“-"Stop"
"I've tried. I can't. These past few days, not knowing if you were okay have been hell."
-"I'm okay."
"I'm not.”
― Rachel Gibson, quote from True Love and Other Disasters
“She took a deep breath and forgot to exhale. She wondered what it would be like if she licked him up one side and down the other.
"What are you thinking?"
She suddenly felt kind of hot and dizzy and accidentally let Layla out.
"That I want to lick your tattoo," she whispered.”
― Rachel Gibson, quote from True Love and Other Disasters
“Ne možeš kontrolirati to tko ce te privuci. A ne možeš ni
kontrolirati koga tvoje srce želi.«”
― Rachel Gibson, quote from True Love and Other Disasters
“»Možete nešto željeti, gospodo Duffy, ali to ne znaci
da cete to i dobiti. Nešto silno željeti nekada jednostavno
nije dovoljno.«”
― Rachel Gibson, quote from True Love and Other Disasters
“»Pratite me do sobe?« upitala je i ne pokušavajuci
prikriti razdražljivost.
»Da.« Ali ni on nije zvucao sretno zbog toga.
»Zašto? Ne morate me pratiti do sobe.«
»Ja sam drag momak.«
Trpko se nasmijala i pogledala ga krajickom oka.
»Ako to stvarno mislite, gadno se varate. Možda su vas
previše puta udarili u glavu.«”
― Rachel Gibson, quote from True Love and Other Disasters
“Ova je veza
osuðena na to da završi slomljenim srcem, ali možda,
bude li oprezna, možda joj nece ukrasti cijelo srce. Bude li
pazila, možda uspije sacuvati barem komadic.”
― Rachel Gibson, quote from True Love and Other Disasters
“White pussy is nothin but trouble.”
― Cormac McCarthy, quote from Child of God
“And suddenly it came to him. That Strawberry Fields garden he'd come from, and the Freedom Tower he'd been thinking of: taken together, didn't they contain the two words that said it all about this city, the two words that really mattered? It seemed to him that they did. Two words: the one an invitation, the other an ideal, an adventure, a necessity. "Imagine" said the garden. "Freedom" said the tower. Imagine freedom. That was the spirit, the message of this city he loved. You really didn't need anything more. Dream it and do it. But first you must dream it.”
― Edward Rutherfurd, quote from New York

“For Sale: Complete set of encylopedias. Never used. Wife knows everything.”
― Paul Zindel, quote from The Pigman
“Your mother brought a strange man to this house once, Katarina. I had hoped it might be a few years before history repeated itself.”
Kat rolled her eyes at the mention of her father. “Uncle Eddie, I brought Hale home ages ago,” she reminded him; but her uncle just shook his head.
“I've known my great-niece's friend. A boyfriend, on the other hand . . . that is a most different matter.”
“Yes, sir,” Hale said. He stood up a little straighter, spoke a little louder.
“You have a powerful family, boy.”
“Yes, sir,” Hale said. “Please don't hold them against me.”
Then Eddie gave a wry smile. “Who says I was talking about them?”
― Ally Carter, quote from Perfect Scoundrels
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.
