1 " Falling into ruin was a bit like falling in love: Both descents stripped you bare and left you as you were at your core. And both endings are equally painful. "
― J.R. Ward , Lover Unbound (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #5)
2 " Terrific. A bisexual dominant vampire with kidnapping expertise. "
3 " Tell you what, you let me go, and I’ll ask you plenty of questions about your race. Until then, I’m slightly distracted with how this little vacation on the good ship Holy Sh*t is going to pan out for me. "
4 " Gimme an S! A T! An O! A C! Followed by a K-H-O-L-M! What's it spell? HEAD FUCK.- Jane "
5 " An active mind didn't need distractions in its physical environment. It needed a collection of outstanding books and a good lamp. Maybe some cheese and crackers. "
6 " A book unopened alters not the ink on its pages. What is there is there. "
7 " Letting go meant you accepted what couldn't be changed. You didn't try to hold on to hope in order to coerce a change in fortune...nor did you battle against superior forces of fate and try to make them capitulate to your will...nor did you beg for salvation because you assumed you knew better. Letting go meant you stared at what was before you with clear eyes, recognizing that unfettered choice was the exception and destiny the rule. "
8 " But then, gifts are like beauty, are they not. It is in the eye of the recipient that they find their seat, not in the hand of the giver. "
9 " Okay, well...how's that water feeling, then?' 'Excuse me?' 'The Nile warm this time of the year? "
10 " Man, it was a good thing vampires didn't get cancer. Lately he'd been chain-smoking like a felon. "
11 " When I want you to beg, I'll tell you. "
12 " I love you. And I'm going to keep loving you even after you don't know I exist. "
13 " I believe there's a hand that guides us. It just isn't always a gentle one. Or one that seems fair at the time. But I dunno, I try to trust in it now. When I freak, I just try to... shit, I guess trust in it. Because at the end of the day, what else can you do? Choice only gets you so far. Reasoning and planning too. The rest... it's up to someone else. Where we end up, who we know, what happens to the people we love... we don't have a lot of control over any of it. "
14 " After all, tragedy didn't discriminate, so everyone was subject to the same whims of fate. "
15 " Qhuinn smiled, baring his fangs. 'Has anyone ever shown you the difference between good touch and bad touch? 'Cause I'd love to demonstrate. We could start right now. "
16 " If you're going to insist on being reasonable, I'm going to stop hanging with you. "
17 " If you eliminate all possible explanations, then the impossible is the answer. "
18 " Written on the mirror, revealed by the steam, were the words, I love you, Jane. "
19 " Butch nodded as if he knew exactly what was doing. "Like I said, my man, it's whatever. You and me? Same as always, no matter who you screw. Although… if you're into sheep, that would be tough. Don't know if I could handle that. "
20 " Love was worth sacrificing for, he thought as he left his room. Even if it wasn't yours. "
