“Yes. I tried to use the same technique with you. I didn’t want to pass out.”
― Lynsay Sands, quote from Vampire Most Wanted
“Divine had meant to try to shut her mind off from his sooner than she had, but had got wrapped up in the passion she’d so carefully stirred to life in them both and left it just that one second or two too long. Instead of remaining conscious as she’d hoped, she’d ended up passing out with him.”
― Lynsay Sands, quote from Vampire Most Wanted
“Aegle was suffering some mortal bug”
― Lynsay Sands, quote from Vampire Most Wanted
“so little time to enjoy all that life and the world had to offer. Why would they waste even a moment of their precious time on someone who didn’t appreciate and treat them well?”
― Lynsay Sands, quote from Vampire Most Wanted
“She’d found it was always best to live in the here and now rather than waste time with past events or what she couldn’t have and what could have been. Mind you, living in the here and now wasn’t always easy, but she did her best.”

“The sharks had, in fact, remained a constant presence throughout the men's ordeal, even during the daylight hours. Not long after [navy pilot] Gwinn showed up, a massive shark attack--involving an estimated thirty fish--had, in about fifteen minutes, taken some sixty boys perched on a floater net.”

“We are all looking for a place in life, somewhere we fit. It’s not a place that changes who we are or what we do – perhaps it shapes us, makes us better, makes us more - but mostly it shelters us with a sense of peace, a sense that whatever we do, whoever we are, we’re not alone in it.
I was lucky enough to find that place, when I was sixteen years old.”
― Samantha Young, quote from Into the Deep
“إن شخصًا عاقًلا سيشعر دائمًا، وسط نقاش، بالتبسيط، وستكون رغبته الوحيدة القيام بتشطيبات ووضع علامات نجمية على بعض الكلمات وملاحظات في أسفل الصفحة وتعليقات في نهاية المخطوطة ليعبر حقًا عن فكره. ولكن في نقاش يجري في ركن من ممر، أو أثناء عشاء أو على صفحات صحيفة، قلما يكون ذلك ممكنًا: فالموضوع ليس موضوع قسوة وموضوعية وتجرد ونزاهة. الفضيلة هي عقبلة بلاغية وهي غير ناجعة في جدل. بعض العقول النيرة، التي ترى الخواء الضروري لكل نقاش، اختارت أن تتخابث وتوسوس بالتعقيد عبر المفارقة والدعابة المواربة. لما لا؟ ففي النهاية هذه وسيلة نجاة.”

“His eyes search mine, more serious than his tone would indicate, and I know he’s looking to see whether or not I’m falling apart. He doesn’t need to.”

“before you start a company, get the basics right. Spend a lot of time and money on quality. If that’s taken care of, people will automatically tell their friends about it and you will not have to end up spending lakhs on marketing. There’s nothing better than word of mouth when it comes to spreading the word. Trust me. Mal had just stepped out for a break and”

The Crow RoadBookQuoters 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.
