Laurel: I don't need a ring or a license, or a spetacular white dress. It's not marriage so much, or at all really, that matters. It's the promise. It's the knowing someone wants me to be part of his life. Someone loves me, that I'm the one for him. That's not just enough, it's everything. Nora Roberts

Last week, I had to offer my publisher a bottle that was far too good for him, simply because there was nothing between the insulting and the superlative. A. J. Liebling
But what happens when her beauty is torn from her like a cover from a book? Will he care to read her then, although her pages speak of nothing but love for him? Pearl S. Buck
This was his world, he said to himself, the sad, oppressive world that God had provided for him, and he was responsible to it. Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The writer walks out of his workroom in a daze. He wants a drink. He needs it. It happens to be a fact that nearly every writer of fiction in the world drinks more whisky than is good for him. He does it to give himself faith hope and courage. A person is a fool to become a writer. His only compensation is absolute freedom. He has no master except his own soul and that I am sure is why he does it. Roald Dahl
the haughty princess of Austria, who became, as queen of England, the head of fashion, looked with harsh eyes on his defects, and with contempt on the affection her royal husband entertained for him. Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Leo Tolstoy quote: "but that what was for him the greatest and most cruel..."
but that what was for him the greatest and most cruel injustice appeared to others a quite ordinary occurrence. Leo Tolstoy
Nicholas Sparks quote: "She was a stranger now, but she'd been a friend once, and that..."
She was a stranger now, but she'd been a friend once, and that was enough for him. Nicholas Sparks
Marshall Shafter...kept pasted in his desk drawer a piece of paper he looked at from time to time to remind himself of something. It said, "A fool can put on his own clothes better than wise man can do it for him. Jane Jacobs
A fairy tale...on the other hand, demands of the reader total surrender; so long as he is in its world, there must be for him no other. W. H. Auden
Fairy tales do not give the child his first idea of bogey. What fairy tales give the child is his first clear idea of the possible defeat of bogey. The baby has known the dragon intimately ever since he had an imagination. What the fairy tale provides for him is a St. George to kill the dragon. Gilbert K. Chesterton
