“To fall in love with someone's thoughts - the most intimate, splendid romance.”
― Sanober Khan

“All things remarkable are surprisingly simple; albeit difficult to find.”

“My love has eyes blue as the sky.
Her warm, bright smile makes me want to try
To give her the world,
And when she's curled
Up in my arms where I can feel her touch,
I realize again that I love her so much.
My world has turned from black to white.
Kissing in starlight, basking in sunlight, dancing at midnight.'
~John's poem for Belle”
― Julia Quinn, Dancing at Midnight

“No, Belle needed him. He had to save her from a disastrous marriage. And then, he supposed, he'd simply marry her himself.

John wasn't unaware that he was about to pull one of the greatest about-faces in history. He could only hope that Belle would understand that he had realized she'd had been right all along. People made mistakes, didn't they? After all, he wasn't some infallible storybook hero.”
― Julia Quinn, Dancing at Midnight

“There's no shame compared to being beautiful with nothing in your brain, an ugly devil with wits is much better that the former.”

“I am certainly intrepid and splendid and sordid and strong; I can see why you'd want me! But I'm afraid I've left the kettle on or whatever it is people say when they're bored.”

“Prošle sedmice Bibi jo donijela je vijest da Jalilove kćerke Saideh i Naheed trebaju krenuti u Mehrijinu djevojačku školu u Heratu. Otad su se misli o učionici i učiteljima kovitlale u Mariaminoj glavi, slike sveski sa linijama, stupci brojeva i olovke što ostavljaju taman, debeo trag. Zamišljala je sebe u učionici sa drugim djevojčicama njenih godina. Žudjela je za tim da stavi linijar na stranicu sveske, i vuče crte koje izgledaju važno.”
― Khaled Hosseini, The Kite Runner & A Thousand Splendid Suns

“She obviously wasn't going fast enough, because he picked her up and dropped her out the window himself, where she landed in Dunford's waiting arms.

"You're here too?" she asked weakly.
"If I were you, I'd be grateful for my presence. Ashbourne is nearly ready to explode.”
― Julia Quinn, Splendid
