“Everyone always talks about being color blind. And I get that. I do. But maybe instead of being color blind, we should celebrate color, in all its shades. It kind of bugs me that we’re supposed to ignore our differences like we don’t see them, when seeing them doesn’t have to be a negative.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“There are laws. There are rules. And when you break them, there are consequences. Laws of nature and laws of life. Laws of love and laws of death.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“Any time you start feeling sorry for yourself or you go into a rant about how bad life sucks, you immediately have to name five greats.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“If you don’t love, then nobody gets hurt. It’s easy to leave. It’s easy to lose. It’s easy to let go.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“People liked religion but they didn't want to have to exercise any faith. Religion was comforting with all its structure and its rules. It made people feel safe. But faith wasn't safe. Faith was hard and uncomfortable and forced people to step out on a limb.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“If I were to paint you, I would use every color.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“The dead weren't angry or lost. They knew exactly what was up. It was the living that didn't have a clue.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“Time softens memories, sanding down the rough edges of death.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“Georgia’s eyes. Georgia’s hair. Georgia’s smile. Georgia’s personality. Georgia’s kisses.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“he was like water—cold, deep, unpredictable, and, like the pond up the canyon, dangerous, because you could never see what was beneath the surface. And just like I’d done all my life, I jumped in head first, even though I’d been forbidden. But this time, I drowned.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“Do you think she knows how much I love her?"
"You gave her flowers and said you were sorry."
"I did."
"You kissed her."
I could only nod.
"You painted her pictures and hugged her when she cried."
"Yeah," I whispered.
"You laughed with her too."
I nodded again.
"Those are all the ways to say I love you.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“I’m a very ordinary girl, Moses. I know that I am. And I always will be. I can’t paint. I don’t know who Vermeer is, or Manet for that matter. But if you think ordinary can be beautiful, that gives me hope. And maybe sometime you’ll think about me when you need an escape from the hurt in your head.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“It was both manic and mesmerizing, it was controlled chaos and detailed dementia.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“A story of before and after, of new beginnings and never-endings. A story flawed and fractured, crazy and cracked, and most of all, a love story.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“THE FIRST FEW WORDS of every story are always the hardest to write. It’s almost as if pulling them out, putting them on paper, commits you to seeing it all through. As if once you start, you are required to finish. And how do you finish when some things never end?”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“I wanted to bite him hard enough to express my frustration, yet sweetly enough that he’d let me do it again.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“Forgiveness is usually easier than permission.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“We never saw what was obvious until we were hit over the head with it.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“My brain might be cracked, but it's not just my brain. The sky is cracked too, and I can sometimes see what's on the other side.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“Those are my five greats for Georgia today. Those were my five greats yesterday and they will be tomorrow and the next day, until your kisses get old. Then I'll have to think of something else.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“Normal was so lost to me that I didn't even know where to look for it”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“I turned, letting her catch me. And I caught her too, wrapping my arms around her so tight that the space between us became space around us, space above us, but not space inside us.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“People love babies, even sick babies. Even crack babies. But babies grow up to be kids. Nobody really wants messed up kids. And Moses was messed up.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“My brain is already scrambled enough.”“Cracked,” I said, not thinking.
“Yeah.” Moses scowled.
“Well, it’s working for you.” I turned and looked at my walls. “Cracks and all. In fact, if your brain wasn’t cracked, none of the brilliance could spill out. Do you realize that?”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“We can't escape ourselves, Tag. Here, there, half-way across the world, or in a psych ward in Salt Lake City. I'm Moses and you're Tag. And that part never changes. So either we figure it out here or we figure it out there. But we still gotta deal. And death won't change that.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“I want him to take life by the horns and ride it for all it's worth.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“If I tell you right up front, right in the beginning that I lost him, it will be easier for you to bear.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“I wondered how he'd learned to push the words away, to drown them, to not feel them pounding against his head and his heart, begging to be spoken.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses
“maybe none of us are safe. Not truly. Not even from the people we love. Not even from the people who love us.”
― Amy Harmon, quote from The Law of Moses

― Jeff Kinney, quote from The Third Wheel
“Belief in Yahweh doesn't come with your mind. It comes with your heart. When you only believe in things you can see with your eyes and touch with your hands, it is idolatry...
To have faith in Yahweh is to know that there is a realm of the spirit beyond the comprehension of our minds... Trusting in Molech... or trusting in your own wisdom and intellect - there's no difference in God's eyes. It's all idolatry.”
― Lynn Austin, quote from Gods and Kings
“There are bigger things to worry about. Bigger things than unrequited love and false kisses.”
― Janet Gurtler, quote from I'm Not Her
“I don't budge, accepting my fate, thankful that for a brief moment in my life I had the opportunity to discover what life was all about: the ability to love; the courage and strength it takes to love a person, no matter how different they are. Forgiving that they have flaws and appreciating their imperfections. Knowing those are the things that define them, forming them into something that cannot be defined and shelved into a category. Understanding that's what makes them so remarkable.”
― quote from Becoming Noah Baxter
“In the centre of Bond was a hurricane-room, the kind of citadel found in old-fashioned houses in the tropics. These rooms are small, strongly built cells in the heart of the house, in the middle of the ground floor and sometimes dug down into its foundations. To this cell the owner and his family retire if the storm threatens to destroy the house, and they stay there until the danger is past. Bond went to his hurricane room only when the situation was beyond his control and no other possible action could be taken. Now he retired to this citadel, closed his mind to the hell of noise and violent movement, and focused on a single stitch in the back of the seat in front of him, waiting with slackened nerves for whatever fate had decided for B. E. A. Flight No. 130.”

Friends With Partial...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.
