Q: Activity: Favorite Literary Quotes:



A:  Ok so I am not a person who remembers quotes, books, movies, famous leaders... I just don't keep them in my brain. If I did I wouldn't have as much room to read so they go in... I enjoy them... They leave. I looked some up from my favorite books or really good ones I read lately... They caught my attention.... so here goes.


1. “Good night, Seth."
"So you're running again, then?" One of his boots thudded on the floor.
"I'm not running."
The other boot hit the floor. "Really?"
"Really. It's just—" She stopped; she didn't have anything that would finish that sentence and be honest.
"Maybe you should slow down, so I can catch you." He paused, waiting.”
Melissa Marr, Wicked Lovely

2. “...called nine-one-one," Howie was saying, "and then I heard something in the alleyway, so I went back there and" --Howie coughed-- "and valiantly attacked his knife with my guts, to no avail."

"Did you get a good look at him? Could you describe him?"

Howie smiled wanly. "Yeah. He was about yay long" --he held up his hands, four inches apart-- "thin, made of steel. Pointy. Sharp.”
Barry Lyga, I Hunt Killers


3.“Mom, I have to go. I think this Matt character is here."
"Are you sure it's him?"
Julie peered into the car as the window lowered. "I see a maniacal-looking guy with brightly-colored candy in one hand, and he's waving a sickle in the other. Oh! He's beckoning me to the car. This must be my ride.”
Jessica Park, Flat-Out Love


4.“I think people immediately assumed I was yours so they stayed far away.' He met my eyes and smiled. 'I was. I am.' He leaned forward and brushed his lips to mine. 'Yours.” ― Amy Tintera, Reboot


5.“Love is not the absence of logicbut logic examined and recalculated
heated and curved to fit
inside the contours of the heart”
Tammara Webber, Easy


6.“It's Christmas! You just got your Hogwarts acceptance letter, a copy of Action Comics #1, and a brand new car that runs on water!” ― Leah Rae Miller, The Summer I Became a Nerd
