He was the kind of guy that made a woman want to rip his shirt open and watch the buttons scatter along with her inhibitions. Sylvia Day
You don't know how you haunt and bewilder me. You don't know how the cursed carelessness that is over-officious in helping me at every other turning of my life WON'T help me here. You have struck it dead, I think, and I sometimes wish you had struck me dead along with it. Charles Dickens
