Quotes from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord

― Sarah J. Maas, quote from The Assassin and the Pirate Lord

Popular quotes

“She stays lost in the middle of her own world somewhere. We can’t get in and she doesn’t come out. Not often anyway, and certainly not for any length of time. But her mind takes her to somewhere kind, I think, to judge by the peaceful, serene look on her face most of the time. ”
― Malorie Blackman, quote from Noughts & Crosses

“Could others hold him?"

His face remains the same. "There are no others. You're the only one."

I swallow. "I can hold him.”
― Maggie Stiefvater, quote from The Scorpio Races

“I heard you're campaigning on my behalf." He walked over to me. "That wouldn't be because you'd miss me too much if I were gone,would it?"
"Don't be absurd," I scoffed. "I don't condone murder, even for people like you."
"People like me,huh?" He cocked an eyebrow. "You mean devilishly handsome, debonair young men who come to sweep rebellious princesses of their feet?"
"You came to kidnap me, not sweep me off my feet," I said,but he waved his hand at the idea.
"Semantics.”
― Amanda Hocking, quote from Torn

“أيها الشيطان التعس، ألا تعلم أن الرب لا يوجد في الأديرة بل في منازل البشر؟! انك حيثما تجد زوجاً وزوجة تجد هناك الرب، حيثما يوجد الأطفال والهموم الصغيرة والطبخ والمناقشات والمصالحات يوجد أيضاً الرب! لا تنصت الي أولئك الخصيان، انهم عنب حامض، الرب الذي أعنيه هو الأليف وليس الديري، هذا هو الرب الحقيقي! انه هو الجدير بعبادتك. دع الرب الآخر لأولئك البلهاء الكسالي العقيمين القابعين في الصحراء ... اذن فبغيتك الصحراء، أنت أيضا شهيتك مفتوحة لسف الرمال، أليس كذلك؟ ولكن أليست لك عينان يا ولدي الرائع؟ ألا تري كروم العنب والشمس والنساء؟ هيا اسمع كلامي، هيا الي مجدلة، هناك مكانك الصحيح! ألم تقرأ مرة الكتب المقدسة؟ الرب يقول: "لا أريد صوماً وصلاة، أريد لحماً" بعبارة أخري انه يريد منك أن تنجب له أطفالاً!”
― Nikos Kazantzakis, quote from The Last Temptation of Christ

“So most men teach, and few men learn.”

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.
