“These were the names she whispered in the dark.
These were the pieces she brought back into place.
These were the wolves she rode to war.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“Once upon a different time, there was a girl who lived in a kingdom of death. Wolves howled up her arm. A whole pack of them--made of tattoo ink and pain, memory and loss. It was the only thing about her that ever stayed the same.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“The wolves of war are gathering. They sing a song of rotten bones.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“I'm tired of fixing things that always break.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“Her self-reflection was no reflection at all. It was a shattered mirror. Something she had to piece together, over and over again. Memory by memory. Loss by loss. Wolf by wolf.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“So she traced and she named. She hurt and she raged. She remembered.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“The world was not just moving. It was alive.
And it was ready to fight.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“The world is wrong. I'm just doing my part to fix it.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“People were more than crooked type and swastika-stamped documents. No number of bullet points and biography facts could pin the soul behind the eyes.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“Even at their most basic function, needles do two things: They give and they take away.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“There would be no dressing up as a maid. No cyanide slipped into his crystal glass of mineral water. The Fuhrer’s death was to be a loud, screaming thing. A broadcast of blood over the Reichssender.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“Hope. A strange word. In her past, it had been a light, wispy thing. Crushed as easily as a finger under a guard's boot. But now...now hope weighed so much, as if the Colosseum itself had collapsed on top of her. Mortar and suffering. Brick and time.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“The guard grabbed Yael's hand, snapped his pen across her skin in two quick strikes. X marks the survivor.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“She'd been trained to survive many things: starvation and bullet wounds. Winter nights and scouring sun. Double-tied knots and interrogations at knifepoint. But this? A boy's lips on hers. Moving and melding. Soft and strength, velvet and iron. Opposite elements that tugged and tor Yael from the inside. Feelings bloomed, hot and warm. Deep and dark.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“The moreness of him was beginning to show. The way ruins were excavated by an archaeologist. Brushstroke by brushstroke. Bit by bit.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“Yael was a cobweb version, composed of gaps and strings and fragile nothings.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“Yes, Luka Löwe was a National Socialist, but he was different on the inside.”
― Ryan Graudin, quote from Wolf by Wolf
“A different voice slid through the speakers now--his voice. The one that raised armies, toppled kingdoms. The one that sent the entire stadium into a hush. Even the raindrops hung back in the sky; the air cleared into a spitting drizzle." p65”

“You have to drive! You think I trust that big blue knucklehead to get us there?”
― Matt Myklusch, quote from Jack Blank and the Imagine Nation
“I sometimes try to imagine what would have happened if we’d known the bonobo first and the chimpanzee only later—or not at all. The discussion about human evolution might not revolve as much around violence, warfare and male dominance, but rather around sexuality, empathy, caring and cooperation. What a different intellectual landscape we would occupy!”
― Frans de Waal, quote from Our Inner Ape: A Leading Primatologist Explains Why We are Who We Are
“FEED Your Brain Now that you have a better idea of how the brain works, let’s focus on a method of rewiring your brain that involves the following four steps: • Focus • Effort • Effortlessness • Determination”

“Mary?” The sound of a grunt came from the far corner, jolting fear through him. It wasn’t feminine. “Damn,” his uncle said from across the room. “What the hell is this? We need light.” Solomon’s breaths blasted as hurried along the wall to where she kept the lantern above the fireplace. Putting his gun on the ledge, he located the matches. “Jesus,” his uncle whispered. “Don’t put on a light!” The match hissed and flared and Solomon turned just as his father flew at him and blew it out. “Something’s happened here,” his dad barely said even as Solomon stared into the returning darkness. His eyes were wide with the horror of what he’d seen in those few seconds before the light vanished. Blood. So much blood. “Christ,”

SoldBookQuoters 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.
