61 " You don't feel yourself falling in love, like it's a journey, a process; on the contrary, it hits you like a sudden ague, a fever, the realisation that your life will never be the same again. "
― Chloe Thurlow , Katie in Love
62 " Always say yes and try before you say no. "
63 " An attractive woman becomes beautiful when she's happy and in love. "
64 " Falling in love is like falling from a high cliff into a warm silky sea, the falling is like flying and the landing is like a glimpse of the divine. "
65 " You wait and wait, you get used to waiting. But when your time comes, you must not miss it. "
66 " Love is the colour of spring sunshine muted through old windows. Love has a taste, a texture - dark chocolate with pistachios; a sound - wind chimes echoing from a distant hill; a rhythm - the tango, obviously. "
67 " There is only one secret to great writing and that's great writing. "
68 " They say the best things in life are free, and they are if you can afford them. "
69 " Reading - like masturbation - is something you do alone and very little in life brings more pleasure. "
70 " You enter a book as if you are setting out on a journey and, if it is a good book, you will be a different person when you reach the end. "
71 " I love book books, real books, books with spines and heart, dust jackets, books that smell of books. Take the frame from a painting and you have a painting, not art. Take the pages from a book and print them on a screen and you have the ghost of a book. Not a book. "
72 " Inner beauty is never found in the mirror. "
73 " Red goes with everything and red goes with nothing. "
74 " Words have a taste, sweet but subtle, like dark chocolate; the scent of old bookshops; a flamenco rhythm; the feeling of the rain on your face on sunny days. Words are cruel and spiteful sometimes, wise and loving at others. "
75 " Some people never take a chance and never know what it's like to live life to the full. "
76 " Lips are the outward sign, the emblem of desire, and lipstick is the ink in which we graffiti that message on our smile, our pout and pucker. When a girl blows a man a kiss she is sending him a piece of her soul. "
77 " Lipstick comes in phallic-shaped tubes. With just a breath of imagination, it feels as if you are holding a miniature penis, rubbing the head over your half-opened lips before squeezing down to spread the oily soft blush evenly over every curve and into every corner. "
78 " Your facial lips and the butterfly lips of your vagina are connected by a fine invisible circuit. When you take a hard cock into your mouth, the feeling of pleasure zips in pulsing waves down through your body and rings the bell of your clitoris. The vulva swells with blood and the sensation is carnal, exquisite, the essence of femininity. "
79 " Sex with a stranger makes you feel decadent, a risk taker, young again. Sex with a stranger is life on the edge. Everything else is life wrapped in cotton wool. "
80 " Powerful men need a woman as a sign of their power. Strong women do not need a man, she either wants him or she doesn't. "
