"Bouger has all the talent for wizarding of your typical hamburger. Without cheese."
I really do enjoy all the witty comments Eric makes

I also like: ""I learn something new every day. Usually by falling flat on my face when I try it."
And: "I would have to be an ethical bloodsucking fiend of darkness!"
Those are probably three of my favorites right there. There's a lot more I liked as well though.

I agree with you! My favorite quote is "I would have to be an ethical blood-sicking fiend of darkness."Randomgold wrote:I'm kind of surprised nobody here went for this one yet: "To not be able to read is almost like being blind. It closes off not just a whole world of possibilities, but several worlds of possibility, impossibility, fantasy, and fiction." It's not my favorite, but it's up there.

"That was the purpose of my kind: to be the doorway out of life when it was time to go."
I liked that quote because it made me think of vampires in a different light.

It is a great quote!ellieonline03 wrote:I loved what Hellas said when they were talking about telling their people about Eric being a Nightlord. She said, "Wonder and fear breeds suspicion and mistrust." I think it applies to normal people as well, not just nightlords or fictitious beings.

Quote: “What else is love, but to give someone else happiness when you know your own is impossible?”
I find this true for many people at times in life when you sacrifice your happiness for the sake of someone else you care about.

They force the reader to do something beyond just reading. They make them take a moment to take a moment and decipher what is being said. Then, consider whether this is true or believable. While this is all unique to everyone's preference, there was one quote I found very meaningful.

I agree that this can be true, but it is also circumstantial. It is a really good quote, though, and definitely applies to a lot of people and works really well in this book.

"A mind needs a book like a sword need a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge. "
These words were said by Tyrion Lannister from Game of Thrones . I definitely agree with these words.

"I don't have a lot of faith in the milk of human kindness; it's generally been left out too long."
"Pessimists cannot be disappointed. Optimists cannot be pleasantly surprised."
"To not be able to read is almost like being blind. It closes off not just a whole world of possibilities, but several worlds of possibility, impossibility, fantasy, and fiction."
"The world has so much irony in it I'm surprised it doesn't rust"
To list a few!
