love wasn't the soft, silky words the poets spoke of. Love,with it's twin edges, was the one factor that weakened so many women, that pushed them to compromised their own wants, their own needs for the needs and wants of another.

More quotes by Nora Roberts
It's not an exaggeration to say that they saved my life. Ray Quinn, then Cam and Ethan and Phil. They turned their world around for me, and because of it, turned mine around with it. Anna and Grace and Sybill, Aubrey too. They made a home for me, and nothing that happened before matters nearly as much as everything that came after.

Women are the worst. They zero in on some guy.Oh boy, he's the one, gotta get me that one. So they do. Then they spend the rest of their time trying to figure out how to change him. Then if they manage it, they're not all that interested anymore, because guess what? He's not the one anymore.

Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
Love without trust? It's not love at all.
Nora Roberts
If it winds up earlier, you should have a movie picked out. This is assuming she isn’t sending you the ‘let’s go back to my place’ signals. In that case—” “Don’t go there, Bob. Let’s just not go there.
Nora Roberts
I got you a present. Did you? It's a book of poetry--romancy stuff. I thought, 'How schmaltzy is that,' so it seemed like the thing. Then I screwed up and left it in my desk at work

One of my greatest pleasures is falling into a story someone else has written.
Nora Roberts
The man that put that hurt look in your eyes, could be worth everything, or nothing at all.
Nora Roberts
Up to this point your life has pretty much sucked. You’re not responsible for that. But you are responsible for what happens from here on.
Nora Roberts
Fine, you do that, and you tell them that at the very first opportunity, I'm coming down there and killing all of them. Mass murder. And after they're all dead, I'm going to kick the bodies around, dance on top of them, and sing a happy song. No jury will convict me.
Nora Roberts
It was best not to think, not to analyze. It was best to accept and act.
Nora Roberts
Grudges are bridges with faulty spans. Falling off one is a lot more rewarding than getting stuck on the other side.
Nora Roberts
Half full, half empty, what the hell difference does it make? If there's something in the damn glass, drink it.

My apartment's only about a block away. Isn't that handy. Fate, he countered as he took a seat on the sofa and made himself at home. Fantasic, isn't it? One day very soon, I'm going to tell you what you can do with that fate of yours.
