More quotes by Nora Roberts
My fondest wish, I suppose, would be to die at the keyboard right after finishing a book, perhaps with a little time off to have some really good sex. It's not, 'Oh, thank God, this is book No. 250. I can die now.'
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
The most important aspect of any story, to me, is character.
Nora Roberts
The very young and the very old often saw what others could not. Or would not.
Nora Roberts
Didn't people consider what could happen if armies of farm animals united in revolt?
Nora Roberts
It's Major Ketchup in the bathroom with the laser scalpel. Hmm. He sliced a delicately herbed spear of asparagus. Obviously we were meant for each other as I can interpret that as you meaning something more like Colonel Mustard in the conservatory with the candlestick.
Nora Roberts
I don't think I am a traditional romantic who thinks about candlelight dinners and wonders if my husband is going to bring me flowers, though I'm delighted if he does. I'm more practical-minded. I find it incredibly romantic that my husband does the dishes.
Nora Roberts
Why couldn't she have this, just enjoy this, without creating obstacles, digging up problems, worrying about mistakes, about tomorrow's? Why let the maybe's, the what if's, the probabilities spoil something so lovely?
Nora Roberts
Aidan to Jude: What's wrong with running away if where you were didn't suit you? Doesn't it follow you're funning to something else? Something that does suit you?
Nora Roberts
I've found out that falling in love doesn't have anything to do with time. It can take a year or an instant. It happens when it's ready to happen.
Nora Roberts
That was the biggest problem with getting used to someone, she thought. You were lonely when they weren't there.
Nora Roberts
Mary Stewart will always be my goddess. I can pick up one of her early books - one I've read a dozen times - and still slide right into the story.
Nora Roberts
What about your crepe? Stuff It. She's crazy about you, Mavis commented. It's almost embarrassing, the way she fawns.
Nora Roberts
Oh, God. God, isn't that perfect? He's Dad. He's Dad with a layer of nerd. Solid, steady, chipping away so patiently, you don't even know you've had your shields hacked down until you're defenseless. It's the type. You're not in love with a type, you're in love with a man, Penny corrected. Or you're not.
Nora Roberts
Don't say hit and mountain in the same sentence.
Nora Roberts
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.
Nora Roberts
The worst, the very worst requirement of friendship, in Eve Dallas's opinion, was sitting through an entire evening of childbirth classes. What went on there--the sights, the sounds, the assault on all the senses--turned the blood cold.
Nora Roberts
Peabody, you never cease to amaze me. One day I'll tell you about my granny and her five lovers. Five lovers isn't abnormal for a woman's lifetime. Not in her lifetime last month. All at the same time. Peabody glanced up, deadpan. She's ninety-eight. I hope to take after her.
Nora Roberts
I don't think you can write - at least not well - if you don't love stories, love the written word.
Nora Roberts
A kiss isn't terminal. It is the way you do it.
