Here is a place to post all your favourite quotes from your favourite books, or just significant or nice quotes from books that you are reading at the moment.

I shall start off with one from The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver.
It was a quote from a character called Adah who is one of a set of twins, but was crippled in the womb, and does not speak at all (the chapters from each of the characters are mostly a stream of their thoughts narrating themselves).

Quote:
"But are there books, books there are! Rattling words on the page calling my eyes to dance with them."

What a beautiful and perfect quote. I would love to read some of yours 3nodding

Oh gawd, so many quotes. XD I keep meaning to write all my favorite ones down...

But one of my favorite quotes is from Stephen King's Wizard and Glass:

"If you love me, then love me."

"Huh" I say. "In my world India and China fought on the side of the Allies."
"Yeah?" says Charlie. "Who won?"
"The Canadians, of course. I mean, they are the largest and most powerful country in the world."
"Canada won WWII?"
"Well the Allies won, but the couldn't have done it without the Great White North. My uncle was in the Royal Brigade of Mounted Beavers."
"The parallels between are worlds are fascinating. What was the war fought over? Land? Resources?"
"Definitely resources. Mostly maple syrup."
