Hello there beautiful friends,
I am coming back with a new Top Ten Tuesday. TTT is a fun meme that was created and hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, which is now hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. Today is “Favourite Book Quotes” and let me tell you, it’ll be hard for me to pick only ten of them! Before starting, just quick reminder, having quoted a book here doesn’t mean that the book was great or even good, nor that I gave it a good rating, just that while reading that specific quote I felt something deep inside of me. Be informed that they are in no particular order and that all of them are taken from finished copies.
Stephen Chbosky – The Perks of Being a Wallflower
“We accept the love we think we deserve.”
Marie Lu – The Young Elite
“Be true to yourself. But that’s something everyone says and no one means. No one wants you to be yourself. They want you to be the version of yourself that they like.”
Harper Lee – To Kill a Mockingbird
“Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing.”
John Green – The Fault in Our Stars
“You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world… but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices..”
Jane Austen – Pride and Prejudice
“I could easily forgive his pride if he had not mortified mine..”
Sarah J. Maas – A Court of Mist and Fury
“There are good days and hard days for me – even now. Don’t let the hard days win.”
Katja Millay – The Sea of Tranquility
“When you look at her what do you feel?… Joy, fear, frustration, longing, friendship, anger, need, despair, love, lust?”
“Yes.”
“Yes, what?”
“All of it.”
Brigid Kemmerer – A Heart so Fierce and Broken
“Choices are never easy. There are good and bad options, but the most dangerous is to not make any choice at all.”
Taylor Jenkins Reid – The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo
“People think that intimacy is about sex. But intimacy is about truth. When you realize you can tell someone your truth, when you can show yourself to them, when you stand in front of them bare and their response is ‘you’re safe with me’- that’s intimacy.”
Tahereh Mafi – A Very Large Expanse of Sea
“If the decision you’ve made has brought you closer to humanity, then you’ve done the right thing.”
What do you think about those quotes?
Any of your favourite here?
I have a quote from The Perks of Being a Wallflower tattooed on my upper arm. “So this is my life. And I want you to know that I am both happy and sad and I’m still trying to figure out how that could be. “
