Müsste ich die Twilight Reihe bewerten, wäre Eclipse auf dem letzten Platz. Heißt aber nicht, dass das Buch nicht eine ganze Reihe erinnerungswürdiger Zitate bereit hält. Offensichtlich ist Jacob in diesem Buch mein klarer Favorit. Edward hat ja eigentlich in Band eins ganz charmant angefangen, aber in Eclipse nervt er mich sogar dann, wenn er gar nicht in der Szene auftaucht... Außerdem finde ich das Rumgeschwafel zwischen Edward und Bella in diesem Teil extrem. Im Gegensatz zu vielen Anderen hat mir deshalb der vierte Band wesentlich besser gefallen als der Dritte. Das beste an Eclipse sind meiner Meinung nach ja eindeutig die Szenen zwischen Edward und Jacob!
"If you ever bring her back damaged again - and I don´t care whose fault it is; I don´t care if she merely trips, or if a meteor falls out of the sky and hits her head - if you return her to me in less then the perfect condition I left her in, you will be running with three legs. Do you understand that, mongrel?"
“She is mine. I didn’t say I would fight fair.”
“He’s playing every bit as hard as I am, only he knows what he’s doing and I don’t. Don’t blame me because he’s a better manipulator than I am — I haven’t been around long enough to learn all his tricks.”
“He’s like a drug for you, Bella. I see that you can’t live without him now. It’s too late. But I would have been healthier for you. Not a drug; I would have been the air, the sun.”
“The clouds I can handle. But I can’t fight with an eclipse.”
"Would you like me to help you sleep, Jacob?"
"Fall down again, Bella?"
"No Emmett, I punched a werewolf in the face."
Jakob was curled up, his eyes already closed. He yawned.
"I didn´t say it wasn´t the best night I ever spent. Just that I didn´t get a lot of sleep. [...]"
"I´m glad you enjoyed yourself." Edward murmured.
Jacob´s dark eyes fluttered open. "Didn´t you have a nice night, then?" he asked, smug.
"Did it make the top ten?" Jacob asked with perverse enjoyment.
"Possibly."
Jacob smiled and closed his eyes.
"But" Edward went on, "if I had been able to take your place last night, it would not have made the top ten of the best nights of my life. Dream about that."
Jacob´s eyes opened in a glare, he sat up stiffly.
"You know what`I think it´s too crowded in here."
Wie gesagt nicht mein Lieblingsband. It´s getting cheesy. Meine Top 5 least favorite quotes:
Platz 5: "I love him. Not because he´s beautiful or because he is rich. I´d much rather he weren´t either one. It would even out the gap between us just a little - because he´d still be the most loving and unselfish and brilliant and decent person I´ve ever met. Of course I love him."
Platz 4: " What did it mean, that I didn´t want him to stop? That my hands clung to his shoulders and liked that they were wide and strong? That his hands pulled me too tight angainst his body and yet it was not tight enough for me?"
Platz 3: "I´ll never forgive myself for leaving you. Not if I live a hundred thousand years."
Platz 2: "I had no right to want you - but I reached out and took you anyway. And now look what´s become of you. Trying to seduce a vampire."
Platz 1: "I´ll be back so soon, you won´t have time to miss me. Look after my heart - I´ve left it with you!"

"Would you like me to help you sleep, Jacob?"
"I really wish you were not forcing me to say to say this out loud Dad. Really. But.. I am a... virgin. And I have no immediate plans to change that status."
"Fall down again, Bella?"
"No Emmett, I punched a werewolf in the face."

Some say the world will end in fire
Some say in ice.
From what I´ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if I had to perish twice,
I think that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
(Gedicht von Robert Frost, aus dem Vorwort. Love it.)
"All our attempts at subterfuge had been in vain. With ice in my heart I watched him prepare to defend me."
