I may or may not have spent two hours this morning reading through a bunch of Top Ten posts. I LOVE quotes. And I LOVE lists (I feel like I have been saying that a lot lately) so of course, lists of quotes are my cup of tea!
After reading through so many quotes I decided I needed to participate this week! Unfortunately I don’t already have a list of favorite quotes (I know shocking!) so I will be using google to find cool book quotes! Moving forward I am going to attempt to start saving quotes, but I don’t have high hopes at succeeding. If I had decided to write this post earlier I could have stolen my favorites from other people’s lists, but I didn’t think about it till it was too late. (Hindsight is 20-20)
#1
“Never give up on your dreams, and never let anyone tell you that what you love is inconsequential or useless or a waste of time.”
― Ashley Poston, Geekerella
#2
“I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun.”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
#3
“IN THE PANTHEON of Comforting Smells, I ranked McDonald’s french fry grease in the top five. Maybe”
― Sarah Kuhn, Heroine Complex
#4
“When fancy strikes, a man gets this notion in his mind that everything a woman does is for him.”
― Tricia Levenseller, Daughter of the Pirate King
#5
“It must be a marvelous thing to feel so sure, to be able to meet someone’s eyes and not look away.”
― Shannon Hale, Princess Academy
#6
“Love is many things none of them logical.”
― William Goldman, The Princess Bride
#7
“It’s not enough to be friendly. You have to be a friend.”
― R.J. Palacio, Wonder
#8
“I’m a geeky badass, and I’m loving it.”
― Leah Rae Miller, The Summer I Became a Nerd
#9
“She’d remembered the wrong things, and forgotten too much. She’d remembered how to kill and how to hate, and she’d forgotten how to grow.”
― Naomi Novik, Uprooted
#10
“In new situations, all the trickiest rules are the ones nobody bothers to explain to you. (And the ones you can’t Google.)”
― Rainbow Rowell, Fangirl
In order to find quotes I picked some of my favorite books and then googled quotes from them and picked one quote from each book. This was super hard because some books had 5 or 6 quotes I wanted to choose!
Thanks for reading! What is your favorite quote? Have you read any of these books?
Don’t forget to enter my giveaway!!
The difficulty is in narrowing down your quotes when there are so many to choose from.
I love your list.

“I wanted to tell them that I never knew that people like Dante existed in the world, people who looked at the stars, and knew the mysteries of water, and knew enough to know that birds belonged to the heavens and weren’t meant to be shot down from their graceful flights by mean and stupid boys.”
This one’s my favorite! It’s from Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Sáenz 💕 it’s cool you even found ten quotes to post because I also personally haven’t collected quotes too 😂

All quotes from P&P are the best 😉 haha I have added a bunch of books because of this TTT too! I have been particularly loving on Geekerella right now, so if you like those kinds of books I would definitely add that one! (Though they are all really good)
