I hear voices in my mind and you’re worried that you’re the freak.
Edward Cullen, Twilight
I’d rather know what you’re thinking — even if what you’re thinking is insane.
Edward Cullen, Twilight
About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was part of him — and I didn’t know how potent that part might be — that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
Bella Swan, Twilight
I’ll be the first to admit that I have no experience with relationships. But it just seems logical… a man and woman have to be somewhat equal… as in, one of them can’t always be swooping in and saving the other one. They have to save each other equally.
Bella Swan, Twilight
"make that weight your bitch!"
Kate Andrews - Magic Burns.
Like everything in life, I just had to decide what to do with what I was given.
Carlisle Cullen, New Moon
The waves of pain that had only lapped at me before now reared high up and washed over my head, pulling me under. I did not resurface.
Bella Swan, New Moon
Forbidden to remember, terrified to forget; it was a hard line to walk.
Bella Swan, New Moon
It didn’t feel like the pain had weakened over time, rather that I’d grown strong enough to bear it.
Bella Swan, New Moon
I wondered how long this could last. Maybe someday, years from now—if the pain would just decrease to the point where I could bear it—I would be able to look back on those few short months that would always be the best of my life. And, if it were possible that the pain would ever soften enough to allow me to do that, I was sure that I would feel grateful for as much time as he’d given me. More than I’d asked for, more than I’d deserved. Maybe someday I’d be able to see it that way.
Bella Swan, New Moon
It’s hard to believe I’m two years older than you. You make me feel like a dwarf.
Bella Swan, New Moon
I was like a lost moon—my planet destroyed in some cataclysmic, disaster-movie scenario of desolation—that continued, nevertheless, to circle in a tight little orbit around the empty space left behind, ignoring the laws of gravity.
Bella Swan, New Moon
One thing I truly knew—knew it in the pit of my stomach, in the center of my bones, knew it from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet, knew it deep in my empty chest—was how love gave someone the power to break you.
Bella Swan, New Moon
It was like someone had died—like I had died. Because it had been more than just losing the truest of true loves, as if that were not enough to kill anyone. It was also losing a whole future, a whole family—the whole life that I’d chosen…
Bella Swan, New Moon
The prince was never coming back to kiss me awake from my enchanted sleep. I was not a princess, after all. So what was the fairy-tale protocol for other kisses? The mundane kind that didn’t break any spells?
Bella Swan, New Moon
Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars—points of light and reason… And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn’t see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason for anything.
Edward Cullen, New Moon
You already have everything. You have a whole life ahead of you — everything I want. And you’re going to just throw it away. Can’t you see that I’d trade everything I have to be you? You have the choice that I didn’t have, and you’re choosing wrong!
Rosalie Hale, Eclipse
The way he stared at her! It was like a blind man seeing the sun for the first time. Like a collector finding an undiscovered Da Vinci, like a mother looking into the face of her newborn child.
Bella Swan, Eclipse
The right thing isn’t always real obvious. Sometimes the right thing for one person is the wrong thing for someone else. So… good luck figuring that out.
Charlie Swan, Eclipse
How can we be friends, when we love each other like this?
Bella Swan, Eclipse
"you know what I need?"
"What?"
"A distraction."
Isabel and Simon - City of glass.
You’re awfully small to be so hugely irritating.
Edward Cullen, Breaking Dawn
If I don’t have a better sense of equilibrium in my next life, I’m demanding a refund.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn
Hey, do you know what you call a blonde with a brain? A golden retriever.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn
What Do I Look Like? The Wizard Of Oz? You Need A Brain? You Need A Heart? Go Ahead. Take Mine. Take Everything I Have.
Jacob Black, Breaking Dawn
I guess my brain will never work right. At least I’m pretty.
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn
It is your own life, certainly, to spend as you choose.
Tanya, Breaking Dawn
I love you, too, Momma. We’ll always be together.
Renesmee Cullen, Breaking Dawn
"Um, feathers."
Bella Cullen, Breaking Dawn.
I! love! feathers!

