallaste en un examen de sobre Las leyes de Newton?
Está bien. Así que todos me miraban porque pensaban que yo era un idiota.
- ¿Qué? - le pregunté un poco a la defensiva -. ¿Parece ser fácil? "No robar" le entiendo. "Rojo significa detenerse" tiene sentido. El chico Newton estaba fumando algo serio cuando debió haber hecho sus leyes. ¿Cuándo demonios vamos a usarlas de todos modos?
(Brandon y Grayson)”
― Kelly Oram, quote from The Avery Shaw Experiment
“That's a very strongly defined term, dear, 'wrong choices' and i'm not sure it's helpful. There are no wrong or right choices, necessarily, just those you make or don't make and the consequences. And by extension, how you deal with the consequences.”
― Janina Matthewson, quote from Of Things Gone Astray
“She smiled back at him, and before she realized it, she blurted out, “I love you.”
― Sam Sisavath, quote from The Purge of Babylon
“I've won, and Hayden is my weapon.”
― Lily Paradis, quote from Volition
“Our love would be solace, companionship, and the mending of wounds.”
― Amy Tan, quote from The Valley of Amazement
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.
