| a92602e | Don't settle. Know what you want and reach for it. And if you don't know what you want, be patient. The answers will come to you in time, and you may find that your heart's desire has been right under your nose all the while. And | Julia Quinn | ||
| 4d492d8 | Say!" Benedict exclaimed. "Why don't save her, Hastings?" Simon took one look at Lady Bridgerton (who at that point had her hand firmly wrapped around Macclesfield's forearm) and decided he'd rather be branded an eternal coward. "Since we haven't been introduced, I'm sure it would be most improper," he improvised. "I'm sure it wouldn't," Anthony returned. "You're a duke." "So?" "So?" Anthony echoed. "Mother would forgive any impropri.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 633e0e8 | And are you thirsty," she asked, "or were you merely being polite?" "I am always polite," he said with a wicked grin, "but I am thirsty as well." Kate took one look at that grin, lethally combined with those devastating green eyes, and nearly groaned. "You are a rake as well," she said with a sigh. Colin choked-- on what, she did not know, but he choked nonetheless. "I beg your pardon?" Kate's face flushed as she realized with horror th.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 7f43e5c | What happened?' 'He humiliated me.' 'Oh, my Lord, Belle. He didn't...' 'No. But I wish I had. Then he'd have to marry me, and I-' 'Belle, you don't know what you're saying.' 'I know exactly what I'm saying! Why is it that no one can credit me with the ability to know my own mind? | Julia Quinn | ||
| 4dd9e19 | I give in," she gasped. "What has turned your evening into such a dreadful affair?" "What or ?" "' Whom'?" she echoed, tilting her head as she looked at him. "This grows even more interesting." "I can think of any number of adjectives to describe all of the 'whoms' I have had the pleasure of meeting this evening, but 'interesting' is not one of them." "Now, now," she chided, "don't be rude. I did see you chatting with my brothers, afte.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| d755ff7 | We've been through nothing, you ridiculous man, but I suppose you may call me Daphne nonetheless." "Excellent." He nodded in a condescending manner. "You may call me 'your grace." | Julia Quinn | ||
| cb08db3 | There was something about Miss Lyndon that made him glad she was on his side. Not that he thought she would make a vicious enemy, just that she seemed loyal, level-headed, and fair. And she had a wicked sense of humor. Just the sort of person a man would want standing beside him when he needed support. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 09c1c35 | Anne strove for honesty whenever possible, probably because it so often wasn't possible. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 4305630 | I need to know how you can be so certain,' Daniel said, his voice dropping into a furious hush. 'Well...' Hugh brought his glass to his lips and took something deeper than a sip. 'If you must know, I told him that if anything happens to you, I would kill myself.' If Daniel had been holding anything, anything at all, it would have crashed to the ground. It was a remarkable thing that *he* did not crash to the ground. 'My father knows me well.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 9b050ab | He came to a halt three feet away from her. Beyond the length of his arms. He trusted himself, but not completely. 'You shouldn't do this,' she whispered. But he was too far gone. 'I *wish* to kiss you. That is what I wanted you to know. Because if I'm not going to do it, and it appears that I am not, because it isn't what you want, at least not right now...but if I'm not going to do it, you need to know that I wanted it.' He paused, starin.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 100291d | The weather is fine,' she said after a moment. 'Have we already run out of things to say?' His voice was light and teasing, and when she turned to steal a glance at his face, he was looking straight ahead, a small, secret smile touching his lips. 'The weather is very fine,' she amended. His smile deepened. So did hers. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 48ee5b6 | when he called her Anne, it was the first time she felt as if the name was truly hers. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 8d16fe1 | His hands cupped her cheeks, holding her steady so that he might drink in the sight of her. It was too dark to see the exact colors that made her unforgettable face, but Simon knew that her lips were soft and pink, with just a tinge of peach at the corners. He knew that her eyes were made up of dozens of shades of brown, with that one enchanting circle of green constantly daring him to take a closer look, to see if it was really there or ju.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| e820124 | She tried to say something witty; she tried to say something seductive. But her bravado failed her at the last moment. She'd never been kissed before, and now that she had all but invited him to be the first, she didn't know what to do. His fingers loosened slightly around her wrist, but then they tugged, pulling her along with him as he stepped behind a tall, elaborately carved hedge. He whispered her name, touched her cheek. Her eyes wide.. | Julia Quinn | ||

| 728b6b7 | Laugh. Laugh out loud, and laugh often. And when circumstances call for silence, turn your laugh into a smile. Don | Julia Quinn | ||
| b35227a | he was helpless against his own devilish nature when it came to this girl | Julia Quinn | ||
| 0d298ea | He touched her cheek, and he looked into her eyes. He saw his whole world there | eyes love world | Julia Quinn | |
| ab8b489 | Simon gave her a startled look. 'I don't believe I have ever been condescended to by a woman before.' She shrugged. 'It was probably past time. | funny romance romance-book-quotes | Julia Quinn | |
