"I don't need handcuffs to enslave a woman."-Ranger to Stephanie"

"I have tried to let you go and I cannot. I cannot stop thinking of you. I cannot stop dreaming about you."

"..he wanted her.And at another time, as another man, he would have her. Without hesitation. As lover. . . as more."

"Just remember that the only question in a house is who is to rule. The rest is only dancing around that, trying not to look it in the eye."

"A squeegee is a sponge on a stick, and if there is a tangible item that’s more romantic, I don’t know what it is. Never go on a first date without one."

"I have a Rubik’s Cube for a heart, and my love for you is no puzzle. Through twists and spins, life can only get more colorful."

"I know this woman.”“Who the hell is she?”He stared both his brothers down. “She’s mine."

"We were hooked when we woke.We had arms for each other.But I yearned to resumeMy dreams of another."

"I don't think two people could have been happier than we have been."

"I watched you while you were sleeping and you looked completely at peace. I wish I could feel that. I wish I could close my eyes and feel at peace. But I can’t. I can’t feel anything if I’m notwith you, and even then all I can do is want something that I don’t think I can ever have, at least not now. So I left this, and my peace, with you. Stark."

"It's so much easier to convince yourself you're madly in love with someone when you know nothing about him."

"Giving generously in romantic relationships, and in all other bonds, means recognizing when the other person needs our attention. Attention is an important resource."

"I knew, you would do me good, in some way, at some time;- I saw it in your eyes when I first beheld you: their expression and smile did not- (again he stopped)- did not (he proceeded hastily) strike delight to my very inmost heart so for nothing."

"She’d felt it before, she felt it now: the pull to fall in with him, to fall into him, to lose her sense of self."

"She had not made a decision to give up sex, only the clamor of romance, because it was exhausting her, doing her no good and too much harm..."

"Disagreements over money are the biggest cause of divorce."She waved her hand. "Absolutely no problem. Your money is our money. My money is my money."She wrote away."I should make you negotiate with Phoebe."

"Hanson got to sleep with you, and I didn't,” he said, his own jaw a little tight. “So I stole his car."

"Attraction is not an option."

"Ah, well.” He smiled-another one of those devastatingly intoxicating smiles that did unreasonable things to her body temperature and respiration.With a nod and a respectful, “Ma’am,” he left her in the middle of the room.Feeling like she’d been hit by a tank."

"Does that count as an argument? Can we kiss and make up now?”"It was only half an argument.”“Fine. Then, you kiss and I’ll make up.”I laughed until he effectively shut me up with his lips."
