Nora Roberts
Roarke: You'd enjoy flying more if you'd learn the controls. Eve: I'd rather pretend I'm on the ground. Roarke: And how many vehicles have you wrecked, had blown up, or destroyed in the last, oh, two years? Eve: Think about that, then imagine it happening when I'm at the wheel at thirty thousand feet. Roarke: Good point. I'll do the flying.
Nora Roberts
I long for typical days, but rarely get them any more.
Nora Roberts
My own sense of family, where I came from and what I made for myself is an important part of my life.
Nora Roberts
If you can't dance on it, it isn't coffee.
Nora Roberts
Evil cannot and will not be vanquished by evil. Dark will only swallow dark and deepen. The good and the light are the keenest weapons.
Nora Roberts
