Book quotes

Hi everyoneeee. I was sat here procrastinating my studying and thought why not have a thread where we just add random book quotes that we like? I'm censoring any names in case someone wants to read the book and I dont want to ruin it.

"Because the scars are the what everyone seems to see first when they look upon me,"

"I don't think that's the first thing ...... Not before, and defiantly not now"

“For you a thousand times over”- The kite runner

Such a fabulous book, the quote sounds like a love story/romance but the book is so much more beautiful

"Two households both alike in dignity
In fair Verona where we lay our scene
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean."
I actually have memorized this part. and feel free to take a guess as to where that's from

The story was strange, yet I believed him. Keokotah did not lie. What he told me was what he saw, but what is it we see? Is it not often what we expect to see? Or imagine we see? He was frightened, so what part was reality and what part was imagination ? Sakim had taught me to be wary of evidence given by others, for in all evidence there is some interpretation. The eyes see, the mind explains. But does the mind explain correctly ? The mind only has what experience and education have given it, and perhaps that is not enough. because one has seen does not mean one knows.

ahh yes exactly this. your such a star for knowing what they mean. I ment instead of the name just put like some dots or something so we dont get too much of a spolier, but the name of the book can be put down incase anyone wants to read it.

"In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I love and admire you"

"Your family owe me nothing. Much as I respect them, I believe I only thought of you... If your feelings are still what they were last April, tell me so at once. My affections and wishes are unchanged, but one word from you will silence me forever"

"A Small Edition: The Word Commmunist + a large bonfire + a collection of dead letters + the suffering of her mother + the death of her brother = The Fuhrer"

"A Small but Noteworthy Note: I've seen so many young men over the years who think they're running at other young men. They are not. They're running at me"
