Maybe you're never going to be the same, and maybe part of you is always afraid of what will happen if...but he's always going to be there. All you have to do is reach out, and he's going to be there.

Nora Roberts
Life has very little even ground.
Nora Roberts
Every writer has to figure out what works best - and often has to select and discard different tools before they find the one that fits.
Nora Roberts
You don't fix a man the way you do a fault in a pipe or a leak in a roof. You take him as he is, Mary Brenna, or you don't take him at all...adjustments can't be all made on one side, darling, else the balance goes off and what's being built just falls down.
Nora Roberts
Love and magic have a great deal in common. They enrich the soul, delight the heart. And they both take practice.
Nora Roberts
God is dead and I am his replacement.
Nora Roberts
