This week's theme: QUOTES FROM or ABOUT BOOKS.
I often jot down favorite quotes from books I'm reading, and I love quotes about books and reading, too. So this week's TTT was right up my alley. Here a few recent favs:
"No one likes third-act breakups."
--Sarah Monzen, Hearts in Circulation
"The difference between a lady and a flower girl is not how she behaves, but how she's treated."
--George Bernard Shaw, Pygmalion
"In the book of life, everyone has chapters they don't like reading out loud."
--Heather Webber, South of the Buttonwood Tree
"Devouring books came as naturally to us as breathing."
--Haruki Murakami, Sputnik Sweetheart
"I consume romance novels for the same reason I watch birds--for the sparks of joy, because I prefer to be happy when the world gives us so many reasons to be sad."
--Sarah T. Dubbs, Birding With Benefits
"Adventures are measured in moments and memories, not minutes."
--Savannah Scott, Are We There Yet?
"It's all about writing the very best story of your life. Not just how you live it--but how you choose to tell it."
--Katherine Center, The Rom-Commers
Happy Reading!

ReplyDeleteI shall definitely follow Katherine Center's advice!
ReplyDeleteI love these quotes! This is such a fun list! :D
ReplyDeleteExcellent choices! I don't really read romance novels as a rule (maybe I should!) but the Dubbs quote especially spoke to me. "Sparks of joy" when all around us are so many reasons to be sad.
ReplyDeleteLove the quotes you shared! Thanks!
ReplyDelete"In the book of life, everyone has chapters they don't like reading out loud." Super profound. Everyone feels shame or embarrassment about aspects of their life.
ReplyDeleteThese are all great, especially the last one.
ReplyDeleteThese are great, and that's right, Sarah, we DON'T like 3rd act break-ups!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great prompt! I especially liked the one from Heather Webber.
ReplyDeleteThese are all awesome, Lark. I wish I kept track of quotes, but I'm glad others do so that I can read them again and again.
ReplyDelete"Adventures are measured in moments and memories, not minutes."
ReplyDeleteAmen
These are terrific! I especially love: "I consume romance novels for the same reason I watch birds--for the sparks of joy, because I prefer to be happy when the world gives us so many reasons to be sad."
ReplyDeleteLove these quotes, Lark. I especially relate to Heather Webber's and Savannah Scott's words. Thanks for sharing.
