1 " After you've taken so much trouble to set up recorder, you ask me now? "
― E.L. James , Fifty Shades Trilogy (Fifty Shades, #1-3)
2 " Weirdly, all the wood, dark walls, moody lighting, and oxblood leather makes the room kind of soft and romantic … I know it’s anything but; this is Christian’s version of soft and romantic. "
3 " Look at me,” he breathes, and I stare up into his smoldering gaze. It is his Dom gaze—cold, hard, and sexy as hell, seven shades of sin in one enticing look. "
4 " Because I can. "
5 " He makes you the person you want to be, instead of the person you are, and that, the idea of life without him is, not only unbearable, it's unimaginable. "
6 " You are mine. "
7 " Anastasia, you should steer clear of me. I’m not the man for you,” he whispers. "
8 " And you decided that it was nice knowing me? Do you mean knowing me in the biblical sense?” Oh, shit. I flush. “I didn’t think you were familiar with the Bible.” “I went to Sunday school, Anastasia. It taught me a great deal.” “I don’t remember reading about nipple clamps in the Bible. Perhaps you were taught from a modern translation.” His lips arch with a trace of a smile, and my eyes are drawn to his mouth. “Well, I thought I should come and remind you how nice it was knowing me. "
9 " I love you, Anastasia. I will do everything in my power to protect you. I cannot imagine my life without you. "
10 " But the only way you are going to sort the problem, whatever it is, is to talk it through with him. You can do all the thinking you like—but until you actually talk, you’re not going to get anywhere. "
11 " Follow your heart, darling, and please, please—try not to overthink things. Relax and enjoy yourself. "
12 " Don’t,” he murmurs, then kisses me lightly. “Why don’t you like to be touched?” I whisper, staring up into soft gray eyes. “Because I’m fifty shades of fucked up, Anastasia. "
13 " And the rules?” “No rules.” “None at all? But you have needs.” “I need you more, Anastasia. These last few days have been hell. "
14 " You make me feel cherished.” “That’s because you are,” he murmurs, "
15 " The world of Katherine Kavanagh is very clear, very black and white. Not the intangible, mysterious, vague hues of gray that color my world. Welcome to my world. "
16 " We cross the expansive, bustling lobby of the hotel toward the entrance, but Grey avoids the revolving door, and I wonder if that’s because he’d have to let go of my hand. "
17 " We’ve chased the dawn, Anastasia, now the dusk, "
18 " In the back of my mind, my mother’s often-recited warning comes to me: Never trust a man who can dance. "
19 " Anastasia, you were comatose. Necrophilia is not my thing. I like my women sentient and receptive,” he says dryly. "
20 " Right now I want to go and join him in the shower. I have never felt this way about anyone. My hormones are racing. My skin tingles where his thumb traced over my face and lower lip. I’m squirming with a needy, achy … discomfort. I don’t understand this reaction. Hmm … Desire. This is desire. This is what it feels like. "
