More quotes by Virginia C. Andrews
Perhaps lovers aren't supposed to look down at the ground. That kind of story is told in symbols-and earth represents reality, and reality represents frustrations, chance illnesses, death, murder, and all kinds of other tragedies. Lovers are meant to look up at the sky, for up there no beautiful illusions can be trampled upon.
Virginia C. Andrews
Little rabbits have big ears.

Love, when it came and knocked on my door, was going to be enough. And that unknown author who'd written that if you had fame, it was not enough, and if you had wealth as well, it was still not enough, and if you had fame, wealth, and also love ... still it was not enough - boy, did I feel sorry for him.

I don't think she's ever coming back.

Life offers more than one chance, Cathy, you know that.
Virginia C. Andrews
It was the eyes. The secret of love was in the eyes. The way one person looked at another, the way eyes communicated and spoke when the lips never moved.

...for everything can come to those who have the desire,the drive, the dedication, and the determination. v.c.andrews

Children are very wise intuitively they know who loves them most, and who only pretends.

It is so appropriate to color hope yellow, like the sun we seldom saw. And as I begin to copy from the old memorandum journals that I kept for so long, a title comes as if inspired. 'Open the Window and Stand in the Sunshine.' Yet, I hesitate to name our story that. For I think of us more as flowers in the attic.
Virginia C. Andrews
Life is like that - twenty minutes of misery for every two seconds of joy.
Virginia C. Andrews
My thoughts took frantic flight, wanting to escape this prison, and seek out the wind so it could fan my hair and sting my skin, and make me feel alive again.
Virginia C. Andrews
I believe in God... but I don't believe in religion. Religion is used to manipulate and punish. Used in a thousand ways for profit for even in the church, money is still the 'real' God.
Virginia C. Andrews
A flower blooms best in a happy pot.
Virginia C. Andrews
It's funny how when you're little, you miss all the little lies. They float right past you, but you don't wonder about them much. For a long time, you think this is just something adults still do after being kids - pretend.
Virginia C. Andrews
Love, how often that word came up in books over and over again. If you had wealth and health, and beauty and talent...you had nothing if you didn't have love. Love changed all that was ordinary into something giddy, powerful, drunken, enchanted.
Virginia C. Andrews
There was a war going on in our house. A silent war that sounded no guns, and the bodies that fell were only wishes that died and the bullets were only words and the blood that spilled was always called pride.
Virginia C. Andrews
There is no hate such as that born out of love betrayed- and my brain screamed out for revenge.
Virginia C. Andrews
Love, in short is the most dangerous emotion human can experience

Maybe thats because we take criticism best from those we love and those who love us-Ethan

Tragedy had sent me headlong into reality. All the things I had seen before now looked different, even nature.