"Books should go where they will be most appreciated, and not sit unread, gathering dust on a forgotten shelf, don't you agree?"
"Books are my friends, my companions. They make me laugh and cry and find meaning in life. "

Eragon to Saphira
Christopher Paolini (Brisingr)
Wolf lay still on his back in human form, eyes glistening with rage. Narrow, luminous white ropes lay across his legs, chest, and neck. The killer stood over him, holding a sword that glowed gently, with a pulsating lavender light. A cold chill shot up Aralorn’s back as she recognized the weapon: a souleater.
She shifted into the form of the small but deadly icelynx and leapt. The killer swept aside her rush with his sword arm, but not before she had raked his back with her formidable claws. Pale sword and paler cat feinted back and forth.
He managed to nick her as she leapt at his throat. Her off rear leg became icily numb and folded underneath her, but worse was the strange sucking sensation that consumed her. The sword was alive, and it was hungry

"Until and unless you discover that money is the root of all good, you ask for your own destruction. When money ceases to become the means by which men deal with one another, then men become the tools of other men. Blood, whips and guns--or dollars. Take your choice--there is no other."

"A house can have integrity, just like a person, and just as seldom." Howard Roark Fountainhead Ayn Rand
One pretty woman means fun at the dance. Two pretty women mean trouble in the house. Three pretty women mean run for the hills.
Abel Cauthon
Death comes for us all. We can only chose how to face it when it comes.
Aviendha
Men always believe they are in control of everything around them. When they find out they are not, they think they have failed, instead of learning a simple truth women already know.
Aviendha
If a woman does need a hero, she needs him today, not tomorrow.
Egwene al'Vere
Stopping a man from what he wants to do is like taking a sweet from a child. Sometimes you have to do it, but sometimes it just isn't worth the trouble.

Run when you have to, fight when you must, rest when you can.

I will find the song, or another will find the song, but the song will be sung this year or in a year to come. As it once was, so shall it be again, world without end.
farewell among the Tuatha'an
You can never know everything, and part of what you know is always wrong. Perhaps even the most important part. A portion of wisdom lies in knowing that. A portion of courage lies in going on anyways.
Lan Mandragoran
You have made a place in my heart where I thought there was no room for anything else. You have made flowers grow where I cultivated dust and stones. Remember this, on this journey you insist on making. If you die, I will not survive you long.
Lan Mandragoran, to Nynaeve al'Meara
You are sealed to us now.

Peace favor your sword.
Shienaran warrior's blessing
The Oaths hold us together, a stated set of beliefs that bind us all, a single thread running through every sister, living or dead, back to the first to lay her hands on the Oath Rod. They are what make us Aes Sedai, not saidar.

Often you don't know whether a woman is friend, enemy, or lover until it is too late. Sometimes, she is all three.

The only things known to go faster than ordinary light is monarchy, according to the philosopher Ly Tin Weedle. He reasoned like this: you can't have more
than one king, and tradition demands that there is no gap between kings, so when a king dies the succession must therefore pass to the heir instantaneously.
Presumably, he said, there must be some elementary particles -- kingons, or possibly queons -- that do this job, but of course succession sometimes fails
if, in mid-flight, they strike an anti-particle, or republicon. His ambitious plans to use his discovery to send messages, involving the careful torturing
of a small king in order to modulate the signal, were never fully expanded because, at that point, the bar closed.

The Yen Buddhists are the richest religious sect in the universe. They hold that the accumulation of money is a great evil and a burden to the soul. They

A golden warrior who drove the fiends back and saved the world and said 'Where the gate is, there am I also. I am he that was born of Holy Wood to guard the wild idea.' And they said, 'What must we do to destroy the gate forever?' and he said unto them, 'This you cannot do, for it is not a thing. But I will guard the gate for you.' And they, not having been born yesterday and fearing the cure more than the malody said to him, 'what will you take from us that you will guard the door?' And he grew until he was the height of a tree and said, 'Only your rememberance that I do not sleep. Three times a day will you remember Holy Wood, else the cities of the world will tremble and fall, and you will see the greatest of them all in flames.' And with that the golden man took up his golden sword and went into the hill and stood at the gate forever. And the people said to one another, 'Funny. He looks just like my Uncle Osbert.'

