Book Quotes That Stayed With Me | Lifestyle

If you are no stranger to my blog, you'll know that I'm a huge bookworm. I like to read entire books in one day and often stay up until 3 in the morning because I simply cannot put the book I'm reading down.
 I'm serious about my books - so much that I often share my opinions on my latest read in a series I call "Recent Reads" - if you're interested in reading a little about the last book I finished, you can check that out here

And because I've always loved books ever since I was a kid, I've accumulated quite a few favorite quotes from all the books that I've read . On top of that, I'm also a person for lists and organizing everything, and because I like to keep a book with all of my favorite quotes anyways, I decided to share some of my favorite book quotes with you guys!


1. "It's not what you take, it's what you give." - Jennifer Niven, All the Bright Places

2. "We are all the pieces of what we remember. We hold in ourselves the hopes and fears of those who love us. As long as there is love and memory, there is no true loss." - Cassandra Clare, City of Heavenly Fire

3. "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light."    - J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

4. "The darkest minds tend to hide behind the most unlikely faces." - Alexandra Bracken, The Darkest Minds

5. "If a hiker gets lost in the mountains, people will coordinate a search. If a train crashes, people will line up to give blood. If an earthquake levels a city, people all over the world will send emergency supplies. This is so fundamentally human that it's found in every culture, without exception. Yes, there are assholes who just don't care, but they're massively outnumbered by the people who do."       - Andy Weir, The Martian

6. "It's always the fear of looking stupid that keeps you from being awesome." - Kiera Cass, The Selection

7. "Usually, I'm remarkably good natured. Try me on a day that doesn't end end in y." - Cassandra Clare, City of Ashes

8. "Some things you can never leave behind. They don't belong to the past. They belong to you."        - Rick Yancey, The Fifth Wave

9. "It takes ten times as long to pull yourself together as it does to fall apart." - Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay

10. "If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself." - Rick Riordan, The Lighting Thief

11. "It's painful to see that people prefer a bad guy who looks like an angel to a good guy who looks like a demon." - Susan Ee, World After

12. "The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive." - John Green, Looking For Alaska

13. "Ulitmately, the universe doesn't care about us. Time doesn't care about us. That's why we have to care for each other." - David Leviathan, Every Day

14. "When you love someone, they become part of who you are. They're in everything you do. They're in the air you breathe and the water you drink and the blood in your veins. Their touch stays on your skin and their voice stays in your ear and their thoughts stay in your mind. You know their dreams because their nightmares pierce your heart and their good dreams are your dreams, too. And you don't think they're perfect, but you know their flaws, and the shadows of all their secrets, and they don't frighten you away - in fact, you love them more for them." - Lady Midnight, Cassandra Clare

15. "It's pointless to believe what you see, if you only see what you believe." - Marie Lu, The Young Elites.
