Twilightinators! discussion

There are the simple ones such as, "And so, the lion fell in love with the lamb." But, what about the deep ones? The ones that you have to read twice to understand?

Post some of your favorite twilight quotes here. I will post some later :)

Yes! Haha, I love that one!

Here's one of my favorite ones. It is from New Moon-

Time passes. Even when it seems impossible. Even when each tick of the second hand aches like the pulse of blood behind a bruise. It passes unevenly, in a strang lurches and dragging lulls, but pass it does.
Even for me.

That is great, you can really feel it.

Love it...

Yeah, I wish I had the book right now! I need to find some more..

"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."

Is this the one you're talking about?

i like the preface of breaking dawn, if anyone read it. i know what it means, i think.

The preface is very good!

What are your ideas on it? I have a few myself.

i think it means that once bella turns, jacob will come back and try to kill her.

i didn't say kill her i said try to kill her. If that makes any kind of sense.

That is kind of what I thought too!
I really hope that he doesn't try anything. He did say that he'd rather see her dead than a vampire tho... :(

true.

hahahahahah
Man, I love when Bella's like "No emmett, I punched a werewolf in the face." hahaha

yeah me too

wow, hilary. i LOVE the quote you put above. about time passing. some people just can't find stuff like that. their eyes pass right over it and they don't see it's......dang it! i can't think of the right word but it's something.

i have to say i luv the "i prefer brunettes.' quote. Mostly because 1. Edward is saying it and 2. Im a brunette.... so YEAH!

yes that is one of my favs maybe cuz i ma brunette.

ahhhh that sucks. oh wait does it count if u have naurally black and brown hair? if it doesn't im going to have to dye my hair now jk

awwwwwwwwwww man! i give up on edward! im going to stick with mike for now. jkjk i still love u, edward even though u don't love girls with black hair.

oh boy, here it goes.
"Of all the things about me that could frighten you, you worry about my driving."

-Edward Cullen, Twilight

"I've decided that as long as I was going to Hell, I might as well do it thoroughly."

-Edward Cullen, Twilight

I also like this short conversation:

"You were right"

"I usually am - but about what in particular this time?"

-Bella Swan and Edward Cullen

"Breakfast time," he said eventually, casually...

So I clutched my throat with both hands and stared at him with wide eyes.

Shock crossed his face.

"Kidding!" I snickered. "And you said I couldn't act!" -bella & Edward

"Afraid of a needle." he muttered to himself under his breath, shaking his head. "Oh, a sadistic vampire, intent on torturing her to death, sure, no problem, she runs off to meet him. An IV, on the other hand..." -Bella & Edward

"If I could dream at all, it would be about you. And I'm not ashamed of it."

-Edward Cullen to Bella Swan

"This is a...um...big jeep you have" (Meyer 360)- Twilight- Bella Swan

"You are my life. You're the only thing it would hurt to lose" (Meyer 474)-Twilight- Bella Swan

"Do you want me to bolt the doors so you can massacre the unsuspecting townsfolk?" (Meyer 487)-Twilight- Bella Swan

"Now"he breathed, and just his smell disturbed my thought process,"waht exactly are you worrying about?"

"Well, um, hitting a tree-"I gulped"-and dying, And then getting sick."

He fought back a smile. THen he bent his head down and toughed his cold lips softly to the hollow at the base of my throat.

"Are you still worried now?" he murmured against my skin.

"Yes." I struggled to concentrate. "About hitting trees and getting sick."

His nose drew a line up the skin of my troat to the point of my chin. His cold breath tickled against my jaw.

"And now?" HIs lips whispered against my jaw.

"Trees," I gasped. "Motion Sickness."

He lifted his face to kiss my eyelids. "Bells, you don't really think I would hit a tree, do you?"

"No, but I might." There was no confidence in my voice. He smelled an easy victory.

and also...

"It's over, bella."