There are a gazillion more that I have liberally plagerized and regularly use. However, of course my mind has now been swept as clean as the newly fallen snow.

"" I want a relationship i can finally sink my teeth into. " - Alexander Sterling. "
"He looked so lost, so soulful, so lonely. I wanted him to kiss me now. I wanted to let him know I was his for all eternity."
Raven
"The hunt isn't sustaining me. It's flowing blood that I really crave. The sweet taste of red succulent liquid mixing with the salt of my beloved as it drips and dances on his flesh. To know that someone will ache for me as much as I hunger for him and eternally satiate each other. I want someone to satisfy my hunger forever."
Luna
Quotes taken from the Vampire Kisses series.
"I tilted my head and tossed my hair back, baring my neck. I saw her hesitate, but the sight of my
neck and what it offered proved too powerful. A hungry expression crossed her face, and her lips parted
slightly, exposing the fangs she normally kept hidden while living among humans. Those fangs contrasted
oddly with the rest of her features. With her pretty face and pale blond hair, she looked more like an angel than
a vampire. As her teeth neared my bare skin, I felt my heart race with a mix of fear and anticipation. I always
hated feeling the latter, but it was nothing I could help, a weakness I couldn't shake. Her fangs bit into me,
hard, and I cried out at the brief flare of pain. Then it faded, replaced by a wonderful, golden joy that spread
through my body. It was better than any of the times I'd been drunk or high. Better than sex--or so I imagined,
since I'd never done it. It was a blanket of pure, refined pleasure, wrapping me up and promising everything
would be right in the world. On and on it went. The chemicals in her saliva triggered an endorphin rush, and I
lost track of the world, lost track of who I was."

"The spell. Victor said you had to want me... to care about me... for it to work." When he didn't say anything, I tried to grip his shirt, but my fingers were too weak. "Did you? Did you want me?"
His words came out thickly. "Yes, Roza. I did want you. I still do. I wish... we could be together."
"Then why did you lie to me?"
We reached the clinic, and he managed to open the door while still holding me. As soon as he stepped inside, he began yelling for help.
"Why did you lie?" I murmured again.
Still holding me in his arms, he looked down at me. I could hear voices and footsteps getting closer.
"Because we can't be together."
"Because of the age thing, right?" I asked. "Because you're my mentor?"
His fingertip gently wiped away a tear that had escaped down my cheek. "That's part of it," he said. "But also... well, you and I will both be Lissa's gaurdians someday. I need to protect her at all cost. If a pack of Strogoi come, I need to throw my body between them and her."
I know that. Of course that's what you have to do." The black sparkles were dancing in front of my eyes again. I was fading out.
"No. If I let myself love you, I won't throw myself in front of her. I'll throw myself in front of you."

Blood Promise
Because lately, my life really did seem like it was on the precipice of being a dream. There were days I thought I’d wake up and discover that recent events in my life hadn’t actually happened. Surely I must be a princess in an enchanted sleep. Any day now, this dream-no, nightmare would end, and I’d get my prince and happy ending.
Life. Death. Destroy. Eternal. I knew enough about all this to string together the meaning. I would have bet good money “resurrection” was in there too. I sighed, wishing it were truly that easy to vanquish death and bring back those we loved.
Love wasn’t a fling in a back room at a party. It was something you lived and died for.
The rush from a Strigoi bite was greater than that of a Moroi’s. It was like being in love for the first time, filled with that all consuming, joyous feeling.
“Your love was too strong. Our love was too strong. Not even the undead could keep us apart.”
“Please,” he begged. There was a plaintive note to his voice, one that startled me. It twisted my heart. It reminded me too much of the living Dimitri, the one who wasn’t a monster. The one who’d cared for me and loved me, who’d believed in me and made love to me. This Dimitri, the one who was none of those things, took two careful steps forward, then stopped again. “We need to be together.”
""Stop fighting me!" he said, trying to pull on the arm he held.
He was in a precarious position himself,straddling the rail as he tried to lean over far enough so that I wasn't in total danger of falling again.
See, here's the thing. In that moment before I let go, I really had been contemplating my death. I'd come to terms with it and accepted it. I also, however, had known Dimitri might do something exactly like this. He was just that fast and that good. That was why I was holding my stake in the hand that was dangling free.
I looked him in the eye, "I will always love you."
Then plunged the stake into his chest.
It wasn't as precise a blow as I would have liked, not with the skilled way he was dodging. I struggled to get the stake in deep enough to his heart,unsure if I could do it from this angle. Then, his struggles stopped. His eyes stared at me, stunned, and his lips parted, almost into a smile, albeit a grisly and pained one.
"That's what I was supposed to say..." he gasped out.
Those were his last words."
“Do you believe in fairy tales?” I asked, looking up into her eyes.
I am haunted by humans.
In the darkness of my dark-beating heart, I know.
The question is, what color will everything be at that moment when I come for you.
Markus Zusak - The book thief
reality can go take a flying fuck at a rolling doughnut.
There is no comfort without pain, thus we define salvation through suffering.

