Twilight (novel)/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Quotes from the Twilight Saga

"About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him-and I didn’t know how potent that part might be-that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him."

Bella, Twilight

"Before you, Bella, my life was like a moonless night. Very dark, but there were stars, points of light and reason. ...And then you shot across my sky like a meteor. Suddenly everything was on fire; there was brilliancy, there was beauty. When you were gone, when the meteor had fallen over the horizon, everything went black. Nothing had changed, but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn’t see the stars anymore. And there was no more reason, for anything."

Edward, New Moon

"The bond forged between us was not one that could be broken by absence, distance, or time. And no matter how much more special or beautiful or brilliant or perfect than me he might be, he was as irreversibly altered as I was. As I would always belong to him, so would he always be mine."

Bella, New Moon

"Would you like to hear my story, Bella? It doesn't have a happy ending—but which of ours does? If we had happy endings, we'd all be under gravestones now."

Rosalie Hale, Eclipse

"It’s not like love at first sight, really. It’s more like... gravity moves. When you see her, suddenly it’s not the earth holding you here anymore. She does. And nothing matters more than her. And you would do anything for her, be anything for her... You become whatever she needs you to be, whether that’s a protector, or a lover, or a friend, or a brother."

Jacob, describing the act of imprinting, Eclipse

"You could run from someone you feared, you could try to fight someone you hated. All my reactions were geared toward those kinds of killers – the monsters, the enemies. When you loved the one who was killing you, it left you no options. How could you run, how could you fight, when doing so would hurt that beloved one? If your life was all you had to give your beloved, how could you not give it? If it was someone you truly loved?"

Bella, Breaking Dawn

"Black spots covered the light in the room as a cold point of new pain stabbed icily into my stomach. It felt wrong—I struggled automatically to protect my womb, my baby, my little Edward Jacob, but I was weak. My lungs ached, oxygen burned away. The pain faded away again, though I clung to it now. My baby, my baby, dying..."

Bella, Breaking Dawn, chapter 19

Quotes about the Twilight Saga

"Coldly calculated to pander to your shrieking demographic!"
Michael J. Nelson, Riff Trax
"Kids love sexy vampires!"
J.D., Scrubs
"There are girls quivering. There are boys staring deeply into girls' eyes as they quiver and so forth. There really is a tremendous amount of quivering. It is anti-Christian. It is pro-quivering."
Like a reverse-gender Archie Comics, with monsters.
If these [Twilight's Periphery Demographic] were 40 year old men screaming for 17 year old girls, they'd be on To Catch a Predator so fast it would make your head spin.

"Twilight is an incredibly interesting book for a lot of reasons. None of them are the reasons Meyer intended when she wrote it."
It's basically about Prince Charming if he was trying to eat you.
Austin Powell
