“There will be three, kin of your kin, who hold the power of the stars in their paws.”
“Great, lets round up all the useless cats and hope a tree falls on them - Jayfeather”
“Your gift is not a burden," she whispered. "But you must be brave, because it has more power than the sharpest claw...”
“Great, let's round up all the useless cats and hope a tree falls on them.
-Jayfeather”
“You drift around the camp like a little dark cloud looking for someone to rain on," Leafpool snapped (at Jaypaw).”
“But thoughts of his brother quickly slid away, to be replaced with the memory of heather-colored eyes and a soft voice asking if he needed herbs.”
“He turned away from Leafpool, bristling with fury. “I hate being blind. I wish I had never been born!”
“As the patrols assembled, Jaypaw gulped down the rest of his meal and got to his paws. He”
“It’s not fair.” “Life isn’t fair. Stay”
“It’s not fair.” “Life isn’t fair,” Jaypaw”
“Her pelt prickling with frustration, Hollykit pushed her way through the brambles and raced back to the nursery. She had just discovered how she wanted to serve her Clan, how to make sure that what she did really mattered. She wanted to be the next ThunderClan medicine cat!”
“Could blind cats be heroes? Jaypaw wondered. Perhaps . .”
“Loyalty is proved by what we do, not where we came from!”
“What’s wrong, Hollypaw?” Leafpool looked up. “You look as though you’ve just lost our entire supply of poppy seeds!” Then her face grew serious. “You haven’t, have you?”
“It’s sticking up like a bluebell!” Lionkit’s tail slapped against the frozen earth.”
“We’ve taken what should be ours, and we will take more,” Smokefoot told him.”
“How could she criticize her mother when, in truth, she wanted to be just like her, brave”
“We’re scientists,’ I reminded him. ‘We shouldn’t be defeated by problems. If we think hard enough, a solution will present itself.”
“So what I always say is that it’s always better to err on the side of kindness. That’s the secret. If you don’t know what to do, just be kind. You can’t go wrong. Which is why I asked you three to help me out here, because I’d heard from your lower-school teachers that you’re all really nice kids.” We didn’t know what to say to this, so we all just kind of smiled like goobers. “Just treat him like you would treat any kid you’ve just met,” he said. “That’s all I’m trying to say. Okay, guys?” We nodded at the same time now, too. Bobbling heads. “You guys rock,” he said. “So, relax, wait here a bit, and Mrs. Garcia will come and get you in a few minutes.” He opened the door. “And, guys, really, thanks again for doing this. It’s good”
“Just another part of that Spartan killer instinct. I can slay the ladies just as well as I can reapers.”
“Ironically, the first time he played it, he experienced his first dream vision with his own ‘flame jumelle’, Rune – and saved her from drowning. Thereafter he decided that must be the magic the instrument held: the ability to bring two souls together when they needed each other the most.”
“All good Heroes are scared, if they know the evil they face. Briggs”
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.
