“You can’t fully love anyone until you learn to love yourself.”
“The way you love the man you marry is going to be different than the love you felt for an old boyfriend.”
“I did it because I think it’s time you finally knew that the stars were always for you. Always. Only. Ever. For you.”
“Electrical shivers shoot up my leg. And my knee is such a slut! She likes it! She’s that friend you have. The one who you tell you’re on a diet and the next day she shows up with cupcakes and says, Aww, just one won’t hurt. But when I look down at my knee, I realize that she’s not only a slut, she’s an enabler. She’s all, Look at your knee. How small it looks under his big hand. How safe it feels. God, I hate my knee.”
“I grind so fine, I’m practically coffee,” he says with a straight face, then busts out a grin.”
“Love is the poetry of the senses.” Some”
“Hey, Audrey, shut the fuck up. We’re trying to watch the game.”
“After a kiss like that, he should know I’m the one. He should be down on his knees begging me to marry him and have his little Hottie babies.”
“Sander is a great boyfriend. He’s super attentive, dresses well, loves to shop, and never even looks at other girls.”
“So, congratulations, you’re finally getting what you dreamed of." I take the key from around my neck, drop it into his hand, and say, “I understand perfectly.”
“flirt. Why the hell not? I’m single. You’re single. Let’s mingle. Just because I’m not going to fall in love doesn’t mean I can’t have some fun.”
“You can have all the brains in the world, but it takes a body to get most men’s attention.”
“Randy cradles my head, his palm resting at the nape of my neck. “Now you want the lights on?” “I want to see your face when I fuck you.”
“„Vidiš“, reče on sjedajući, „to je čudno, ali pronalazimo svakojake
razloge ne bismo li spriječili sebe da volimo, zato što se plašimo da
ćemo patiti, da ćemo jednog dana biti ostavljeni. Volimo, međutim,
život, iako znamo da će nas on jednog dana napustiti.”
“One can din happiness in a variety of places. It can be in a busy city of many, such as Solas; but it may also be alone, deep in a tranquil forest. It is not always among your kind" -Rovender”
“Can’t you nudge her into submission? (Taryn)
Are you kidding? As stubborn as she is? I’d fry my brain trying. (Sphinx)”
“The rules of life are not to be found in Korans, Bibles, Decalogues and Constitutions, but rather the rules of decadence and death. The “law of laws” is not written in Hebrew consonants or upon tables of brass and stone, but in every man’s own heart. He who obeys any standard of right and wrong, but the one set up by his own conscience, betrays himself into the hands of his enemies, who are ever laying in wait to bind him to their millstones. And generally a man’s most dangerous enemies are his neighbors.”
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.
