1 " Having friends was weird . . . but in a good way. "
― Gwenda Bond , Triple Threat (Lois Lane, #3)
2 " I imagined it was far better to be optimistic, to proceed assuming wherever you could that you had cared enough, that you'd made a difference, that you would again. Dwelling on the worst was no way to live. "
3 " I didn't mind walking into danger on my own. Not the concept of it, anyway. "
4 " Oh no. Maybe I'd gotten too cocky. I was still relatively new to this friend business. Had I screwed up even asking? Should I have waited for her to offer up details? "
5 " Please, I'm your friend -- inside that tough-girl shell is a really tough girl. But you're motivated by how much you care. Being part of Team Lois, it's an honor. There's nothing you wouldn't do for any of us. "
6 " It figured my family would get along better with Clark than they did me. "
7 " The man was a bully. A bully who'd elevated himself to a high-level position, but a bully just the same. No amount of flattery would change how I saw him. "
8 " He listens when I talk. "
9 " This was the first time I had not just rushed in and followed my instincts, and it wasn't working out. I was beginning to actively regret it. "
10 " Sometimes, if you have faith in people they'll surprise you. Mom and Dad taught me that. Risk is the price of believing most people want to be good. "
11 " For the most part, I did trust my own judgement. But I was more than capable of screwing up. Just, sometimes, I forgot about that in my quest to move forward. "
12 " Lesson: Never underestimate a woman. Or a chef. "
13 " The thrill of working in this building, with its iconic globe on top, would never fade. "
14 " Fear didn't suit me. "
15 " Our first real kiss was better than fireworks and flying and front-page news all rolled into one. "
