I have no idea why it apparently takes three grown men to cook some hamburgers. One to cook, one to kibbitz, and one to insult the other two.
Nora Roberts
I think she was the love of his life. When you've got one of those, it does stuff to you. It makes you think about them even when you're doing routine things. It makes you want to protect them, to make them happy and safe.
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
I think sometimes fate cuts you a break. Like it says, okay, you've had enough of that crap, so it's time you fell into something nice. See what you make out of it.

Nora Roberts
I hate patience. Slows everything down.
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
We all look. The lucky find.
Nora Roberts
I don't think you can write - at least not well - if you don't love stories, love the written word.
Nora Roberts
We're not blank slates. What we've done, what we've survived all go into us.
Nora Roberts
Okay. Look, why don't you take care of the half a million things you've been letting dangle in Roarke's Empire of Everything? Catchy title. I may use it one day.
Nora Roberts
She, as no other ever could, reached every corner of his heart. His joy, and his salvation.
Nora Roberts
Men didn't respect beauty...they used it.
Nora Roberts
Are you telling me you're cooking me dinner?- Regan Its the quickest way, without physical contact, to get a woman into bed. The kitchen through there?
Nora Roberts
If you do not step forward you will always remain where you are.
Nora Roberts
There's an oatmeal cookie in there. I see no reason for the existence of oatmeal, particularly in cookies.
Nora Roberts
Love didn't run on logic. It didn't follow neat lines or a list of priorities.
Nora Roberts
