“You know, in addition to your mind-reading abilities, I may have absorbed some sluttiness from your blood,”

“I come from a land afar and a land up high. My abilities are only eclipsed by my excellent turn of phrase and if you open your mind, they could be your abilities too.”

“Sookie, it is not your blood I love. I love you. Your heart, your mind, your soul... you have brought light back into my life”

“You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. Some may be significant only to you. Some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experiences.”

“Always give 100%, unless you are giving your blood. You may want to keep some of that.”

“Every book you read may not save your life but some of them will.”
