It’s another Top Ten Tuesday! Top Ten Tuesday is run by Jana over at That Artsy Reader Girl! This week’s theme is one I am super excited about! Its Things Characters Have Said.

I absolutely love collecting quotes from the books I have read, and I am super excited to share some of my favorites!

Here’s my Top Ten:

1. “Maybe I was still selfish. I still wanted the whole world.”- Because You’ll Never Meet Me by Leah Thomas (one of my absolute favorite books, and one of the few YA eptisolary books I have found)
2. “Let them start their dreadful wars, let destruction rain down, and let plague sweep through, but I will still be here, doing my work, holding humankind together with a love like this.”- Lovely War by Julie Berry (I have mentioned this book several times and I really love it. The whole book could be quoted, but this is one of my favorites)
3. “While I’m gone, dream me the world. Something new for every night.”- The Dream Thieves by Maggie Stiefvater (I love this whole series and will probably share more quotes from this author than any other)
4. “He was a book, and he was holding his final pages, and he wanted to get to the end to find out how it went, and he didn’t want it to be over.”- The Raven King by Maggie Stiefvater
5. “You are made of dreams and this world is not for you.”- Call Down the Hawk by Maggie Stiefvater
6. “Greywaren, it’s time to grow up.”- Greywaren by Maggie Stiefvater
7. “I am left with pieces of remembering though I loved him whole.”- A Thousand Endings and Beginnings edited by Ellen Oh
8. “Over and over again he said, ‘I’m sorry, I’m sorry,’ and over and over again, Nia said, ‘We love you, we love you.”- The Wingfeather Saga: North! Or Be Eaten by Andrew Peterson
9. “She may be dead, but her love for you was real. It happened, and it will always have happened. Whatever you do, you can never change the truth that a baby was born, was loved, and was given a name.”- The Wingfeather Saga: The Warden and the Wolf King (out of context this makes absolutely no sense, but it was a super emotional part of the book and has stuck with me for years)
10. “His upstairs window had shown him many things over the years. But now he could not help wondering what else his window had not shown him.”- The Lost Library by Rebecca Stead

These are just some of my favorite quotes and they have a special place in my heart!
