swear QUOTES

1 " By the time you swear you're his,
Shivering and sighing.
And he vows his passion is,
Infinite, undying.
Lady make note of this --
One of you is lying. "

― Dorothy Parker

2 " Love is the ultimate outlaw. It just won't adhere to any rules. The most any of us can do is to sign on as its accomplice. Instead of vowing to honor and obey, maybe we should swear to aid and abet. That would mean that security is out of the question. The words " make" and " stay" become inappropriate. My love for you has no strings attached. I love you for free. "

3 " Name one hero who was happy." I considered. Heracles went mad and killed his family; Theseus lost his bride and father; Jason's children and new wife were murdered by his old; Bellerophon killed the Chimera but was crippled by the fall from Pegasus' back." You can't." He was sitting up now, leaning forward." I can't." " I know. They never let you be famous AND happy." He lifted an eyebrow. " I'll tell you a secret." " Tell me." I loved it when he was like this." I'm going to be the first." He took my palm and held it to his. " Swear it." " Why me?" " Because you're the reason. Swear it." " I swear it," I said, lost in the high color of his cheeks, the flame in his eyes." I swear it," he echoed.We sat like that a moment, hands touching. He grinned." I feel like I could eat the world raw. "

4 " since feeling is first
who pays any attention
to the syntax of things
will never wholly kiss you;

wholly to be a fool
while Spring is in the world

my blood approves,
and kisses are a far better fate
than wisdom
lady i swear by all flowers. Don't cry
--the best gesture of my brain is less than
your eyelids' flutter which says

we are for eachother: then
laugh, leaning back in my arms
for life's not a paragraph

And death i think is no parenthesis "

― E.E. Cummings

8 " How can you still count yourself a knight, when you have forsaken every vow you ever swore?" Jaime reached for the flagon to refill his cup. " So many vows...they make you swear and swear. Defend the king. Obey the king. Keep his secrets. Do his bidding. Your life for his. But obey your father. Love your sister. Protect the innocent. Defend the weak. Respect the gods. Obey the laws. It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or the other. "

9 " Many, many readers have written asking me wistfully about the nature of Sam and Grace's relationship, and I can assure you, that sort is absolutely real. Mutual, respectful, enduring love is completely attainable as long as you swear you won't settle for less. "

― Maggie Stiefvater , Forever (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #3)

10 " And there is my payment the rubies in your cheeks. Are you properly scandalized by your wicked behavior? If you were Catholic, you'd singe the ears of the priest you confessed to. Do you remember making me swear to repeat all those naughty actions agian, no matter what you said this morning?" Now that he brought it up, I did recall saying that. Great Betrayed by my own immorality. " God, Bones...some of that was depraved." " I'll take that as a compliment." He closed the distance between us." I love you. Don't be ashamed of anything we did, even if your prudery is on life support. "

11 " I've got you. I swear to God, I've got you," said Noah. " Stay with me, Echo." I wanted to. I wanted to stay with him, but the shouting and screams and glass breaking in my mind grew louder. " Make it stop." He tightened his grip on my arms. " Fight, Echo! You've got to fucking fight. Come on, baby. You're safe. "
