Midnight Sun Quotes
Bella Swan walked into the flow of heated air that blew toward me from the vent. Her scent hit me like a battering ram, like an exploding grenade. There was no image violent enough to encompass the force of what happened to me in that moment. Instantly, I was transformed. […] I was a predator. She was my prey. There was nothing else in the whole world but that truth. […] I was a vampire, and she had the sweetest blood I’d smelled in more than eighty years.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
I could not think of one place on the entire planet that held any interest for me. There was nothing I wanted to see or do. Because no matter where I went, I would not be going to anywhere – I would only be running from. I hated that. When had I become such a coward?
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
Humans were constantly desperate to feel normal, to fit in. To blend in with everyone else around them, like a featureless flock of sheep. The need was particularly strong during the insecure adolescent years.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
Attraction. It was a problematic thing to contemplate. So many sides to it, so many different meanings and levels. Not the same thing as love, but tied up in it inextricably.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
With every fiber of my being, I ached to be a normal man, so that I could hold her in my arms without risking her life. So that I could be free to spin my own fantasies, fantasies that didn’t end with her blood on my hands, her blood glowing in my eyes.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
Isn’t this the worst luck any human could ever possibly have – to have a vampire fall in love with them?
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
Her instincts were all wrong – backward. That must be the problem. She didn’t recognize danger the way a human being should be able to. She had the opposite reaction. Instead of running, she lingered, drawn to what should frighten her.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
I used to know what I was doing. I used to be always sure of my course. And now everything was chaos and tumult. Yet I wouldn’t trade it. Not if the chaos meant that I could be near Bella.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
I would fight, I would keep fighting. Whatever force it was that wanted to hurt Bella would have to go through me. No, she had no guardian angel. But I would do my best to make up for the lack.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
Her dreams all had clipped wings – not like those of the usual teenager off to conquer the world. Obviously a product of facing realities long before she should have had to.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
I’m not a big fan of birthdays. It’s a lot of pressure. Presents and stuff. What if you don’t like them? You’ve got to get your game face on right away so you don’t hurt anyone’s feelings. And people look at you a lot.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
For the first time in a hundred years, I was grateful to be what I was. Every aspect of being a vampire – all but the danger to her – was suddenly acceptable to me, because it was what had let me live long enough to find Bella. The decades I had endured would not have been so difficult had I known what was waiting for me, that my existence was advancing toward something better than I could have imagined. It had not been years of killing time, as I had thought; it had been years of progress. Refining, preparing, mastering myself so that I could have this now.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
For almost ninety years I’ve walked among my kind, and yours … all the time thinking I was complete in myself, not realizing what I was seeking. And not finding anything … because you weren’t alive yet.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
Just because we’ve been … dealt a certain hand … it doesn’t mean that we can’t choose to rise above – to conquer the boundaries of a destiny that none of us wanted. To try to retain whatever essential humanity we can.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
When Bella said the word forever, it didn’t mean the same thing to her as it meant to me. For her, it meant merely a very long time. It meant she couldn’t see the end yet. How could anyone who had lived only seventeen years comprehend what fifty years meant, let alone eternity? She was human, not a frozen immortal. Within just a few years, she would reinvent herself many times over. Her priorities would shift as her world grew wider. The things she wanted now wouldn’t be the things she wanted then.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
I’d always instinctively known that there was no deity for my kind. It made no sense for immortals to have a god; we had taken ourselves out of any god’s power. We created our lives, and the only power strong enough to take them away again was another like us. Earthquakes couldn’t crush us, floods couldn’t drown us, fires were too slow to catch us. Sulfur and brimstone were irrelevant. We were the gods of our own alternate universe. Inside the mortal world but over it, never slaves to its laws, only our own.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
I’ll be the first to admit that I have no experience with relationships. But it just seems logical … a man and woman have to be somewhat equal … as in, one of them can’t always be swooping in and saving the other one. They have to save each other equally.
from Midnight Sun book by Stephenie Meyer
Twilight again. Another ending. No matter how perfect the day is, it always has to end.
