More quotes by Nora Roberts
I think I've just lost five pounds in fear sweat. Peabody mopped at her face. Now I want a cannoli. I don't know why. With a laugh, Roarke shifted to grin at her. I'll buy you a dozen, precious. Cannolis, for God's sake.

I always thought everybody made up stories in their heads - never thought about actually writing them down on paper until I was snowed in with the kids in the blizzard of '79 - 3 feet of snow. I live in a rural area and was stuck. No morning kindergarten - it was a nightmare.

Nora Roberts
You have to unhook your seat belt. That's not true. I'm afraid it's difficult to walk on the beach if you're strapped to a car seat.
Nora Roberts
What is technology?... It's another god.
Nora Roberts
It's about us. It's about trust.
Nora Roberts
Pretending the past doesn't exist is as bad as living in it.
Nora Roberts
I don't kick a man when he's down, unless I'm the one who put him down in the first place. I don't put him down unless he deserves it. And I don't break my word if I give it. So I'll give you my word.
Nora Roberts
It's an exceptional thing to have someone in your life who knows and understands you so well. Who loves who you are. A very exceptional thing.
Nora Roberts
He wanted to heave the glasses against the wall. Break them, break everything he could reach. Beat it, rend it. He stared out the window, imagined the city in flames, consumed to ashes. And still it wasn't enough.
Nora Roberts
- How is he in bed? Gladiator or poet? - Hmmm... A poetic gladiator.
Nora Roberts
She wants to learn how to handle a gun. Well, I want George Clooney naked in my bed, but I haven't attempted kidnapping. Yet.
