I hope that's true, because I figured out why I'd never finished it, what I was waiting for. I was waiting for you, Clare. For them. For us. I want to finish it up for you, for them, for us.

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
I don't want to be expected to fall in passively someone else's plans for me. That's what I don't want. I don't want it assumed that I simply don't have any personal goals or wishes of my own. Or any basic competence of my own. That's what I don't want!
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 love tests? Well, yeah. There are questions and answers. True or false, multiple choice, essay. What's not to love?

Heroism's just doing more than you want to do or think you can. Sometimes it's just doing the crappy things, the unhappy things other people won't do....It's not just jumping out of a plane onto a glacier ten thousand feet up because there's nobody else there to do it. It's getting out of bed in the morning when it seems like too much trouble.
Nora Roberts
You're going to blow his socks off!

Nora Roberts
Love didn't run on logic. It didn't follow neat lines or a list of priorities.
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
It's more than you think it can be, she heard herself say. It changes everything, and fixes everything that matters. 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
The very young and the very old often saw what others could not. Or would not.
Nora Roberts
Everything I know, I learned from dogs.
Nora Roberts
If that isn't typical male stupidity! If something doesn't work, kick it or swear at it!
Nora Roberts
I think things happen between people for a reason.
Nora Roberts
Grudges are bridges with faulty spans. Falling off one is a lot more rewarding than getting stuck on the other side.
Nora Roberts
A relationship isn't something that has to be created in a day or perfected in a day. Part of the game is to keep working on it. It's something that'll always be just a little flawed.
Nora Roberts
Women are the worst. They zero in on some guy.Oh boy, he's the one, gotta get me that one. So they do. Then they spend the rest of their time trying to figure out how to change him. Then if they manage it, they're not all that interested anymore, because guess what? He's not the one anymore.

The most important aspect of any story, to me, is character.
Nora Roberts
It’s good to be with someone when you know you matter. Not assume,” she qualified, “but know. To be with someone, who even when you don’t think you want or need it, will stand up for you. Someone who sends you flowers and buys you magic wands. I’m not going to look around the corner for what’s next.
