Quotes from The Wolf and the Dove

“You are stingy with our words," she accused, then laughed gayly as she swept around, tossing over her shoulder a roguish look that drew the length of him. "But I am more generous, my lord. You are indeed a fine sight."
-Aislinn”

“Do I perceive a softening in your heart for me, damoiselle?" He laughed at her scowl. "Beware maid. I will tell you true. After you will come another and then another. There are no strings that can tether me to any woman. So guard your heart."
"My lord, you greatly exaggerate your appeal," she replied indignantly. "If I fell anything for you, 'tis hatred. You are the enemy and you are to be despised as such."
"Indeed?" He smiled slowly into her eyes.
"Then tell me, damoiselle, do you always kiss the enemy so warmly?”
― Kathleen E. Woodiwiss, quote from The Wolf and the Dove

― Kathleen E. Woodiwiss, quote from The Wolf and the Dove

― John Ajvide Lindqvist, quote from Harbor

“هناك طريقتان لرؤية المدن، الأولى الخاصة بالسائح الأجنبي الذي وصل حديثاً، والذي ينظر إلى البنايات والأنصبة التذكارية والطرق الواسعة والآفاق من الخارج. هناك أيضا النظرة الداخلية، مدينة الغرف التي فيها نمنا والممرات ودور السينما والفصول الدراسية القديمة، المدينة المكونة من الروائح والأضواء والألوان التي تشكل أغلى ذكرياتنا. وبالنسبة لهؤلاء الذين يرونها من الخارج، يمكن أن تبدو مدينة ما مشابهة كثيراً لأخرى، ولكن الذاكرة الجماعية لمدينة ما هي روحها، وأطلالها هي الشاهد الأكثر بلاغة على تلك الروح.”
― Orhan Pamuk, quote from Other Colors: Essays and A Story

“What was it about the Draven brothers that had you doing anything they wished of you. It wasn't just their voice,it was everything, every tiny little supernatural molecule they possessed had you jumping to whatever beat they set. It was their sheer strength. Their inbuilt authority and their never ending power to use at will. And I was hooked like a junkie.”
― quote from The Triple Goddess

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.
