Favorite Book Quotes
I don't know...
I don't know about all of you people, but I really love quotes. In my basement, I have a large bulletin board that I post all my favorite quotes (and stuff like that) on. I was thinking that we could all start posting quotes that we like alot. They can be funny, or inspiring, serious, anything you want...
To start it off, here's mine:
"Just remember that sometimes, the way you think about a person isn't the way they actually are." -John Green (of course:)

It's not really a book quote but..
"Be not afraid of greatness. Some achieve greatness, some are born great, and some have greatness thrust upon them."
-William Shakespeare (don't judge I'm obsessed with Shakespeare)
I don't know if this is from a book either, but...
"Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less."
-C.S. Lewis
These are book qoutes...
"Farewell, avoid roasted cabbage, don't eat earwax, and look on the bright side of life."
-Christofer Paolini, Eragon
"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
-Frank Herbet, Dune
Sorry this is so long but I had sooo many quotes to put up.

"I was being ironic. Or is it sarcastic? I can never remember."
"Ironic is smarter, so you're probably being sarcastic."
-Quote from The Screaming Staircase by Jonathan Stroud. Great book.
Also, one from The Bartemeaus Trilogy (same author);
"One magician demanded I show him an image of the love of his life. I rustled up a mirror."
