“Care to join me, Goodfellow?”
“Oh, ice-boy. A moonlight stroll with you? Do you even have to ask?”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Huh, another queen,” Puck mused, an evil grin crossing his face. “Maybe we should drop in and introduce ourselves, ice-boy. Do the whole, hey, we were just in the neighborhood, and we were just wondering if you had any plans to take over the Nevernever. Have a fruit basket.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Tough guy, if brooding was a sport, you'd have gold medals with scowling faces lining the walls of your room.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“My attention was riveted to Keirran.
He shot me a pained, embarrassed wince. “Yeah. I was going to tell you…sooner or later. There just wasn’t a good time.” He paused, his voice going very soft. “I’m sorry... Uncle.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Tie rock to tail and throw kitty in
lake. Watch kitty sink, ha!”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince



“Good. I would hate to have you eaten before we even started,” he purred, raking his claws across the wood. “You appear to have the same recklessness as your sister, always rushing into things without thinking them through.”
“Don’t compare me to Meghan,” I said, narrowing my eyes. “I’m not like her.”
“Indeed. She, at least, had a pleasant personality.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“I would not worry about that, mortal. No one ever leaves the Nevernever completely sane.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“A pretty handsome jerk, I might add, but a huge, colossal megajerk nonetheless." Kenzie gave me a quick glance to see how I was taking this. I shrugged.
Not going to argue with that.
And then a second later:
She thought I was handsome?”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“But there are things I want to do before I die, a whole list that I know I probably won't get to, but I'm sure as hell going to try.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Quaint and picturesque, though I didn't voice my opinion out loud. Keirran and Annwyl were faeries, and Kenzie was a girl, so it was okay for them to notice such things. as a card-carrying guy club, I wasn't going to comment on the floral arrangements.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince



“Kenzie approached sheepishly, one half of the broken rattan in her hand. "Sorry," she said, holding up the ruined weapon with a helpless gesture. "It...uh...died a noble death. I can only hope it gave that thing a wicked tongue splinter.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“The Nevernever," she murmured, almost to herself, "I'm in the Nevernever. I'm in freaking faeryland.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Razor, calm down. Say hi to our new friends."
The gremlin, now perched on Keirran's arm, turned to stare at us with blazing green eyes and started crackling like a bad radio station.
"They can't understand you, Razor," Keiran said mildly. "English."
"Oh," said the gremlin. "Right." It grinned widely, baring a mouthful of sharp teeth that glowed neon-blue. "Hiiiiiiii.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Kenzie took two staggering steps backward, staring at the feeline as if in a daze. "O-kay," she breathed, shaking her head slightly. "A cat. A cat that talks. I'm going crazy." she glanced at me. " Or you slipped something into my drink at the tournament. One or the other.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Well, well,” answered a cool, amused voice from somewhere above us. “And here you are again. Ethan Chase, your family does have a knack for getting into trouble.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince



“Kenzie's head jerked up, her eyes brightening. "Irland?"
"Yay!" Razor crowed, bouncing up and down on Kierran shoulder. "Sheep!”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Huh,” she said in a neutral voice, then looked out over the pasture again, at the sheep racing through the grass like frantic clouds. A defiant expression crossed her face, and she took a breath.
“Razor!” she barked, making Keirran jump. “No! Bad gremlin! You stop that, right now!”
The gremlin, shockingly, looked up from where he was bouncing on a rock, sheep scattering around him. He blinked and cocked his head, looking confused. Kenzie pointed to the ground in front of her.
“I want to see you. Come here, Razor,. Now!”
And, he did. Blipping into sight at her feet, he gazed up expectantly, looking like a mutant Chihuahua awaiting commands. Keirran blinked in astonishment as she snapped her fingers and pointed at him, and Razor scurried up his arm to perch on his shoulder. She smiled, giving us both a smug look, and crossed her arms.
“Dog training classes,” She explained.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“I can’t stop it. I can’t stop Them from following me. If it was just me that the fey picked on, I’d be okay with that. But someone else always pays for my Sight. Someone else always gets hurt instead of me.” Tearing my gaze from hers, I looked out over the fields. “I’d rather be alone,” I muttered, “then to have to watch that again.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Razor appeared on his shoulder with a buzzing laugh. "Stupid goblins," he crowed, bouncing up and down, making Kierran sigh. "Funny, stupid goblins think master is funny elf. Ha!" He buzzed once more and sat down, grinning like a psychotic piranha.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“He sneered and bared his teeth, but then Razor knocked over a platter of fruit, and he hurried off with a curse. Leanansidhe threw up her hands.
“Keirran, dove. Your gremlin. Please keep it under control.” The Exile Queen pinched the bridge of her nose and sighed heavily. “Worse than having Robin Goodfellow in my house,” she murmured, as Kenzie clapped her hands, and Razor bounced happily into her lap.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince



“...drag you back if you do not wish to go. Though... the prince consort did mention the phrase, throw away the key, at one point.”
I couldn’t be sure, but I thought I saw Keirran gulp.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Glitch will go straight to the queen, and she is not going to be happy. With either of us. And if Ash decides to pursue…” For the first time, a worried look crossed his face.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“So nice to see you, human,” a voice purred from an overhead branch. Grimalkin sniffed, looking from me to Keirran, and smiled. “How amusing that you are both here. The queen is not at all happy with either of you.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“She seemed pleasantly surprised that I’d read the homework assignment the night before, despite being somewhat distracted by the thoughts of gremlins lurking around my computer. Apparently satisfied that I could listen and stare out the window at the same time, Miss Singer finally left me alone, and I went back to brooding in peace.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“And if it gets you killed?” She shrugged and looked away. “No one lives forever.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince



“Honestly, why do boys always think they know what’s best for us? Why can’t they just talk?” “I’ve often wondered the same, darling,” Leanansidhe sighed. “It’s one of the mysteries of the universe, trust me.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“As Annwyl turned away, Keirran rose swiftly, not touching her but very close. "I'm not afraid of exile," he said quietly, and the Summer girl closed her eyes. "And I don't care what the courts say. My own parents defied those laws, and look where they are now." His hand rose, gently brushing her braid, causing several butterflies to flit skyward. "I would do the same for you, if you just gave me the chance-”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Bad kitty!” growled Razor, shaking his head as if he was shooing off a fly. “Evil, sneaky, nasty kitty! Boy should cut its nose off, yes. Tie rock to tail and throw kitty in lake. Watch kitty sink, ha!”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“Esta era Meghan, la misma Meghan que tenía que cuidarme, que había entrado en el Nuncajamás para traerme a casa. Y a pesar de mi ira, a pesar de todos los oscuros momentos en los que pensé que la odiaba, seguía siendo mi hermana.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince


“―Yo no me preocuparía por eso, mortal. Nadie sale del Nuncajamás
completamente cuerdo.”
― Julie Kagawa, quote from The Lost Prince

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.
