Hugh and I have been together for so long that in order to arouse extraordinary passion, we need to engage in physical combat. Once, he hit me on the back of the head with a broken wineglass, and I fell to the floor pretending to be unconscious. That was romantic, or would have been had he rushed to my side rather than stepping over my body to fetch the dustpan.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by David Sedaris, Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim
He then put both hands on the door on either side of my head and leaned in close, pinning me against it. I trembled like a downy rabbit caught in the clutches of a wolf. The wolf came closer. He bent his head and began nuzzling my cheek. The problem was…I wanted the wolf to devour me.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Colleen Houck, Tiger's Curse
Three years? That's a thousand tomorrows, ma'am.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Karen Kingsbury
I’m not a woman you bring home to Mother, pick out china patterns with, or Mary forefend, breed. I’ve seen a chunk of the universe, true, but there’s still so much more to see. I doubt I’ll ever cure this wanderlust, and I’m content with dedicating my life to failing to sate it... He’s never going to sit at my feet and write me poems, which is good because I hate poetry, except dirty ones that rhyme.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Ann Aguirre, Grimspace
So, Beav, tell me about yourself."
"I'm Blue."
"Sweetheart, if I had your dubious taste in men, I wouldn't be too happy, either."
"My name is Blue. Blue Bailey.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Natural Born Charmer
I feel…and I have reason to believe…that we could come to mean something to each other.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Colleen Houck
Alpha bitches are all the same underneath. Don't know how to give an inch even if their damn fool lives depend on it.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Moira Rogers, A Safe Harbor
When a man finds the woman he really loves, the one he respects and wants to call wife, there is nothing on earth he won't do for her. No mountain he won't hike. No river he won't wade. No door he won't open. She is Eve and there's not a snake crawling that can keep them apart.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Yolanda Joe
Don't leave a piece of jewelry at his house so you can go back and get it later; he may be with his real girlfriend.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Amy Sedaris, I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence
With a chaste heart
With pure eyes I celebrate your beauty
Holding the leash of blood
So that it might leap out and trace your outline
Where you lie down in my Ode
As in a land of forests or in surf
In aromatic loam, or in sea music
Beautiful nude
Equally beautiful your feet
Arched by primeval tap of wind or sound
Your ears, small shells
Of the splendid American sea
Your breasts of level plentitude
Fulfilled by living light
Your flying eyelids of wheat
Revealing or enclosing
The two deep countries of your eyes
The line your shoulders have divided into pale regions
Loses itself and blends into the compact halves of an apple
Continues separating your beauty down into two columns of
Burnished gold
Fine alabaster
To sink into the two grapes of your feet
Where your twin symmetrical tree burns again and rises
Flowering fire
Open chandelier
A swelling fruit
Over the pact of sea and earth
From what materials
Agate?
Quartz?
Wheat?
Did your body come together?
Swelling like baking bread to signal silvered hills
The cleavage of one petal
Sweet fruits of a deep velvet
Until alone remained
Astonished
The fine and firm feminine form
It is not only light that falls over the world spreading inside your body
Yet suffocate itself
So much is clarity
Taking its leave of you
As if you were on fire within
The moon lives in the lining of your skin.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Pablo Neruda
My God, Jack - with a look like that, you two should just get a room. And try not to pick the one with a dead body next to it this time.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Julie James, Something About You
The tragedy of preparedness has scarcely been handled, save by the Greeks. Life is indeed dangerous, but not in the way morality would have us believe. It is indeed unmanageable, but the essence of it is not a battle. It is unmanageable because it is a romance, and its essence is romantic beauty.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by E.M. Forster, Howards End
Love . . . is like nature, but in reverse; first it fruits, then it flowers, then it seems to wither, then it goes deep, deep down into its burrow, where no one sees it, where it is lost from sight, and ultimately people die with that secret buried inside their souls.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Edna O'Brien, Lantern Slides: Short Stories
My ideas about vampires may by romantic, but your attitudes toward women need a major overhaul.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Deborah Harkness, A Discovery of Witches
Curse him for being all tight muscle, with ivory skin and a mouth as soft as rose petals. Curse him for having hair as fair as the sun, and eyes as black as night. Curse him for having the grace of a cat and deft, cool hands.
And now I am having the same argument on paper that I have in my own head on too many nights. I know my choice is sensible, but it isn't my common sense I think with, those times Rosto's stolen a kiss from me.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Tamora Pierce, Bloodhound
He did not care if she was heartless, vicious and vulgar, stupid and grasping, he loved her. He would rather have misery with one than happiness with the other.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by W. Somerset Maugham, Of Human Bondage
Well, that depends, I suppose. I heard someone once say that men dance the same way they have sex. So, if you want everyone here to think you're the kind of guy who just sits around and—"
He stood up. "Let's dance.
Romantic Quotes And Sayings by Richelle Mead, Succubus Blues
You guessed? You must have been pretty sure, considering you could have killed me."
"I was ninety percent sure."
"I see," Clary said. There must have been something in her voice, because he turned to look at her. Her hand cracked across his face, a slap that rocked him back on his heels. He put his hands on his cheek, more in surprise than pain.
"What the hell was that for?"
"The other ten percent.