| 79c72b0 | It's bacon. How can anything in the world seem bleak when one is eating bacon? | Julia Quinn | ||
| 9ebea32 | Bloody hell," Phillip finally burst out. "If you're going to break my legs, would you just go ahead and do it now?" | lol | Julia Quinn | |
| 996d2de | It seems silly now, but I was so worried you weren't the perfect man of my dreams." "No one is perfect," he said quietly. "I know." She leaned over and planted an impulsive kiss on his cheek. "You're the imperfect man of my heart, and that's even better." | Julia Quinn | ||
| 89cc533 | Good," Colin muttered, taking a bite. "I'm famished." "How can you think of food?" Gregory said angrily. "I always think of food," Colin replied, his eyes searching the table until he located the butter. "What else is there?" "Your wife," Benedict drawled." | Julia Quinn | ||
| 1a12078 | when he found her, upstairs in the hall outside her bedchamber, her hair had gone white. As, it seemed, had the rest of her. Bloody hell. 'Oliver!' he bellowed. 'Amanda!' 'Oh, they're long gone,' Eloisa bit off. She looked up at him with fuming eyes. Fuming eyes which, he couldn't help but note, were the only part of her not covered with a remarkably thick coating of flour. Well, good for her for closing them in time. He'd always admired qu.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 6231c79 | This was Penelope, and this was love. | Julia Quinn | ||
| f686350 | He's an idiot," Harry said again. "One who doesn't deserve to lick your feet. You'll thank me someday." "I have no intention of allowing him to lick me anywhere," she retorted, then turned utterly red when she realized what she's said." | lick | Julia Quinn | |
| 4d54cc1 | Daphne looked down and noticed that her hand was clenched into a fist. Then she looked up and realized her mother was staring at her, clearly waiting for her to say something. Since she had already exhaled, Daphne cleared her throat, and said, "I'm sure Lady Whistledown's little column is not going to hurt my chances for a husband." "Daphne, it's been two years!" "And Lady Whistledown has only been publishing for three months, so I hardl.. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 8fbeb71 | Change what you can and accept what you can't. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 2de237c | He took a step toward her, his clothing slipping from his fingers. 'There has been a terrible mistake.' 'Yes, there has,' she said, her entire body shaking with emotion. 'I was mistaken to think I could ever be enough of a woman to please you, to ever think that I could learn what it means to be anyone else but me. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 4ab1954 | Every time he thought he knew everything about her, had unwillingly memorized every last detail, something inside her flickered and changed, and he felt himself falling anew. | Julia Quinn | ||
| 1219fe9 | So ended the formative period in [his] life, the single year that set in motion all the clockwork of his future identity. Thinking back on it, I wonder if it isn't the same for all of us. Adulthood is a glacier encroaching quietly on youth. When it arrives, the stamp of childhood suddenly freezes, capturing us for good in the image of our last act, the pose we struck when the ice of age set in. | Ian Caldwell & Dustin Thomason | ||
| a3360a5 | The two hardest things to contemplate in life (...) are failure and age, and those are one and the same. | Ian Caldwell & Dustin Thomason | ||
| 0cb50d0 | Think hard before you begin, then enter the work. | Susan Vreeland | ||
| 555894d | Allowing beauty a place in the soul was a powerful antidote to the stress and strain of mortal life. | Susan Vreeland | ||
| 12fada7 | The winsome lilt of Digna humming in the garden. Her knowing, almost teasing look, not quite a smile, when she knew she had the upper hand about something, and his willing acquiescence. Her coaxing in the dark next to him - What was your favorite part of the day? - to which he'd always say, because he always thought it - now, touching you. He'd feel the lump of truth form in his throat, the swell of love in his loins. And afterward, the pea.. | Susan Vreeland | ||
| 77d6d05 | No matter where life takes you...the place where you stand at any moment is holy ground. Love hard and love wide and love long, and you will find goodness in it. | Susan Vreeland | ||
| 2493cd7 | He had a thought that amused him. "Figures, still life, landscape, AND an animal! Zola, eat your hat!" he bellowed." | susan vreeland | ||
| 876e527 | At this stage of life, he'd better just lean into love, because if he fell, he feared he might break a hip. | Susan Vreeland | ||
| 6571efa | What is broken is broken--and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived. | Margaret Mitchell | ||
| 13da899 | He looked on people, and he neither liked nor disliked them. He looked on life and was neither heartened nor saddened. He accepted the universe and his place in it for what they were and, shrugging, turned to his music and books and his better world. | Margaret Mitchell | ||
| 14bf2b1 | So I think I'll remove him from your mind forever, this way. I'll put my hands, so, on each side of your head and I'll smash your skull between them like a walnut and that will blot him out. | Margaret Mitchell | ||
| 4e51dba | Svi su ratovi sveti - rece - za one koji se u njima bore. Kad ljudi koji pokrecu ratove ne bi od njih napravili svetinje ko bi bio toliko lud da se tuce? Ali ma kakve bile krilatice koje besjednici dobacuju ludacima koji se tuku, ma kako plemenite svrhe oni pripisivali ratovima, rat uvijek ima samo jedan razlog. A taj razlog je novac. Svi ratovi su stvarno bili tuce oko novca. Ali je malo ljudi koji to shvataju. Njihove usi su tako pune tre.. | Margaret Mitchell | ||
| 822eefc | Suddenly she was standing at Tara again with the world about her ears, desolate with the knowledge that she could not face life without the terrible strength of the weak, the gentle, the tender-hearted. | Margaret Mitchell |
