10 quotes from "It Ends With Us"



Whoever has read my final review about "It Ends With Us" witten by Colleen Hoover already knows how this book made me feel and how fragilized I got when I finished it. I couldn't even choose one favorite quote because I loved the book so much and the writing is really delicious.

So, let's do this. I picked my 10 favorite quotes that made me teary-eyed and that were the reason why this book touched me so deeply.




1


“In the future... if by some miracle you ever find yourself in the position to fall in love again... fall in love with me.”


2


“I feel like everyone fakes who they really are, when deep down we're all equal amounts of screwed up. Some of us are just better at hiding it than others.”


3


“I’ll keep pretending to swim, when really all I’m doing is floating. Barely keeping my head above water.”


4


“Sometimes even grown women need their mother’s comfort so we can just take a break from having to be strong all the time.”


5


“Maybe love isn’t something that comes full circle. It just ebbs and flows, in and out, just like the people in our lives.”


6


“That’s what fifteen minutes can do to a person. It can destroy them. It can save them.”


7


“But then this morning I had to tell him goodbye. And he held me and kissed me so much, I thought I might die if he let go.But I didn't die. Because he let go and here I am. Still living. Still breathing.Just barely.”


8


“Just because someone hurts you doesn’t mean you can simply stop loving them. It’s not a person’s actions that hurt the most. It’s the love. If there was no love attached to the action, the pain would be a little easier to bear.”


9


“All humans make mistakes. What determines our character is whether we turn those mistakes into excuses or lessons.”


10


“It stops here. With me and you. It ends with us.”

10 quotes from "The Bronze Horseman"


In case you haven't noticed, I am in love with this book! I gave it 5 stars out of 5 in Goodreads and I admit that I would have given it more, if I could. Even if at time, Alexander was a little too much for me and I felt like kicking his ass.

I, mostly, want everything good to (almost) every single character of this book.

Anyways, like the quote lover I am, this book was like a gold mine filled with cutsey sentences and love quotes and urghhh. Heart eyes! So, I chose 10 quotes that I hope are spoiler free, so that you, person who hasn't read this book, can hopefully feel tempted to.

And you, person who has read this book, well... I'm sure you will bawl remembering the story.


With no more delays, here are the 10 quotes that made my heart beat faster and that caused goosebumps to appear:


1.


“Ask yourself these three questions, Tatiana Metanova, and you will know who you are. Ask: What do believe in? What do you hope for? What do you love?”


2.

“What will you say about me to your next girl?” He grinned.

“I’ll say that you had perfect breasts.”

“Stop it.”

“That you had young, perky, incredible breasts with the biggest, most sensitive cherry nipples …” he said, climbing on top of her and holding up her legs high against his arms. “And lips for the gods, and eyes for kings. I will say,” Alexander whispered hotly, pushing himself inside her and groaning, “that you felt like nothing else on this earth.”


3.


“Alexander, were you looking for me?" "All my life.”


4.


“They had no past. They had no future. They just were.”


5.


“Alexander — there is one place I’m comforted. I wake up there, and I go to sleep there; I am at peace there, and loved there: your subsuming arms.”


6.


"How did you get here?”

“All part of my plan, Alexander.”

“What plan is this, Tatiana?” 

She whispered, “To be with you when I die of old age."


7.


“Alexander, my nights, my days, my every thought. You will fall away from me in just a while, won’t you, and I’ll be whole again, and I will go on and feel for someone else, the way everybody does. 

But my innocence is gone forever.”


8.


“I don't want to die," whispered Marina, "and not feel just once what you feel." She struggled for her breath, "Just once in my life, Tania!" 

"Tanechka..." she whispered. "What does it feel like?" 

Tatiana continued to gently caress Marina's forehead. 

"It feels," she whispered, "as if you're not alone.”


9.


“Someday we’ll meet in Lvov, my love and I.”

10.


"My love, my dear, dear Shura,

 I think of Dasha. (...) But her face is not the last face I see before I sleep. Yours is. You are my hand grenade, my artillery fire. You have replaced my heart with yourself. Are you thinking of me with your rifle in your hands? What do we do? How do we keep you from dying? These thoughts consume my waking minutes. What can I do from here to keep you alive? Dead or wounded, those Soviets will leave you in the field. 

 Who is going to heal you if you fall? Who is going to bury you if you die? Bury you like you deserve—with kings and heroes. 

Yours, Tatiana.”
