More quotes by Nora Roberts
There it was, Eve supposed. There was the answer to why people got tangled up with people. Because when you were down, when you were wallowing, someone you mattered to would ask if you were okay.
Nora Roberts
That was the biggest problem with getting used to someone, she thought. You were lonely when they weren't there.
Nora Roberts
You--Roarke. Eyes watering, she reached for more tissue. Jesus, Eve. Jesus Christ, you never sleep with anybody. And you're telling me you slept with Roarke? That's not precisely accurate. We didn't sleep.
Nora Roberts
How's it going down there? It's weird. They're too polite, they talk funny, and stuff has too much shine on it. But the coffee's worse than Central's, so that's something.
Nora Roberts
I don't base any character on a real person, and really don't do composites either. I make them up.
Nora Roberts
I don't believe for one moment you can write well what you wouldn't read for pleasure.
Nora Roberts
Marry me, Rebecca...You might as well say yes. I'll just talk you into it.
Nora Roberts
When the going gets tough, the tough eat ribs.
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
Something your father wouldn't have told you, he began. Taking blood, it leaves a mark on you. No matter how it's done, or how it's justified, it leaves a mark that goes in deep. Be sure you're willing to wear that mark before you take the blood.
Nora Roberts
Roarke: The bodies of the three men were found floating in the Chattahoochee River. Eve: I think it'd be embarrassing to be dead in the Hoochie-Coochie River. Roarke: Chattahoochee Eve: What's the difference? Roarke: Quite a bit, I'd think.
Nora Roberts
Half full, half empty, what the hell difference does it make? If there's something in the damn glass, drink it.
Nora Roberts
Earrings are like orgasms. You can never have too many. I never thought about it quite that way. Well, you're a man. She gave his knee a friendly pat.
Nora Roberts
She surrounded herself with books at work and at home. Her living space was a testament to her first and abiding love with shelves jammed with books tables crowded with them. She saw them not only as knowledge entertainment comfort even sanity but as a kind of artful decoration.
Nora Roberts
She raised her eyes to his. They had both come from misery, she thought, and survived it. They had been drawn together through violence and tragedy, and had overcome it. They walked different paths and had found a mutual route. Some things last, she thought. Some ordinary things. Like love.
Nora Roberts
I want to keep you, till the end of days.
Nora Roberts
A ghra. A amhain. My love. My only.
Nora Roberts
know what you want, work to get it, then value it once you have it.
Nora Roberts
You have to believe in it to get it.
Nora Roberts
I don't think you can write - at least not well - if you don't love stories, love the written word.
