But then some one of her movements-turning, she twisted her hips to the left-and all at once I knew: I know her, I know that body resilient as a ship-my eyes, my lips, my hands know it-in one moment I was absolutely sure of it. Yevgeny Zamyatin
But it was the first time I had ever really used the place I knew and the things I felt in a piece of fiction, and there was a kind of dreadful exhiliration in seeing things that had troubled me for years come out in a new form, a form over which I had imposed control. Stephen King

From the very beginning Ihad felt a definite contact with Yeamon, a kind of tenuous understanding that talk is cheap in this league and that a man who knew what he was after had damn little time to find it, much less to sit back and explain himself. Hunter S. Thompson
Nicholas Sparks quote: "I knew even then how rare that kind of love is. Only the..."
I knew even then how rare that kind of love is. Only the luckiest people get to experience it at all. Nicholas Sparks
