Book quotes that match

I was reading through some of my favourite quotes from some of my favourite books the other day, and I noticed that some of them were really similar to each other. Phrases that were basically saying the exact same thing but through a slightly different choice of words.

When I looked into it more, I found a very interesting list of similar quotes…

1.

And

“When they’re together, the world could fall apart around them and they’d never notice or care as long as they have each other.” – Simone Elkeles, Rules of Attraction
