Diana Gabaldon
D'ye think I don't know? he asked softly. It's me that has the easy part now. For if ye feel for me as I do for you-then I'm asking you to tear out your heart and live without it.
Diana Gabaldon
It would ha' been a good deal easier, if ye'd only been a witch.
Diana Gabaldon
Lord, ye gave me a rare woman, and God! I loved her well.
Diana Gabaldon
I wouldna cross the road to see a scrawny woman if she was stark naked and dripping wet. ~Jamie Fraser
Diana Gabaldon

Diana Gabaldon
No wonder he was so good with horses, I thought blearily, feeling his fingers rubbing gently behind my ears, listening to the soothing, incomprehensible speech. If I were a horse, I’d let him ride me anywhere.