I dared to poen my eyes, and sure enough, we were at a standstill. I stiffly unlocked my stranglehold on his body and slipped to the gound, landing on my backside.

"oh!" I huffed as I hit the wet ground.

He stared at me incredulously, evidently not sure whetehr he was still too mad to find me funny. But my bewildered expression pushed him over the edge, and he broke into a roar of laughter.

I picked myslef up, ignoring him as I brushed the mud and bracken off the back of my jacket. That only made him laugh harder. Annoyed, I began to stride off into the forest.

Also...

"Was that you we heard, Edward?"Esme asked as she approached.

"It sounded like a bear choking." Emmet clarified.

I smiled hesitantly at Esme."That was him"

"You...made...me..faint"

"What am I going to do with you ?Yesterday I kiss you,and you attacke me! Today you pass out on me!"

-Twilight,Chapter 15.The Cullens,pp.319

"Bella, I couldn't live with myself if I ever hurt you."

"You are the most important thing to me now. The most important thing to me ever."

-Twilight,Chapter 13.Confessions,pp.273

"That's an understatement."

-Twilight,Chapter 13.Confessions,pp.282

"You are only human,after all."

-Twilight,Chapter 13.Confessions,pp.283

"Are you still faint from the run?Or was it my kissing expertise?"

-Twilight,Chapter 13.Confessions,pp.283

"Bella ,I've already expended a great deal of personal effort to keep you alive.I'm not about to let you behind the whhel of a vehicle when you can't even walk straight.Besides, friends don't let friends drive drunk,"

"Drunk?"

"You're intoxicated by my vere presence."

-Twilight,Chapter 13.Confessions,pp.284

Oh, I love so many, let me see... twilight, pg 452 chapter 23 the angel "Where I floated, under the dark water, I heard the happiest sound my mind could conjure up -- as beautiful, as uplifting, as it was ghastly. It was another snarl; a deeper, wilder roar that rang with fury."


"I can do this, I lied to myself feebly. No one was going to bite me." - Bella page 14

"That's Edward. He's gorgeous, of course, but don't waste your time. He doesn't date." Jessica (of all people), page 22

When life offers you a dream so far beyond any of your expectations, it's not reasonable to grieve when it comes to an end. - Bella, page 1

I wasn't interesting. And he was. Interesting...and brilliant...and mysterious...and perfect...and beautiful...and possibly able to lift full-sized vans with one hand. -Bella, I don't remember the page.

And a convo:

"I can drive better than you on your best day. You have much slower reflexes." (Skipping a piece of the conversation...) "Besides, friends don't let friends drive drunk."

"Drunk?"

"You're intoxicated by my very presence." (Skip some more...)

"And are you not affected at all? By my presence?"

Again his mobile features transformed, his expression became soft, warm. He didn't answer at first; he simply bent his face to mine, and brushed his lips slowly along my jaw, from my ear to my chin, and back and forth. I trembled.

"Regardless," he finally murmured. "I have better reflexes."

-Edward and Bella, pages 283 - 285

"I was thinking, while I was running..." He paused.

"About not hitting the trees, I hope." -Edward and Bella, page 281

"So what you're saying is, I'm your brand of heroin?"

"Yes, you are exactly my brand of heroin." - Bella and Edward, pages 267 - 268

The waves of pain that had only lapped at me before now reared high up and washed over my head, pulling me under.

I did not resurface. - Bella, New Moon just before the infamous paragraph.

"I may not be human, but I'm still a man." - Edward. I don't remember where. I even remember which book.

"Twilight, again," he murmured. "Another ending. No matter how perfect the day is, it always has to end." - Edward, page 495

"Breakfast time," he said eventually, casually - to prove, I'm sure, that he remembered all my human frailties.

So I clutched my throat with both hands and stared at him with wide eye. Shock crossed his face.

"Kidding!" I snickered. "And you said I couldn't act!"

He frowned in disgust. "That wasn't funny."

"It was very funny, and you know it." (Skip another part...)

