“If you became mine, I wouldn’t let you go.” His words were clipped, as if he was biting back frenzy. “Understand me, if I’m your first lover— I will be your last.” The ringing tone of finality chilled me. “And I would kill any man who thought to touch what was mine.”
― Kresley Cole, quote from The Professional: Part 2
“Seriously, you have no idea how much your situation is affecting me. I’ve been stress-eating my way across Greece.”
I frowned. “You don’t stress-eat—”
“Cock, Natalie. I was stress-eating cock. There, you made me say it, happy now?”
“Opa!”
“Twat.”
“Bitch.”
― Kresley Cole, quote from The Professional: Part 2
“Don’t close me out.” He curled his finger under my chin, all tenderness, even as he said, “How could I close you out when I never let you in?”
― Kresley Cole, quote from The Professional: Part 2
“In all these interludes with Sevastyan, I hadn’t been Natalie. I’d been Natalya. And that brainless hussy didn’t seem to know better.”

“You’re a smart girl. You’re going to replay everything we’ve done, and you’re going to reach the same conclusion I have.” He moved in close, leaning down to kiss my jawline and lower.
“And wh- what conclusion is that?” When had he discovered how sensitive my neck was? With one spot in particular. . .
He pressed his lips directly to my pulse point, making my knees weak. “Eto ne izbezhno dlya nas.” You and I are inevitable.”
― Kresley Cole, quote from The Professional: Part 2

“When he set her feet on the ground, she did not move her hands from his shoulders right away, but looked at him with a winsome expression. His breath came fast and hard, and he wished once more they could be alone and he could just kiss her and see what happened.”
― Kim Vogel Sawyer, quote from Waiting for Summer's Return
“There is as much guidance in what does not and cannot happen in my life as there is in what can and does -- maybe more.”
― Parker J. Palmer, quote from Let Your Life Speak: Listening for the Voice of Vocation
“Sì, s', sì, lo sapevo. Fumare fa male. Mangiare fa male. Bere fa male. Tutte le cose piacevoli fanno male o come minimo fanno ingrassare. Troppa eccitazione fa male. Troppo lavoro fa male. In pratica la vita non è altro che un pericolosissimo campo minato e alla fine cadi da una scala mentre raccogli ciliegie o finisci sotto una macchina mentre vai a comprare il pane, come la portinaia nell'Eleganza del Riccio.”
― Nicolas Barreau, quote from The Ingredients of Love
“Hannah and Kayla are talking without saying anything. Their conversation goes like this:
Hannah: Uh-huh.
Kayla: It was like, ugh!
Hannah: I know.
Kayla: Shit. Come on!
Hannah: Well, you know, whatever.
Kayla: I guess, but still.
Hannah: Yeah.
Kayla: You know?
Hannah: Yeah.”

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.
