1 " Cats can do whatever they want, whenever they want, without regard to what anyone says or does. Rather like Princesses. "

― Terry Brooks , A Princess of Landover (Magic Kingdom of Landover, #6)

2 " A cat never discusses his business with humans, not even Princesses. A cat never explains and never apologizes. A cat never alibis. You must accept a cat as it is and for what it is and not expect more than the pleasure of its company. "

― Terry Brooks , A Princess of Landover (Magic Kingdom of Landover, #6)

4 " It is my job to know things," the cat said. "Cats know lots of things about the world and its creatures, especially people. Cats watch and listen. It is what they do best. "

5 " Kiss me," she told him impulsively. "Right now. Like you mean it. Like you might not get another chance."
He did so, on the mouth, a long kiss that caused Pinch, standing in the doorway, to gasp and mutter in dismay. She closed her eyes and leaned into the kiss. So sweet, so exciting. "

7 " It is not true that things are never as bad as they seem or that grass is always greener on the other side of the fence or that there is a silver lining inside every cloud. These are things we wish were true, but which are more often than not false hopes. "

― Terry Brooks , A Princess of Landover (Magic Kingdom of Landover, #6)

8 " It isn't a good idea to force young girls to marry," Stabo lectured, looking from one man to the other. “Marriage, in general, isn't a particularly desirable institution. It causes all sorts of trouble, from what I have observed over the centuries. In any case, a Princess shouldn't marry this young, the issue of the advisability of marriage aside. She should be free to grow up and spend time with more interesting creatures than prospective husbands. Dragons, for instance. We're much more interesting than you, Laphroig. Or you, Craswell. So be warned. If I hear any further attempts at forcing this girl to marry either one of you or anyone you know or even anyone I think you know, I will not be so lenient. "
