I'm still picking pockets--I just do it as legally as I can. Being married to a cop limits certain activities.

More quotes by Nora Roberts
He was one of the many toads you have to go through to find the prince.
Nora Roberts
Retirement wasn't a reward at the end of a well-run career ... it was a void surrounded by endless dull hours, haunted by memories of work.
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
The man was useless as tits on a bull, but he didn't deserve to die like that.
Nora Roberts
Mary Stewart will always be my goddess. I can pick up one of her early books - one I've read a dozen times - and still slide right into the story.
Nora Roberts
One of my greatest pleasures is falling into a story someone else has written.
Nora Roberts
The man that put that hurt look in your eyes, could be worth everything, or nothing at all.
Nora Roberts
I'm damned if I'm going to be eaten by a bear when I'm naked. I'm sure it's a more pleasant experience dressed.
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
When the going gets tough, the tough eat ribs.
Nora Roberts
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
I don't let myself believe in writer's block. I feel very strongly writing is habit as much as an art or a craft. And if you write crap, you're still writing.
Nora Roberts
...She'd gone past interest, swung into attraction, burst through lust, tripped over affection, and was now skidding out of control into love.
Nora Roberts
We're not blank slates. What we've done, what we've survived all go into us.
Nora Roberts
A writer never finds the time to write. A writer makes it. If you don't have the drive, the discipline, and the desire, then you can have all the talent in the world, and you aren't going to finish a book.
Nora Roberts
My boyfriend and I are badasses.
Nora Roberts
You're going to blow his socks off!
Nora Roberts
Happily ever after? If justice doesn't triumph and love doesn't make the circle in entertainment fiction, what's the point? Real life sucks too often.
Nora Roberts
I have to say you don't look anything like a policewoman. Maxia's perfect eyebrows arched as she gave Eve's dress a quick scan. Leonardo dresses you, doesn't he? No, I usually do it myself.
Nora Roberts
The man's got more money than God, and he sends you a bag of coffee?
Nora Roberts
