Men are boys in bigger packages.
Nora Roberts
Dinner's in one hour. If you're not back, sitting at the table, I'll beat you all unconscious with a spatula.
Nora Roberts
Some things in life are out of your control. You can make it a party or a tragedy.
Nora Roberts

Nora Roberts
Oh, God. God, isn't that perfect? He's Dad. He's Dad with a layer of nerd. Solid, steady, chipping away so patiently, you don't even know you've had your shields hacked down until you're defenseless. It's the type. You're not in love with a type, you're in love with a man, Penny corrected. Or you're not.

Nora Roberts
My fondest wish, I suppose, would be to die at the keyboard right after finishing a book, perhaps with a little time off to have some really good sex. It's not, 'Oh, thank God, this is book No. 250. I can die now.'
Nora Roberts
We all look. The lucky find.
Nora Roberts
In all the illusions, you're the only truth that I need
Nora Roberts
It takes a lot of spine and stomach to make yourself into something when no one gives you a foundation.
Nora Roberts
If you write in category, you write knowing there's a framework, there are reader expectations.
Nora Roberts
Why is it you think you'll live forever and why do you want to, I'd like to know, when you deny yourselves so many of the basic pleasures in life?
Nora Roberts
There's no reward without work, no victory without effort, no battle won without risk.
Nora Roberts
You bring the color and the life. It's a lucky man who is offered that color and life, and a wise one who values it.
Nora Roberts
Why couldn't she have this, just enjoy this, without creating obstacles, digging up problems, worrying about mistakes, about tomorrow's? Why let the maybe's, the what if's, the probabilities spoil something so lovely?
Nora Roberts