"Shall I rephrase?" he asked. "Breakfast time for the human." - Edward and Bella, pages 314 - 315

This whole convo is funny. Some other people posted pieces of it.

"This looks like a horror movie waiting to happen."

"Well, there are more than enough vampires present."

"Do you want me to bolt the doors so you can massacre the unsuspecting townsfolk?"

"And where do you fit into that scheme?"

"Oh, I'm with the vampires, of course."

"Anything to get out of dancing."

"Anything."

-Bella and Edward, page 487

"In what strange parallel dimension would I ever have gone to prom of my own free will?" - Bella, page 495

Naturally there are more.

I think this is long enough... and sorry for repetitive quotes and any miss-quotes. I don't have the books with me, I had to go find them on my myspace, facebook, e-mail, google. sorry :)

One of my favorites,(I don't have the book to look it up to get it perfect)is in Twilight when they are telling Laurent that James is after Bella and Laurent asks,"Is she really worth it?" and then Edward roars at the top of his lungs. It just shows how much Edward loves her and that he is willing to put Bella first, even before his family. I LOVE YOU EDWARD!!!!!

I also love the part, in Twilight I believe it is, when Bella is in Edward's room for the first time and, well it goes something like this: "You're still waiting for the running and the screaming aren't you?" He smiled slightly and nodded. "Well sorry to burst your bubble, but you're really not as scary as you think you are. I don't find you scary at all actually." He smiled and said,"You really shouldn't have said that." And then he pounces her and attacks her. Then Alice and Jasper come in and Alice says,"It sounded like you were having Bella for lunch and we came to see if there was some to share." I tensed and looked at Edward to see him smiling whether from what Alice said or from my reaction I don't know. And then Edward says,"Sorry I don't believe I have any to share." I LOVE THAT PART!!!

Me too - Emmet is hillarious !!

I love in breaking Dawn when they tell charlie about their engagement - ". . . We're getting married, Charlie. I love her more than anything in the world, more than my own life, and-by some miracle-she loves me that way, too. . . "
It shows how absolutely besotted Edward is and how he feels as amazed that Bella loves him, as she is about the way he loves her.

"If we all had happy endings, we'd be under gravestones by now."
- Rosalie Hale, Eclispe

And then in the movie:
"Death is peaceful, easy
Life is harder."
- Bella Swan, Twilight movie

That one is just true all around...

I like to Roaslie one

I don't remember it!!! Which book is it in?

1. Critics and STRAIGHT dudes worldwide hate it
2. It has no story and it all about a sparkling idiot
3. The characters have no personalities or hobbies except being soooo in love that its scary
4. Bella is a wimp who can't do anything for herself

Is it just me or is this groups picture scary?

Twilight tells the story of how Bella Swan, a seventeen-year-old girl, who falls in love with Edward Cullen, a one hundred and seven-year-old vampire.

Thats about it.

After the initial attempt at a plot ("I can't love you! I'll eat you!" "No, I love you more" "No I love you more!") until Meyer remebers that somethingactually has to happen in the novel.

Twilight has been called everything from "the next Harry Potter" to "a scrap of tissue paper I wouldn't blow my nose in". Obviously when something gains overnight popularity there's going to be some kickback, but Twilight is earning so much hatred that even Britney Spears fans are wincing.

(And I had best not hear Britney bashing in the comments, ladies)

Because I think it's very unfair to bash a book without reading it first, I sat down with a cup of hot cocoa and a knit blanket over the winter break to read. A decent amount of alcohol later (trust me when I say it was necessary), I put it down, found myself lighter, and set the thing on fire. Looking past the atrocious writing, the characters are flat and oversimplified, the dialogue is painful, and the idolized relationships in the book are borderline terrifying.

Dear readers, you're an intelligent bunch. So I'm going to state the truth to you. It might hurt some of you, but you need to hear it.

Twilight is the worst book ever written. EVER.

