In F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'The Great Gatsby', 'He knew that when he kissed this girl, and forever wed his unutterable visions to her perishable breath, his mind would never romp again like the mind of God. So he waited, listening for a moment longer to the tuning - fork that had been struck upon a star. Then he kissed her. At his lips' touch she blossomed for him like a flower and the incarnation was complete.' This passage is filled with a sense of the sublime and the ineffable in love, with Gatsby's idealized view of Daisy coming to a moment of fruition in this kiss.
In 'The Song of Achilles' by Madeline Miller, there's 'He is half of my soul, as the poets say.' It's a very touching quote about love. Also, in some indie novels, like 'A Shade of Magic' series, there are lines about love between characters that are not as widely known. For example, 'Love can cross dimensions, it's the one thing that's stronger than magic.' This shows that love can be a powerful force even in a world filled with magic. And in 'The Book Thief' by Markus Zusak, the love between Liesel and Max has some unspoken but deeply felt moments that can be seen as quotes about love in a more implicit way.
There's also 'We accept the love we think we deserve.' from 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower'. This quote is quite different as it focuses on self - worth and how it relates to the love one receives in a relationship, which is an interesting perspective often explored in romantic novels.
A quote from 'Romeo and Juliet' by William Shakespeare: 'My bounty is as boundless as the sea, My love as deep; the more I give to thee, The more I have, for both are infinite.' Shakespeare's use of vivid imagery to describe love here is truly remarkable.
Maybe there were stories of individual acts of kindness. For example, an enemy soldier showing mercy to a wounded opponent. Or perhaps there were stories of animals being used in the war in unexpected ways, like how horses or dogs were used for transportation or detection. There could also be stories about the role of women in the war, not just as nurses but in other support roles that are not often talked about.
Sure. A great one from 'The Lord of the Rings' by J.R.R. Tolkien: 'All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.' It tells us that we have the power to choose how we spend our time and should use it wisely for our goals.
In 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte, there's this romantic line: 'He's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.' Here, it shows a deep connection between the two characters that goes beyond the physical, a very intense form of romantic love.
One famous quote could be from Vaikom Muhammad Basheer's works. For example, 'The world is a great book; those who do not travel read only a page.' His quotes often have a deep sense of simplicity and profoundness about life and human experiences.
Attachments by Rainbow Rowell is a charming romantic novel. It's about a guy who reads people's emails and falls in love with one of the women through her messages. Me Before You by Jojo Moyes is also quite moving. It tells the story of a young woman who becomes a caregiver for a paralyzed man and their relationship that develops. The Little Paris Bookshop by Nina George also has a beautiful, slow - burning love story.
Another example comes from Lois Lowry's 'The Giver'. 'If everything's the same, then there aren't any choices! I want to wake up in the morning and decide things!' This quote emphasizes the lack of freedom and individuality in the seemingly perfect but ultimately dystopian community. Jonas, the protagonist, realizes the importance of choice and the hollowness of a life without it.
One famous romantic quote is from 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen: 'You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on.' This quote beautifully captures the intense and all - encompassing love that the character Mr. Darcy feels for Elizabeth.
