1 " Immeasurably, baby. I love you immeasurably. "
― Katy Evans , Commander in Chief (White House, #2)
2 " I think she is marvelous. She is untouched by politics, unmarred and untainted. She is absolutely, brilliantly humble. Honest, hardworking. And it would be my honor that she accept to be my wife. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a country to govern and a woman to woo. "

4 " He’s the president now, but he’s still Matt. My first crush, my first love. And I know that after Matt, I’ll never want or love another man again. "
5 " I am in love with the first lady of the United States. At the moment, a dozen vans from District florists are pulling up at the White House, and the staffers are helping me fill up her room. I’m going to ask her to marry me. Today. "

11 " If you want to make a difference, you need to start today." ~ Matt "
12 " No, we don’t live in a fairy-tale world, but between all the bad things, there are these moments, these people, these glimpses of who we are—good. Who we love. How hard. How true. Which is why we cling to every reminder of that good to steer us back, to find the path to where we want to go. Where we deserve to be. Happy. Free. And loved. "
13 " Then I "
14 " Why is it that when the opportunity finally comes, the fear is so great, you almost want to back down? "
15 " They say to grow as a person you need to challenge yourself, go for something higher, something that you might fail at, even. "
16 " The tiniest change is still change, the ripples from it sometimes farther and wider than you’d ever think. "
17 " I want to touch lives in the way that Matthew and his father touched mine, the day they came to dinner at my home and treated me as if I had something good to offer. We all do; sometimes we just need someone to tell us. "
