Ooh, there are so many...
But here's one right off the top of my head, and it was also in the movie! ;)
"She suddenly stands up, throws her bag on her arm. 'I got to go. You giving me the heart palpitations talking 'bout this.' And she goes out, slamming the door behind her."
"I look up, wipe the sweat from my temple.'And that was on a good day,' Aibileen says" - The Help by Kathryn Stockett

Here's another one that I added to my personal favorite quotes:
“If you want me to fix your homework, you need to leave me alone.” Then he spotted her. “You’re back.”
“Yeah.” She glanced between him and Gabriel. “You do his homework?”
“Just the math. It’s a miracle he can count to ten.”
“I can count to one.” Gabriel gave him the finger.”
― Storm by Brigid Kemmerer

-Amber Argyle, Witch Born
Wise words, aren't they?
I'd like to read The Great Gatsby at some point. And, lol. I know a couple of people in my life that might fit that description.

“Something inside me that had been still and silent since my first death all of a sudden sparked and began to live again. I knew there was something different about you, and I had to find out what it was.” - Vincent, If I should Die

Just read this one and thought it was sweet.
"Why do you live your life like it doesn't matter? You do matter. You matter to me - not because you're this fierce warrior thing who's going to sacrifice yourself to save me. You matter because you're you. You're the one constant thing I've had in my life. I lost my entire past - except you. You stayed with me. And you kept coming back, every time I closed my eyes." - Let the Sky Fall by Shannon Messenger

“I thought I was going to lose you,” I whisper. “Victor, I was so scared that I was going to lose you.”
“You’ll never lose me, Dawn. Since I met you, for the first time in my life, I truly understand what I’m fighting for. You are every sunrise that I will never see.”
From Darkness before Dawn by J.A. London
Here are all of my favorite quotes:
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.
Edward-- "Your trying to make everyone else happy. Your already giving away too much."
Bella-- Your wrong. It wasn't a choice between you and Jacob. It was between who I should be, and who I am. I've always felt out of step. Like literally stumbling through my life. I never felt normal. Because I'm not normal. I don't want to be. I've had to face death and loss and pain in your world, but I've also never felt stronger. It's(?) like being real, more myself, because it's my world too. It's where I belong."
Edward-- "So its not just about me?"
Bella-- "No." Laughs "Sorry. I've been a mess trying to figure this out, but I want to do it right. And I want to tie myself to you in every-way humanly possible."
Edward: I never thanked you for this extraordinary life. Bella: Nobody has ever loved anyone as much as I love you.
I knew it was working then, so I concentrated even harder, dredging up specific memories I’d saved for this moment, letting them flood my mind, and hopefully his as well. Some of the memories were not clear – dim human memories, seen through weak eyes and heard through weak ears: the first time I’d seen his face… the way it felt when he’d held me in the meadow… the sound of his voice through the darkness of my faltering consciousness when he’d saved me from James… his face as he waited under a canopy of flowers to marry me… every precious moment from the island… his cold hands touching our baby through my skin… And the sharp memories, perfectly recalled: his face when I’d opened my eyes to my new life, to the endless dawn of immortality… that first kiss… that first night
Bella: I know I can do this. Let me tell you why, because you did. You should give yourself some credit for that. And hopefully a year from now I'm gonna look in the mirror and see someone like you. Someone capable of courage, sacrifice and love
Edward: Last night was the best night of my existence
Edward: I'm not technically breaking any of his rules. He did say, I couldn't take a step inside the door. I came in through the window.He's not going to forgive me easily. Bella: I know. Edward: Can you? I hope you can because I honestly don't know how to live without you. - New Moon
Edward: Charlie, I realize that I’ve gone about this out of order. Traditionally, I should have asked you first. I mean no disrespect, but since Bella has already said yes and I don’t want to diminish her choice in the matter, instead of asking you for her hand, I’m asking for your blessing. 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. Will you give us your blessing?
[last lines; Edward and Bella are back in their meadow]
Bella Swan: I wanna show you something.
Edward Cullen: What?
[Bella lifts her shield and shows Edward her thoughts and memories of their time together from the first time they met to everything that's happened to up to now]
Edward Cullen: How did you do that?
Bella Swan: I've been practicing. Now you know, nobody's ever loved anybody as I much as I love you.
Edward Cullen: There's one exception.
[Bella nods understanding that he feels the same for her and they kiss]
Edward Cullen: Can you show me again?
[Bella smiles]
Bella Swan: We got a lot of time.
Edward Cullen: Forever.
Bella Swan: Forever.
[Bella and Edward kiss and the movie ends with the final words from the novel being shown; 'And then we continued blissfully into this small but perfect piece of our forever.']
Bella Swan: Edward, I'm sorry.
Edward Cullen: I can't live without you.
Bella Swan: You won't. You're gonna have a part of me. He'll need you.
Edward Cullen: Do you honestly think that I could love it or even tolerate it if it killed you?
Bella Swan: It's not his fault. You have to accept what is.
Edward Cullen: [yells] Because you've given me no choice! Bella, we're supposed to be partners. Remember? But you decided this on your own. You've decided to leave me.
Bella Swan: Don't see it that way!
Edward Cullen: Well I have no other way to see it. 'Cause it's me who will lose you. And I don't choose that. I don't choose that.
Bella Swan: You really were holding back before. I'm never gonna get enough of this. We don't get tired, we don't have to rest, or catch our breath or eat. I mean, how are we gonna stop?
[Edward smiles]
Edward Cullen: Rosalie and Emmett were so bad, it took a solid decade before we could stand to be within five miles of them.
Bella Swan: I think we might be worse.
Edward Cullen: Definitely worse.
[they start kissing and making love again]
Edward (to Bella) "If I'd met you back then I would of..courted you. We'd taken chaperoned strolls...and iced tea on the porch." (he gets up) "I may have stolen a kiss or two but only with your fathers permission...(he kneels down on one knee) I would of got down on one knee...and I would've presented you with a ring (he shows Bella his mothers ring) Isabella Swan. I promise to love you forever, ever single day of forever. Will you marry me?"
Jacob - "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."

“I don't think he meant to kiss me," I said finally.
"What? Did he slip and fall on your mouth? Those things are known to happen.”
(those are from obsidian by jennifer armentrout)
“Have you fallen in love with the wrong person yet?'
Jace said, "Unfortunately, Lady of the Haven, my one true love remains myself."
..."At least," she said, "you don't have to worry about rejection, Jace Wayland."
"Not necessarily. I turn myself down occasionally, just to keep it interesting.”
(City of bones)
and more but those are the ones that first appears in my mind

“There is no pretending," Jace said with absolute clarity. "I love you, and I will love you until I die, and if there is life after that, I'll love you then.”
