“He couldn't be dead. Not from the dagger, or those dozen pirates, or from the catapult. No, Sam couldn't be so stupid that he'd get himself killed. She'd... she'd... Well she'd kill him if he was dead.”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“Sam smiled, his brown eyes turning golden in the dawn. It was such a Sam look, the twinkle of mischief, the hint of exasperation, the kindness that would always, always make him a better person than she was.”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“Nervous?" he asked, his voice barely audible above the steady slice of his oars through the calm bay.
"No," she lied.
"Me too.”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“She'd... she'd... Well she'd kill him if he was dead.”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“She lifted her chin. "I've been shouting for you."
Sam shrugged, sauntering over to her. "I figured you could wait a few minutes, given that I saved the day and all." His brows rose high on his ash-covered face.
"Some hero." She gestured to the ruin of the tower around them. "I've never seen such sloppy work”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“Embracing Sam was different, somehow. Like she wanted to curl into his warmth, like for one moment, she didn't have to worry about anything or anybody.”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“Celaena?” Sam asked into the dark. “Should I worry about going to sleep?”
She blinked, then laughed under her breath. At least Sam took her threats somewhat seriously.”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“Sam stared at her long enough for heat to flood her cheek, as if he could see right inside of her-see everything. The fact that he didn't turn away from whatever he saw made her blood thrum through her veins.”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“Maybe I'm just unable to resist how handsome he is," she said. Sam went rigid.
"He's twelve years older than you."
"So?" He didn't think he was serious, did he?”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“But he was a filthy pirate. They were Arobynn Hamel's assassin-educated, wealthy, refined. Slavery was beneath them.”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“Supongo que si vamos a morir, más vale que sea por una causa noble”
― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord
“Come on, Sardothien,” he said, slinging an arm around her shoulders. “If you’re done liberating slaves and destroying pirate cities, then let’s go home.”

“Pensò al consiglio che gli aveva dato Tom, a quelle che, di fatto, erano state le sue ultime parole: se hai qualcosa da sistemare nella vita, devi farlo ora, finché puoi.
Per la prima volta da quando aveva memoria, Jimmy non si sentiva vuoto. Al contrario, era così pieno che stava quasi scoppiando. Non era un fantasma. “Non sono Tom,” disse ad alta voce. Nessuno si voltò a guardarlo.”
― Kim Fielding, quote from Rattlesnake
“Savannah had the power to hold people long after their final sell-by date had been carved into marble.”
― J.D. Horn, quote from The Line
“Shams and delusions are esteemed for soundest truths, while reality is fabulous. If men would steadily observe realities only, and not allow themselves to be deluded, life, to compare it with such things as we know, would be like a fairy tale”
― Henry David Thoreau, quote from Walden and other writings
“In the months that followed my mother's death, I managed to look like a normal person. I walked the street; I answered my phone; I brushed my teeth; most of the time. But I was not OK. I was in grief. Nothing seemed important. Daily tasks were exhausting. Dishes piled in the sink, knives crusted with strawberry jam. At one point I did not wash my hair for ten days. I felt that I had abruptly arrived at a terrible, insistent truth about the impermanence of everyday.”
― Meghan O'Rourke, quote from The Long Goodbye
“Sera was beginning to see that love wasn't pretty words and easy promises. Love was hard. It challenged you and changed you. It filled your heart and sometimes hardened it too. Love demanded sacrifices. She'd made many over the last few weeks, and knew she would be called upon to make many more.”
― Jennifer Donnelly, quote from Rogue Wave

House of Dark Shadow...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.