I hate things all fiction; there should always be some foundation of fact.
My soul do not seek eternal life but exhaust in the realm of the possible.

Yes, I know they're songs not books, but I like the quotes and I listen to music more than I read.
Life sucks and then you die.
"Yellow is my shorthand for real, for true, for beauty. Since the yellow comes from living, the constant working makes creating that color impossible. What could I share with others when my truths were becoming more and more unreal? I fell in love - with a woman - yellow, a life-changing level of love, and then I forced myself to deny it. I reasoned with myself - I won't tell but I won't hide. And Kel came places with me and the press knew and it was printed but I never commented. I thought that was okay, but it wasn't, and the yellow we had together lost something by never being let out."
~ Rosie O'Donnell, Celebrity Detox (The Fame Game)
"If a person brings so much courage into the world that the world must kill him to break him, so of course it kills him. The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those it cannot break it will kill. It kills the very good, the very gentle, and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these things the world will kill you too but there will be no special hurry."--A Farewell to Arms, Ernest Hemingway
Everybody is a book of blood; wherever we're opened, we're red.
Clive Barker - books of blood vol. 1
"The problem with a highly magical artifact such as the Amulet of Samarkand is that it has a distinct pulsating aura that attracts attention like a naked man at a funeral."
Bartimaeus, The Amulet of Samarkand
If this gets anymore cloying I think I'll throw up!
Beldin, Magician's Gambit.
"I just don't give a bloody damn."--James Malory, Gentle Rogue
god i have so many the book that comes to mind for quotes the notebook.
You have the emotional range of a teaspoon
HP and the order of the phoenix
I'n going to bed before either one of you gets any more ideas that'll get us killed, or worse, expelled
Those three, Avada Kedavra, Imperius and Cruciatus are known as the Unforgivable Curses. The use of any one of them on a fellow human being is enough to earn a life sentence in Azkaban.
Harry Potter and the Gobblet of Fire.
Angelic Sookie, vision of love and beauty, I am prostrate that the wicked evil
maenad violated your smooth and voluptuous body, in an attempt to deliver a
message to me.
— Living Dead in Dallas
I’ll bet you are a treat, naked.
— Living Dead in Dallas
Eric: You’re not cleverly using this as an excuse to make out with me?
Sookie: I’m not that clever, Eric.
Eric: I think you deceive yourself, Sookie.
— Living Dead in Dallas
Sookie, relax. I have you.
— Living Dead in Dallas
Sookie, my little bullet-sucker.
— Living Dead in Dallas
Sookie: Eric, what are you doing here?
Eric: Snuggling.
— Club Dead
I don’t enjoy seeing you scared of me. I have always been very fond of you. Plus, I
want to f*** you.
— Club Dead
I’m trying to save my own life, and yours, you stupid woman.
— Club Dead
Let go… No, not of me. You can hold on to me as long as you want. Let go of the
pain, Sookie.
— Club Dead
I thought I’d come provide moral support. And, of course, if you need me to clean
you of blood… I’d be glad to do it.
— Definitely Dead
Eric: What would you think of a nude calendar? ‘Fangtasia’s Vampire Hunks’ is
what Pam thinks it should be called.
Sookie: Are you gonna be in it?
Eric: Oh, of course. Mr. January.
Sookie: Well, put me down for three. I’ll give one to Arlene and one to Tara. And
I’ll put one up on my own wall.
Eric: If you promise to keep it open to my picture, I’ll give you one for free.
— Dead as a Doornail
Holding you seems very familiar, Sookie.
