More quotes by Laurell K. Hamilton
It has been my experience that women tell more intimate details to their friends than men do. Men may brag more, but women will talk the nitty-gritty and share the experience more.
Laurell K. Hamilton
When you dance with the devil, it might as well be a devil who can give you your own corner of hell to rule.

His eyes widened just a bit, his lips flexed. I realized he was trying not to laugh. I hate it when people find my threats amusing.

trust me, Anita, if you get dead, especially if he blames himself in any way, he will be a force of destruction looking for a place to be aimed. And he's blamed himself for introducing you to Olaf here from the get-go. If Olaf did to you what he's done to some of his other victims, Edward would drown the world in blood to erase those images.

Edward's grief if you die will be a terrible thing. It will hurt him, a lot, and men like him never grieve alone. He will spread his grief all over us, not because we failed, but because it'll give him something to focus on so he doesn't have to feel the pain.

I, Anita Blake, scourge of the undead-the human with more vampire kills than any other vampire executioner in the country-was dating a vampire. It was poetically ironic.
Laurell K. Hamilton
Men don't settle down because of the right woman. They settle down because they are finally ready for it. Whatever woman they're dating when they get ready is the one they settle down with, not necessarily the best one or the prettiest, just the one who happened to be on hand when the time got to be right. Unromantic, but still true.

I kissed him on the cheek and left to find Bobby Lee. Him, I trusted to be in the line of fire. But it was more than that: I wasn't sleeping with bobby Lee. I didn't love him. Sometimes love makes you selfish. Sometimes it makes you stupid. Sometimes it reminds you why you love your gun.
Laurell K. Hamilton
Only those who have never known fear are allowed to think less of others for being afraid. Frankly, I think anyone who has never been afraid of anything in their entire life is either a liar or lacks imagination.
Laurell K. Hamilton
No name-calling truly bites deep unless, in some dark part of us, we believe it. If we are confident enough then it is just noise.

He's not going to shoot us in the back by accident, is he? Deputy Coltrain asked. I smiled, not sweetly. He promised not to.
Laurell K. Hamilton
I talk to myself everyone once in a while. Give myself very good advice. Sometimes I even take it.

People go away and they don't come back.
Laurell K. Hamilton
Before I knew you, I thought brave was not being afraid. You've taught me that bravery is being terrified and doing it anyway.

Now that's an Okay that really means Okay, not that Okay that women use that means everything but Okay.

I'd killed him in the end, but revenge only makes things all better in the movies. In real life, once the villain is dead the trauma lives on inside the victims.
Laurell K. Hamilton
I thought of several alec smart remarks, but you should humor crazy people when you're at their mercy it's a rule.

Every religion has demons.... Nothing like a real, live demon to give you some of that old-time religion.
Laurell K. Hamilton
You can't save everybody. In fact, there are days when I think you can't save anyone. Each person has to save himself first, then you can move in and help. I have found this philosophy does not work during a gun battle, or a knife fight either. Outside of that it works just fine.
