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 man that put that hurt look in your eyes, could be worth everything, or nothing at all.
Nora Roberts
Once you considered failure you were one step farther away from success.
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
Men didn't respect beauty...they used 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
It was best not to think, not to analyze. It was best to accept and act.
Nora Roberts
If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it.
Nora Roberts
What is technology?... It's another god.
