More quotes by Nora Roberts
In the summer of 80, Silhouette bought my first book.
Nora Roberts
If love doesn't make a fool of us, what will?
Nora Roberts
I find I use the Internet more and more. It's just an invaluable tool. I do most of my research on the Net now - and certainly do the bulk of my communicating through email.
Nora Roberts
The man was useless as tits on a bull, but he didn't deserve to die like that.
Nora Roberts
He shook his head and eyed Roarke. You don't look like a cop. I'm not and thank you for noticing.
Nora Roberts
I had the blood and fire rule when my boys were young. You know, unless it's blood or fire, don't bother me.
Nora Roberts
You saved me, Eve. He watched her blink in absolute shock. What you are, what I feel for you, what we are together saved me. He kept his eyes on hers as he kissed her.
Nora Roberts
The very young and the very old often saw what others could not. Or would not.
Nora Roberts
It's not an exaggeration to say that they saved my life. Ray Quinn, then Cam and Ethan and Phil. They turned their world around for me, and because of it, turned mine around with it. Anna and Grace and Sybill, Aubrey too. They made a home for me, and nothing that happened before matters nearly as much as everything that came after.
Nora Roberts
Men are boys in bigger packages.
Nora Roberts
It takes a lot of spine and stomach to make yourself into something when no one gives you a foundation.
Nora Roberts
No. No, I don't believe you'd betray me with her. I don't believe you'd cheat on me. But I'm afraid, and I'm sick in my heart that you might look at her, then at me. And regret.
Nora Roberts
We all look. The lucky find.
Nora Roberts
Make a life with me, one that comes from love, one that I can watch grow in you. Only a fool would believe that what comes from what we have together would be anything but beautiful.
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
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
Didn't people consider what could happen if armies of farm animals united in revolt?
Nora Roberts
Into the night, in the dark, he lay beside her, listening to her breathe. He knew the varied and sundry reasons a man would kill. But none were more fierce, none were more vital than to hold safe what he loved.
Nora Roberts
I've wanted to be with you when I didn't have the right to.
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.
