Sometimes, when you are reading a good book, certain quotes affect you. I find myself going back to reread them over and over. Whether they apply to your own life, or are simply beautiful written words, the author has found a way to capture this moment for us.

1. "Even though I couldn't empathize—I had long since lost the ability—I could appreciate the innocence of it. The feeling that it didn't matter if the world was spinning or not... all that mattered was the face you were staring at." -Brodi Ashton, "Everneath" Series

2. "I was wild and tame and pulled into shreds and crushed into being all at once." -Maggie Stiefvater, "Shiver" Series

3. "As the hours crept by, the afternoon sunlight bleached all the books on the shelves to pale, gilded versions of themselves and warmed the paper and ink inside the covers so that the smell of unread words hung in the air." -Maggie Stiefvater, "Shiver" Series

4. "It wasn't bravery, because I wasn't brave. I was desperate...and sometimes desperation is enough." -Jennifer Armentrout, "Lux" Series

5. "When horrible things happen it's human nature to want to blame it on someone. We want someone to be held accountable, even though sometimes things just happen." -Meg Cabot, "Underworld" Series

6. "I stay with him because I choose to, every day that I wake up, every day that we fight or lie to each other or disappoint each other. I choose him over and over again and he chooses me." - Veronica Roth, "Divergent" Series

7. "You endure what is unbearable, and you bear it. That is all." -Cassandra Clare, "The Mortal Instruments" Series

8. "Do not pity the dead Harry. Pity the living and above all, those who live without love." - J.K. Rowling, "Harry Potter" Series

9. "One must always be careful of books and what is inside of them, for words have the power to change us." - Cassandra Clare, "The Infernal Devices" Series

10. "It's a mystery of human chemistry and I don't understand it, some people, as far as their senses are concerned, just feel like home." - Nick Hornby, "High Fidelity"

11. "There is no pretending,” Jace said with absolute clarity. “I love you, and I will love you until I die, and if there is life after that, I’ll love you then.” –Cassandra Clare, "The Mortal Instruments" Series

12. "I guess that's what saying good-bye is always like—like jumping off an edge. The worst part is making the choice to do it. Once you're in the air, there's nothing you can do but let go." -Lauren Oliver, "Before I Fall"

13. "You are not lost Kaylee. You can't ever be lost, because I'll always know where you are. And if I'm not there with you, I'm on my way and nothing standing between us will be standing for long." -Rachel Vincent, "The Soul Screamers" Series

14. "She believed in me. She thought I was better than I am, better than I could ever be. Her love wasn't choking, but it wasn't something you had to feel guilty asking for either." -Melissa Marr, "Graveminder"

15. "I wanted to destroy you... And I wanted to take you in my arms and love you, and I wanted to tear you apart, and I wanted to crush anything that would harm you, all at the same time." -Amy Bartol, "Premonition" Series