— Dead as a Doornail
Should I just bite you, and end it all? I would never have to think about you again.
Thinking about you is an annoying habit, and one I want to be rid of. Or should I
start arousing you, and discover if sex with you was really the best I’ve ever had?
— Dead as a Doornail
Eric: If I had known you would be this gorgeous with your clothes off, I would
have tried to do this sooner.
Sookie: You did try to do this sooner, about twenty times.
Eric: Then I have good taste.
— Dead to the World
Did we make love? Did you finally yield to me, Sookie? It’s only a matter of time,
of course.
— Dead to the World
Eric: You are beautiful. You are smart, and you are loyal. You have a sense of
fun and adventure.
Sookie: Cut it out.
Eric: Make me. You have the most beautiful breasts I’ve ever seen. You’re brave.
You’re responsible and hardworking… There. You’re creative, too.
— Dead to the World
We could go back. We could go back to your house. I can stay with you always.
We can know each other’s bodies in every way, night after night. I could love you.
— Dead to the World
When this witch is defeated, I would bring you to my side. I will share everything I
have with you. Every vampire who owes me fealty will honor you.
— Dead to the World
When you smell like that, I just want to f*** you and bite you and rub myself all
over you.
— From Dead to Worse
Sitting here on your bed, smelling your scent. Sookie… I remember everything.
— From Dead to Worse
I can’t believe I felt something so strongly and was so happy for the first time in
hundreds of years.
— From Dead to Worse
Eric: I lay in front of your fire and talked to you about your life.
Sookie: Uh. Yeah. We did that.
Eric: I remember our shower together.
Sookie: We did that, too.
Eric: We did so many things.
Sookie: Ah… yeah. Okay.
Eric: In fact, if I didn’t have so much to do here in Shreveport, I would be tempted
to visit you all by myself to remind you how much you enjoyed those things.
— From Dead to Worse
Eric: It would hurt you if I died.
Sookie: Yeah, we’re blood bound, yadda yadda yadda.
Eric: Not because of the bond.
— From Dead to Worse
I’ll scoot for now, but I’m going to see you later. And rest assured, my lover, we’ll
come to an understanding.
— From Dead to Worse
Eric: Could it have been random that I found myself running out in the middle of
nowhere… except that nowhere was on the way to your house?
Sookie: Probably the fairy blood.
Eric: No.
— All Together Dead
Sookie: Is this going to fade? It will, right? We won’t always be like this?
Eric: I like being like this. You’ll like it, too.
— All Together Dead
Eric: Bite me.
Sookie: Why? You said you already gave me some.
Eric: Because it makes me feel good. Just… for that.
— Dead and Gone
The curse contained within the witch, the curse that activated when Clancy killed
her… it was that I would be close to my heart’s desire without ever realizing it.
— Dead and Gone
Eric: I’m very proud of you, you hear me?
Sookie: Why?
Eric: You are still together; you are still a person… you survived and your
personality and soul are intact.
Sookie: I got rescued.
Eric: You would have survived much more.
— Dead and Gone
I always tell you the truth. I may not tell you everything I know, but what I tell you…
it’s true.
— Dead and Gone
Eric: I will never turn you, since you don’t want it.
Sookie: Even if I’m going to die, don’t turn me. I would hate that more than
anything.
Eric: I agree to that. No matter how much I may want to keep you.
— Dead and Gone
Sookie: I hardly wanted to live after…
Eric: But you did live. And they died. And you are mine, and you will be mine. They
will not get you.
— Dead and Gone
“Some night,” he whispered, “there’s going to be nothing else but you and me.”