Why? Well, there are quite literally millions of reasons, but here's one of them. Edward, Bella's true love, has become the symbol of the perfect man for millions of young girls across the world.

Which is great, right? Young girls having an ideal of perfection to aspire to with their own Mr. Right?

Only not. Because once again you've looked past the sparkling-did I mention the sparkling? The vampire's sparkle.-and get into the actual "substance" of the book, you find out the relationship between Edward and Bella is so far over the board of abusive its not even funny.

I'm not against love in any manner of speaking, so long as it's all adult and consensual-like. But let's be serious for a moment here, reders. If you heard about a guy whocut the brakes on his girlfriend's car so that she couldn't go hang out with her friend, what would you think? That's not love, kids, that's stalking, and between you and me, that's pretty messed up.

Now, it's only fair to get two sides to every story, so I went out and did a little research on both sides of the spectrum. I even tried to stay away from the usual fourteen-year-old fangirls so that I could get a somewhat intelligant opinion. One college freshman, when asked why she was asked why she was a fan of Twilight, said, "I love the relationship between Edward and Bella. You know, if you look past the abuse. He's the perfect guy."

Skeptically, I ventured, "Can we get back to the 'abusive' part?"

Of course, generally Twilight fans don't like to get into that part at all, as it ruins their image of Edward as, you guessed it, the "perfect guy". Unfortunately, when you consider the number of girls looking for guys like Edward, that's kinda terrifying. It certainly scares me.

Despite the overwhelming support of Twilight among the fans, it took two clicks on google to find hundreds of anti-Twilight testimonials. Reasons given on the LiveJournal community ontd_twalight included "s***t-poor writing" and "worst possible example of how to live your life". Another usre said, "I hate how the series, written by an untalented hack, has made thousands of females into mindless retards entranced by badly written, badly concieved s***t. I hate hearing how girls talk about it like it's a memorable piece of literature." The anti-Twilight Movement summed up their entire argument by stating: "It's unoriginal, amateur, openly abusive, and horribly, horribly written."

But back to my original arguement-namely, that Twilight is the worst book ever. For just a moment, let's look beyond the bad writing and the abusive relationships and the atrocious characters. The real reason?

Twilight is the High School Musical of novels.

Stop, come back, I'm not dissing High School Musical. I'm not saying it's bad because it's like HSM. But think back. Remember back when that shit came out, and Disney was plastering Zac Efron's face onto anything it could possibly be plastered on? It's like that, but with Hot Topic. Twilight is everywhere. Everywhere. You can't escape it.

Only instead of advertising a feel-good (If musically...interesting)movie, it's advertising a book inspiring millions of young girls to give up their hopes in dreams to fall in love with an abusive man and let him control every life decision they make, from college to pregnancy. For those of you who have sisters, daughters, any female relatives at all- that's terrifying. I've never been one to advocate banning books in any sense, but I'd certainly think twice before letting my child read something like this.

Now, there's the arguement that people read the book because it's a simple work that doesn't require any thought to read. Alright, fine, I can respect that. But there's a difference, ladies, between reading something for fun and modeling your life after it, and that's where Twilight get's worrying-girls aren't reading it, they're letting it brainwash them. For God's sake, someone asked Robert Pattinson to bite her. Girl's, I can't make this up.

So, in conclusion: Twilight is the worst book ever written.

I mean, seriously. They sparkle.

Seriously.

Your welcome. Wow its kinda quiet here isn't it?

I promise I will never fail you again (New Moon)

Many of the Twilight quotes are under quotes here and you can click to add them to your page.

"It's an extraordinary thing to meet someone who you can bare your soul to and accept you for what you are. I've been waiting, for what seems like a very long time, to get beyond what I am. With Bella I feel like I can finally begin. So I'd like to propose a toast to my beautiful bride. No measure of time with you will be long enough. But let's start with forever."

This is my all time favorite quote. Everytime I hear Edward say it it makes me cry. If I was Bella I would have cried like a baby listening to him sy this at the wedding.
