My Favorite Books' Quotes

You know I have this weird obsession about books and the beautiful words in it. And since I have no other activity to do... I thought it'd be great to share some of my favorites quotes from books!

So yeah, here we go

1. "My thoughts are stars I can't fathom into constellation" -The Fault in Our Stars by John Green.

Well, its hard for me to write only one amazing quote from John Green's books when in fact, John has plenty of amazing quotes in his books. But then, I think this one is my favorite. I think the quote somehow reflects how my brain works. I have this amazing wonderful ideas inside my head BUT I don't know how to put them into words, into sentences. I am a shitty writer but I want to be an author. That's the problem but well......:S

2. "I know these will all be stories someday. And our pictures will become old photographs. We'll all become somebody's mom or dad. But right now, these moments are not stories. This is happening... This one moment when you know you're not a sad story. You are alive" -The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.

Anyway how do you spell Chbosky like is it boskee or che-bos-kee or what? I never figured it out. You see this is one long quote, but it's beautiful. It tells us how we feel when we're happy. But, we cannot stay in those happy moments forever, because it will be memories someday. But right now, it's happening. And we should enjoy it while it lasts. And we need not to worry about the futures because what's matter is what's happening now.

3. "So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past" The Great Gatsby by Scott Fitzgerald.

Honestly, I don't really know what the quote means. It's from an old literature book (not really old but yeah it's old for me). But the quote is beautiful and I love it. All I can take from this quote is that our past will define what we are now and what we will be in the future. And that we all humans, are tend to mourn over the past, we do not know how to let go. So instead of going forward, we are all going backward. Well, I'm not really sure, but that was what my brain thought when I read the quote so yeah it's my opinion.

So yeah, I think that's all. I still have a lot of favorite quotes but I can't remember them all and I'm too lazy to pick up my books and search.

Farewell for now! ;D
