Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and
the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that one of their
bloggers answer. Everyone is welcome to join! All they ask is that you
link back to The Broke and the Bookish on your own Top Ten Tuesday post AND add
your name to the Linky widget so that everyone can check out other bloggers
lists! It’s super fun and a great way to meet other bloggers.
Today’s top ten is “Book
Quotes.” Here are my all time favorites. Some of them make me crack up and others are just good sense. ^_^ What are yours?
1. “I wasn't being a
git. I wasn't even being a twat, or a wanker, or any of your other bleeding
Briticisms-” ― Stephanie Perkins, Anna and the French Kiss
2. “It's all right to
love someone who doesn't love you back, as long as they're worth you loving
them. As long as they deserve it.” ― Cassandra
Clare, Clockwork Angel
3.
“Why
are Americans so fascinated by Ireland?” Keith asked... “you all think you’re
Irish. What’s the appeal? Do you like the accent more? Is it all the magical
rocks? Oh, look, a leprechaun...” ― Maureen
Johnson, The Last Little BlueEnvelope
4.
“Tristan
was silent for a few moments, looking at the leaves before them. "Life isn’t
about the past and the future. Its about today." He paused. "Its
about five minutes from now and two seconds ago. Its moments, you know? Not
years. Years arent what define us.” ― Chelsea
Fine, Anew
6.
“What
the fuck do you want?" After a pause, he said in a firm voice, "This
is Dylan Keeley, the guy who would've killed to trade places with you until
five minutes ago." He met my eyes. "She doesn't want to talk to you.
Now why don't you go back to screwing your prom queen and let me do the same.” ― Jeri
Smith-Ready, Shift
7.
“This
isn't a crush, it's obsession. You are never not in my thoughts. Your scent
carries across a room and paralyzes me with longing. I don't want to hold your
hand. Part of me wants to set you on fire and hold you while the flame consumes
us both, to eat your heart so I know that only I possess it entirely.” ― Gwen
Hayes, Falling Under
8.
“I care," he said in a
trembling voice. "I care so much that I do not know how to tell you
without it seeming inconsequential compared to how I feel. Even if I am distant
at times and seem as if I do not want to be with you, it is only because this
scares me, too.” ― Aimee Carter, The Goddess Test
10.
“Do
not be deceived by the politeness of the fey. Fey are almost always polite.
This does not mean they will not happily remove your head.” ― Julie
Kagawa, The Iron Knight
Great quotes, Touya!!!
