― Elizabeth Hoyt, quote from The Leopard Prince

“Be that as it may, a gentleman doesn’t continue to press his
attentions on a lady who can’t return them.”
“Then, as I see it, you have two problems, my lord,” Harry said.
Tony’s eyes narrowed.
“One, that the lady does, in fact, return my attentions, and two”—Harry turned to meet the earl’s
gaze—“I am no gentleman.”

Harry.”

"Stop!"
"What?"

― Elizabeth Hoyt, quote from The Leopard Prince

― Elizabeth Hoyt, quote from The Leopard Prince

About the author

Popular quotes

“There was a mountain of grief to be climbed, and no amount of talk would help me up it.”
― quote from The Girl Before

“El romance hablaba de cierto brujo y cierta poetisa. De cómo el brujo y la poetisa se conocieron a la orilla del mar, entre los chillidos de las gaviotas; cómo se enamoraron desde el primer momento. De cuán hermoso y fuerte era su amor. De que nada, ni siquiera la muerte, sería capaz de destruir aquel amor ni de separarlos. Jaskier sabía que pocas personas creerían la historia que contaba el romance, pero no se preocupó por ello. Sabía que los romances no se escriben para que se crea en ellos, sino para emocionar. Algunos años después, Jaskier podría haber cambiado el contenido del romance, haber escrito sobre lo que sucedió en realidad. No lo hizo. La verdadera historia no hubiera emocionado a nadie. ¿Quién querría escuchar que el brujo y Ojazos se separaron y no se volvieron a ver nunca más, ni una sola vez? ¿Que cuatro años más tarde Ojazos murió de viruela durante una epidemia que asoló Wyzima? ¿Que él, Jaskier, la sacó en sus brazos de entre los cadáveres quemados en las hogueras y la enterró lejos de la ciudad, en el bosque, sola y tranquila, y junto con ella, tal y como había pedido, dos cosas: su laúd y su perla celeste? Una perla de la que nunca se separó.”
― Andrzej Sapkowski, quote from Blood of Elves

“We are the ink that gives the white page a meaning.”
― Jean Genet, quote from Prisoner of Love

“He who has learned to disagree without being disagreeable has discovered the most valuable secret of negotiation.”
― Chris Voss, quote from Never Split the Difference: Negotiating As If Your Life Depended On It

“Jane wondered...When the girl was not cleaning her suite, which wouldn't take much time, and when she was not making her meals, and when she was not exercising, and when she was not being owned by some visitor, how often did she sit staring into space, alone and silent and still, as if she were a doll abandoned by a child who had moved on from childish things and no longer loved her?”
― Dean Koontz, quote from The Silent Corner

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.
